270 | Housework Haters: How to Turn Your Rebellion Into Radical Self-Care
Hy Friends, Do you ever feel like rebelling against housework is your way of saying “I’m not playing this game”? 🙋♀️ Maybe you leave the dishes, ignore the laundry, or let the clutter pile up because it feels like freedom. Here’s the paradox: sometimes saying no to chores is self-love. And sometimes saying yes to chores is also self-love. The key isn’t the task—it’s the energy and mindset you bring to it. In this episode of Declutter Your Chaos, I’ll show you how to: ✨ Recognize when skipping chores is actually an act of rebellion that honors your needs. ✨ Reframe cleaning as a radical act of self-love (instead of an obligation). ✨ Use one simple question before every task: Am I rebelling through self-love, or am I tending through self-love? ✨ Shift your mindset so that even ordinary chores become an opportunity to recharge, restore, and remind yourself of your worth. We’ll dig into research on motivation, stress, and cognitive reframing—and I’ll give you approachable practices to help you check your energy in the moment. Because when you change the why behind your chores, you change the way you feel in your home. So whether you’re resisting housework or craving order, this episode will help you find peace in the paradox.

269 | I Have to Get Rid of This!?!? | How to Transform Decluttering from a Chore to a Privilege
Ever feel like decluttering is just one more chore on your endless to-do list? In this episode, I share the story of moving into a new neighborhood, feeling completely alone, and how a simple plate of cookies helped me shift my energy from isolation to connection. Decluttering works the same way. When we reframe it from “I have to get rid of this” to “I get to give this,” the whole process transforms. Instead of feeling like drudgery, letting go becomes a privilege — a chance to create space, share abundance, and invite new energy into your life. If you’ve ever struggled to stay motivated while decluttering, this perspective shift will change everything.

About Declutter Your Chaos - Minimalism, Decluttering, Home Organization
Welcome to Declutter Your Chaos, the podcast for women who are ready to take control of their homes and their lives. I'm Amber, and I know firsthand what it feels like to live in a house full of clutter while juggling work, kids, and a million other demands.
This isn’t about perfection or Pinterest-worthy pantries.
This is about reclaiming your space—and your peace.
Each episode blends practical, bite-sized decluttering strategies with a mindful, no-nonsense approach to the deeper emotional patterns that keep you stuck. We’ll uncover the “why” behind the clutter, reset your habits, and help you create a home that actually supports the life you want to live.
You’ll learn how to:
Declutter in realistic steps (even if you only have 15 minutes)
Interrupt overwhelm and self-sabotage with compassion and awareness
Create systems that stick—because they’re built around you, not what Instagram says your home should look like
Whether your clutter is physical, mental, or emotional, you're not alone—and you're not broken.
You're just ready for a change.
Let’s do this together.
Welcome to Declutter Your Chaos.
xo, Amber
