Description
Are you struggling to find time to maintain a tidy house? Feeling overwhelmed by the mental load of managing your home while little ones require your attention? Looking for practical solutions to maximize your space? You are in the right place friend! This podcast will teach you how to maximize your time, ensure everyone in your home can locate their items efficiently, and create an intentional environment for you and your family. This is possible all while taking care of those sweet little ones and maintaining your own sanity. I’m telling you, it's all connected! Hi! I’m Katie, a wife, professional organizer and SAHM whose littles are not so little anymore. A few years back, after some unexpected, fast-moving life circumstances, our home was in a state of clutter and chaos. After two years of doing nothing and drowning in survival mode, I decided enough was enough. My turning point was that I finally made the connection between my feelings of overwhelm and the visual and physical clutter in our space. I knew I had the organization skills, but I needed a game plan. Using intentional short pockets of time, I was able to declutter, organize, and simplify our home. We also established automated daily habits that helped our days flow and function so much better. If you are ready to create an easy-to-tidy home and enjoy the benefits of an organized space, this podcast is for you. This is a process, but I am honored to walk through it with you. Welcome to The Organized SAHM. Make sure you have your comfy clothes on, and let’s get started!

21. Drowning as a SAHM with No Time? 3 Steps to Simplify Your Home so it's Easy to Maintain
2026/09/29
Do you feel like there is never enough time to actually get your home under control? You declutter, but somehow more stuff keeps showing up. You organize something, only to realize you put it in a place that makes absolutely no sense, or worse, you forgot where you put it. And by the end of the day, you're exhausted—not just because of what you did to care for your family, but because of everything you had to think about, manage, move, and store along the way.
In today's episode, I'm giving you three simple steps to simplify your home when you're stressed, overwhelmed, and short on time. By the end of this episode, I want you to realize that you don't need to do everything. So if you feel like you're drowning and you don't have anything left to give, take a deep breath, grab a snack and stay with me. Let’s unpack this together!

20. Decluttering Won't Work Until You Fix This One Thing First
2026/09/22
Have you ever looked around your home and thought, “I cannot keep doing this anymore”? You're tired of picking up the same things over and over, tired of the clutter, tired of feeling behind, and tired of never feeling like your home is actually working for you. And somewhere deep down, you know there has to be a better way. You are correct.
Here’s the secret: the thing keeping you stuck and exhausted isn't that you don't know how to declutter or that you are disorganized or that you are terrible at managing your time. In today’s episode, I am uncovering what that one thing is that might be keeping you trapped and sharing simple action steps that you can take to see transformation in your own home this week.
So if you're at that place today—if you're saying, “I'm done. I can't live like this anymore. I'm ready for something different”—this episode is for you. Let’s dig into this together!

19. Can't Get Your Family to Help Keep the House Tidy? 4 Simple Decluttering Habits That Actually Stick
2026/09/15
Are you constantly picking up after everyone in your house and wondering, “Why am I the only one who cares if this place stays tidy?”
Maybe you've tried asking your kids to clean up. Maybe you've yelled. Maybe you've threatened consequences. Maybe you've simply given up and decided, “It's easier if I just do it myself.”
I get it. Getting kids to do anything (especially something new or uncomfortable) can be challenging.
Here’s something to consider. What if we've accidentally created homes that are actually too difficult for our children to manage?
Too many toys. Too many clothes. Too many books. No clear place for things to go. Expectations that don't match their age or ability. And then we wonder why they aren't taking responsibility.
In this episode, I'm giving you four simple decluttering habits that can actually stick—and as a former first-grade teacher, I'm going to show you how to think about your home the same way you would think about setting a child up for success in the classroom.
We're also going to talk about the hard parts.
What do you do when your child throws a fit? When you're exhausted? When it's honestly easier to just do it yourself? When your child pushes back against a new expectation?
If you're tired of feeling like the only person responsible for keeping your home together, you're going to want to listen to this one.

18. The Real Reason Your Home Feels Messy (This Might Surprise You)
2026/09/08
What if the reason your home feels messy has very little to do with how well you clean?
What if the clutter, the unfinished projects, the piles, the constant feeling that you're behind are actually giving you a glimpse into something happening inside of you?
Now, I'm not saying a messy kitchen means you're a mess. And I'm definitely not saying that if your home isn't organized, you've somehow failed as a mom.
But I do believe there's a connection between our physical environment, our internal environment or beliefs.
In today's episode, we're going to look at where you've become disconnected, the lies that may be keeping you in survival mode, and how you can begin rewiring your thinking with truth so you can experience something different. Let's dive in together!

Before your feet even hit the floor, your mind is racing—What needs to be done today? Who needs me? What did I forget? How am I going to get everything accomplished? What interruption am I going to have to deal with?

What if your morning could set the tone instead of the chaos setting it for you? What if your evening could help you close the day instead of carrying today's chaos into tomorrow? And what if just a few simple habits could make your entire day feel just a little bit lighter? Let's talk about how to create a household rhythm that works for your real life.

15. Is Your Mental Load Out of Control? 3 Simple Habits to Tidy, Organize, and Breathe Again
2026/08/18
Have you ever felt like your brain has 82 tabs open? You’re thinking about the laundry, the groceries, the kids’ schedules, the appointment you forgot to make, the text you still need to answer, the thing you promised someone you would do… and then you look around your house and realize the clutter outside of you is starting to mirror the clutter inside of you.
In today's episode, we're talking about three simple ways to begin clearing up your mental load. And we're going deeper than productivity hacks, because as moms, we don't want to simply create a less busy life. We want to become intentional about the life God is inviting us to live in this season.
So if you feel stretched thin, overscheduled, overcommitted, or like you can never quite catch your breath, this episode is for you. Let's clear some mental clutter, make room for what matters, and learn how to breathe again.
