00:00–02:30 Meet Miriam. Digital and physical organizing share the same roots. “Know where you keep things” matters more than perfection.
02:30–05:30 Order in the chaos, the noisy keychain story, and why designated spots matter more than perfect labels.
05:30–07:30 Travel, transitions, and why routines matter when life is in motion.
08:00–10:30 Miriam’s Venn: home, work, and spirit combine to create joy, love, and possibility. You belong at the center.
10:30–14:30 How she helps clients “sneak up” on the dream when they can’t yet see it, using questions that unlock intention.
14:30–17:00 Starting a business the sustainable way: part-time ramp, savings, and curiosity instead of rigid milestones.
17:00–19:30 Building a presence: LinkedIn, Alignable, local meetups, and being nominated for Small Business Person of the Year.
19:00–21:30 What she actually does: a “simplicity expert” connecting organization, productivity, and money mindset for home, office, and aging-in-place.
21:30–23:30 Hoarding versus situational clutter, why TV-style fixes rarely last, and why real change needs follow-up.
23:30–24:00 Mid-roll channel reminder and pivot to emotional triggers.
24:00–29:00 Triggers segment: lived experience with PTSD and early trauma, therapy, coping, and the survival rule of “don’t fall apart in public.”
29:00–34:30 Identifying triggers like “being talked down to” and the long, patient work of regulating emotional responses.
38:00–41:30 “What other people think of you is none of your business.” Naming emotions and not assuming tone over text.
53:00–56:30 Practical sensory strategies: earplugs, sunglasses, fabric choices, and “microdosing” exposure to tough environments.
59:00–61:00 Progress over perfection, staying in conversation, earning trust over time, and practicing the “be better” mindset.
