In this episode of Enthusiastic Encouragement & Dubious Advice, Patricia and Nicole discuss their recent efforts to declutter their home, reflecting on the emotional and practical benefits of letting go of unnecessary items. They explore the challenges of self-imposed responsibility, the importance of delegating tasks, and the psychological costs of feeling obligated to keep everyone informed and cared for. The hosts also share personal stories, listener interactions, and encourage their audience to be kind to themselves, delegate when possible, and find joy in small accomplishments.
