164 \\ Slow Down, Use What You Have, and Save Money with a Spending Freeze
Friday Apr 19, 2024
Friday Apr 19, 2024
Ever feel like your spending is on autopilot? You're not alone. Between the kids' activities, quick coffee runs, and spontaneous shopping trips, it’s super easy to wonder where all your money is disappearing to. If this sounds like your everyday, maybe it's time to hit the pause button with a spending freeze.
A spending freeze isn't just about stopping all spending. It’s about making a conscious choice to slow down and really look at what you're buying. Maybe it’s using what’s already in your pantry instead of hitting the grocery store again, or pausing new purchases on things like clothes or running through the drive thru.
By doing a spending freeze, you’ll tap into your creative side to make the most of what you have, feel a real sense of achievement in saving, and become super aware of your spending habits. Plus, it’s a fantastic way to teach your kids the value of money and appreciate what they already have. Use this as an opportunity to reset your spending habits!

As an ADHD mom, managing the clutter in our homes often feels like we’re trying to hold water in our hands—no matter how hard we try, it just keeps slipping through.
We see the endless piles of laundry, the kitchen counters buried under who-knows-what, and the kids’ rooms that look like mini tornado zones.
This constant state of disarray affects our mental space, our energy, and our ability to enjoy time with our families.
Here’s the reality: our brains are wired a bit differently, and traditional organization methods that work for others might not cut it for us.
But that doesn’t mean we’re doomed to live in chaos.
It means we need a tailored approach, one that understands the unique challenges ADHD brings to the table.
This is where decluttering and systemizing come into play.
By simplifying our belongings and implementing systems designed to support our ADHD brains, we can create a home that feels more manageable and less overwhelming.

Decluttering can be emotionally hard at times!
Decluttering is especially hard for ADHD moms who lack the executive function of emotional control which is your ability to manage your feelings to achieve your goals.
It's like each object has its own story, a piece of our history, making the decision to keep or let it go feel impossible.
The guilt of letting go can be particularly paralyzing.
Maybe it's the guilt over money spent on things barely used, or the guilt from parting with gifts from loved ones.
Or perhaps it's the sadness of acknowledging that certain phases of life are over, like the baby years, as we fold away tiny onesies our children will never wear again.
These emotions can make us feel stuck, weighed down by the physical and emotional clutter in our lives.
However, learning to let go of the old makes room not just in our homes but in our hearts and minds, for new experiences, relationships, and dreams.
In this episode, I’m sharing some practical tips for how to deal with your emotions while you’re decluttering your home.
