OCU 23: Spring Cleaning

In this episode, we dive into the do’s and don'ts of spring cleaning. While it’s tempting to tackle organization during your deep clean, I’m here to tell you—don’t! Focus on cleaning first, and save organizing for later. If you come across stray items while cleaning, toss them in a "lost and found" bin and keep going. The goal is to clean up forgotten spaces like mattresses, windows, and appliances without getting sidetracked.

We also talk about creating a plan that works for you, whether you tackle it all at once or break it down over several days. A checklist, a timer, and a clear schedule can help you stay on track and avoid overwhelm. Remember, it’s about progress, not perfection—so embrace the small wins, and you'll see results.
