Have you ever thought, “I’ve made progress… but now I’m stuck”?

In this episode, I share why decluttering often hits a wall after you’ve already done a lot of work—and how I use mind mapping to create one clear project list that restores focus and peace.

I walk through how I use this tool with clients to track priorities, progress, and next steps, why it works neurologically, and how planning supports faith-filled follow-through instead of overwhelm.

If you’re a Christian mom in a busy or transitional season and you’re craving clarity so you can move forward again, this episode is for you.

In this short devotional-style episode, I reflect on how good, meaningful responsibilities can quietly compete for our attention — and how God gently calls us back when our priorities drift.

Drawing from Exodus 20:3, this episode explores what it means to put God first in full seasons of life: post-holiday busyness, work and ministry commitments, family rhythms, early-year goals, and the subtle habits that pull us away from presence and rest.

Through a personal story and Scripture-centered reflection, I am inviting you to pause, examine what has taken first place, and consider how obedience, wisdom, and faith shape everyday choices — even the small ones.

This episode is part of a growing series of shorter devotional reflections designed to create space for Scripture, prayer, and real-life application in the middle of ordinary days.

Praying this meets you where you need.

Most of us don’t decide to declutter because we feel inspired or motivated. We decide because something finally breaks.

If clutter has reached a breaking point in your home—or in your heart—I want you to hear this clearly: you haven’t failed. God is meeting you here.

In this episode, I’m sharing gentle, experience-based suggestions for beginning the decluttering process in a calmer, more faithful way. These are not steps or rules. They are universal principles I’ve seen support real people in real homes—especially midlife moms and empty nesters who are tired of pushing and ready to steward their homes with God instead of striving on their own.

We talk about why the breaking point is often awareness, not weakness—and how God uses these moments to invite us into clarity, obedience, and rest.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• • Why reaching a breaking point doesn’t disqualify you—it often means God is getting your attention

  • How anchoring your decisions in God’s Word (not your emotions) brings steadiness and peace

  • The hidden cost of urgency, decision fatigue, and trying to do this in your own strength

  • When God may be inviting you to pause instead of push forward

  • How obedience, simplicity, and structure can quietly support faithfulness in daily life

  Decluttering is not just about removing things.

• It’s about releasing control, renewing your mind, and making room for what God is doing in this season.

Praying over your next steps!

Remodeling your home should make life easier—but for many homeowners, the overwhelm starts long before construction begins.

Between endless choices, unclear priorities, Pinterest overload, and fear of costly mistakes, decision fatigue can take over before a single wall comes down.

In this episode, I’m joined by Jen Orr, founder of Studio Red Interior Design and host of the podcast Preparing for Your Home Remodel. Jen specializes in helping homeowners slow down, plan intentionally, and design homes that truly support real life—especially in busy, family-heavy households.

We talk about why starting with **function—not finishes—**is the key to a smoother, smarter renovation and how having the right systems in place can save time, money, and stress.

Moving into a new home is more than a physical transition — it’s a spiritual and practical one too!

In this episode, we’re talking about what happens after the move. Not preparing a home for sale. Not decluttering months ahead of time. But the moment when everything you owned made the journey, and you’re standing in a new space asking: What actually belongs here now?

We begin with Scripture as a reminder that our identity is not found in the things we own — or even in the home we’ve been blessed with — but in Christ. From there, we walk through clear, practical steps to help you organize your new home in a way that reflects your current season of life.

This episode will help you slow down, set intention, and organize with clarity rather than overwhelm. Praying over this new chapter for you!

The empty nest season often brings more than quiet — it brings questions.

Why does organizing suddenly feel heavier? Why do old systems stop working? And why do thoughts like “I should be further along” show up so loudly now?

In this episode, Kristina sits down with professional organizer Tracy Hoth of Simply Squared Away to explore how our internal dialogue — what Tracy calls “soundtracks” — directly influences our ability to declutter and stay organized.

Rather than offering quick fixes or rigid systems, Tracy shares how long-held identity statements can quietly sabotage progress, and why this season of life is an invitation to adopt new ways of thinking. You’ll hear real client examples, practical mindset reframes, and encouragement for anyone who feels stuck, behind, or overwhelmed by what’s been left behind after the kids leave home.

This conversation also weaves in faith, and grace — reframing organizing as a practice we walk through with God, not a standard we have to live up to.

If you’re navigating the empty nest and wondering what comes next for your home — and your heart — this episode will meet you right where you are. Praying over your New Year!

Have you ever noticed how much pressure shows up around the new year — to reset, refocus, and figure everything out all at once?

This episode is a pause before the rush!

In this end-of-year episode of the Organized On Purpose Podcast, I’m recapping the Top 10 most-listened episodes of the year — the conversations listeners returned to most when life felt full and decisions felt heavy.

Together, these episodes point to what many of us have been navigating: overwhelm, full seasons, decision fatigue, and a desire to move forward without burning out.

In this episode, I:

• Walk through each of the Top 10 episodes with a brief description

• Share a few personal reflections on growth, pauses, and what helped most

• Offer a look at what’s coming next, including new guest conversations, a short health-focused series, and a supportive decluttering reset in January

Whether you’re stepping into a quieter season of life, raising a family, or simply trying to figure out what’s next, this episode is meant to help you move into the new year with intention and clarity — without pressure to do everything at once.

When good things become too much, it’s often not because we’re doing the wrong things — but because we’re doing too many of the right ones.

In this re-aired episode of the Organized On Purpose Podcast, we’re talking about the quiet burnout that happens when we say yes out of guilt, obligation, or fear of disappointing others, rather than out of discernment.

Many women who love to serve find themselves with schedules filled with meaningful commitments — meetings, projects, ministries, and responsibilities that once felt like blessings. Over time, those good things can begin to drain us and crowd out the rest, margin, and clarity we need to thrive in this season.

In this episode, I gently walk you through three questions for faithful discernment to help you pause before your next yes and ask:

• Is this life-giving or depleting?

• Am I responding out of guilt or obedience?

• Does this align with what God is asking of me right now?

We talk about:

• The hidden cost of always saying yes

• Why guilt is not a healthy guide

• The difference between serving faithfully and overgiving

• How to say no without shame

• Creating rhythms that support what God is calling you to in this season

This episode is for women who want to live faithfully, serve generously, and still have space to breathe — without burning out.
