EPISODE DESCRIPTION

What if decluttering wasn't just about tidying up… but about reclaiming yourself?

In this lively and eye-opening episode, Dorota Kuldo reveals how clearing your space can also clear your mind — helping you step into retirement feeling lighter, freer, and full of new energy. Her unique approach combines mindset, nervous system regulation, and simple, realistic strategies that make decluttering feel surprisingly doable (and even enjoyable).

We dive into why so many women postpone decluttering — how emotions are tied to physical clutter, and why regulating your nervous system makes the process gentler and more effective. Dorota's fresh perspective helps you see decluttering not as a chore, but as a gateway to feeling lighter, freer, and more energized — both inside and out.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by "too much stuff" or unsure where to start, this conversation will give you the tools and inspiration to finally let go — without guilt, frustration, or exhaustion.

By the end, you'll see decluttering as more than a task… it's an invitation to create space for what's next, age youthfully, and live your retirement with renewed joy and purpose.

AFFIRMATION of the MONTH:

"As I declutter my life, I open up space to receive the support and comfort that I need".

GUEST BIO

Dorota Kuldo is a decluttering coach, podcast host, and creator of the Clutter Freedom method — a unique approach that helps women finally break free from a lifetime of clutter. Unlike traditional advice that focuses only on stuff, Dorota blends mindset, nervous system regulation, and simple, brain-friendly strategies to make decluttering feel doable, stress-free, and lasting.

Her own story began when she decluttered 70% of her belongings in just six months while working two full time jobs. What started as a personal experiment quickly became her life's work: helping other women experience the same freedom, clarity, and energy that comes from letting go of what no longer serves them.
