Have you ever had something sitting by your front door or in the garage for months because you might sell it… but never actually do? 🙋‍♀️ I’ve been there. And friend, it’s not just about time or willpower. Your brain is wired to make this hard.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the two psychological traps that keep us stuck in “maybe I’ll list it” limbo (and why you’re not lazy or broken for struggling). I’ll walk you through a simple gut check that will tell you whether it’s time to sell, donate, or finally let it go, plus the exact experiment I use to cut through the indecision and reclaim my peace.

If you’ve ever been haunted by a “still need to sell it” pile, this one’s for you.

What You'll Learn:

  • The two psychological traps that keep you clinging to stuff you swear you’ll sell
  • A simple gut-check exercise that cuts through the mental clutter
  • How to run my 1-week “price-drop experiment” to get unstuck
  • Why sometimes the best ROI isn’t cash; it’s peace, time, and breathing room
