If you’ve ever opened a closet and felt like it was judging you… this one’s for you.
In this episode of Sherapy with Sheri Todd, Sheri takes on clutter — the physical, emotional, and even spiritual kind. She shares her own experience cleaning out her mom’s home, what it taught her about love and legacy, and how clutter can quietly drain our peace and energy.
You’ll learn:
✅ Why clutter raises stress and messes with your mental health
✅ What “Swedish Death Cleaning” really means (and why it’s not morbid at all)
✅ How to start small and finally make progress
✅ When to call in help — from family, friends, or a pro at NAPO.net
📚 Books Mentioned
- The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning — Margareta Magnusson
- Decluttering at the Speed of Life — Dana K. White
- The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up — Marie Kondo
