Why Your Clutter Is Crushing Your Confidence—And How to Fix It with Nettie Haines

Capture Your Confidence

Ever feel like your clutter is quietly chipping away at your confidence? You're not alone—and today's guest knows exactly how to help. This week, we’re joined by Nettie Haines, founder of The Grit Method, a home organization company that’s doing far more than just prettying up pantries. Nettie shares her unique journey from political campaign manager to professional organizer, and how building systems in the chaos of life can empower you in more ways than one. We talk about why clutter impacts your mental health, how to get your kids on board with decluttering, and the real reason it’s so hard to let go of stuff—even when you want to. If you’re craving peace and confidence at home, this one’s a must-listen. Today we cover:

• Nettie’s unconventional path to launching The Grit Method
• How our physical environment impacts our mental and emotional wellbeing
• The psychological roadblocks to decluttering (and how to overcome them)
• Practical strategies to reduce overwhelm and start small
• Systems that actually work for families—with real-life playroom examples
