I Cleaned Out My Closet… Here’s What I Learned


Hi friend,

Last week, we breathed together through Gratitude.

This week… we’re stepping into something many of us live inside without even noticing:

Chaos. Noise. Clutter. Mental overload.
The
pile we keep walking past.


A story…

Two days ago, I stood in my closet — overwhelmed, emotional, holding things I hadn’t touched in years.

Clothes that didn’t feel like me anymore.

Pieces from seasons I’ve already healed through. Things I kept out of habit, guilt, or… just because they’d always been there.

So instead of stuffing the feeling back down,
I sat in it. And I chose calm.

One hanger.
One shirt.
One shelf at a time.

And slowly — the chaos softened.

Not because life was suddenly easy, but because I made space inside a room where my nervous system could breathe again.


Maybe you’re holding chaos too.

A room you haven’t touched.
A thought you avoid.
A family dynamic that drains you.
A holiday schedule that feels like too much.

Sometimes choosing calm doesn’t look like spa days or oceans or silence…

Sometimes it looks like clearing a drawer.
Noticing your breath.
Saying one boundary out loud.
Or giving your mind 10 quiet minutes of presence.


Today, I made something for you...

Future Goodness There’s something tender about this season. ✨ I’ve been thinking a lot about future goodness (ie. hope) — and how hard it can be to believe in it when you weren’t raised to expect it. I grew up in a scarcity household. Rural Arkansas. Old cars. No air conditioning. No dishwasher.A huge garden we lived off of. Chickens we raised… and ate. 🐣 I remember hearing more than once: “Do you need that — or do you just want that?” 🤨 Dreaming ahead felt irresponsible. Planning for...
