Hey, it's your friend Mel, and welcome to the Mel Robbins Podcast. I have to tell you something you may not know about me. I am a slob. I mean, it's almost embarrassing and something I would rather not talk about, but the time has come for me and you to face this issue head on. If you have people coming over any time soon and you would rather they not get past the welcome mat, or if you just have parts of your house, for me, it's like the bathroom dirt or the laundry room that are hidden disasters, shut the door. Chris, you know, when the company's going to sit right next to me right now because you're not alone and you are in the right place, you and I have got to talk about clutter because clutter weighs you down mentally and physically. I mean, just think about it. When you walk into a room that's packed with stuff or you open up a drawer and you can't find what you're looking for, your brain feels it. You may be in your car looking at old soda cups or tissues that are left from the day before this was me this morning. I had to find some my car and I'm like, how long have those coffee cups been in the back seat? Or you may be in the house or office looking at a cluttered counter or kitchen. Just take a second to notice. Isn't that clutter weighing you down? I'm here to tell you, it's not only weighing you down, it's holding you back. No, you do not need to buy more storage bins to hide the mess. You don't need to take a trip to the big store to get organized or color code anything. Start cleaning up your act. You can take back your home and your life with a few simple decluttering steps that actually work in real life for real people like you and me. When I think of fall, I think of a couple things. I think of the first school drop off, the first sweater, weather day, the first chilly evening around the fire pit and our sponsor LL Bean. For over a hundred years, LL Bean has been part of these traditions, crunching leaves and mane made bean boots, cheering from the sidelines and scotch plaid flannel, and walking the dog in a rugged field coat. Go grab the layers you love and the people you love and get outside. Visit LL Bean dot com to shop the fall collection. LL Bean, be an outsider. The Mel Robbins podcast is brought to you by Expedia.
