Michael Spencer on Decluttering and Purifying
If all your “stuff” is sapping your energy, this episode of Woman Worriers is for you. Host Elizabeth Cush interviews Michael Spencer, a Virtual Home Energy Coach, about how to declutter your home to make space for what really matters.
“We’re learning to tune in internally to what feels right to keep, what feels right to let go.”
Show Notes:
Do you have a counter or table piled high with catalogs and other stuff that came in the mail? A closet or dresser drawer that you have to dig through to find the shirt you’re looking for? A room that makes you want to close the door and walk away? In the course of a lifetime, we can acquire a lot of stuff, and living with it can take a lot of energy and cause a lot of anxiety. In this episode of the Woman Worriers podcast, host Elizabeth Cush, LCPC of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., talks with Michael Spencer, founder of Let’s Purify! Holistic Decluttering, who draws on her background in mental health and mindfulness to coach people who want to transform the energy of their lives and their homes. Her unique practice of home decluttering and purifying is designed to help you better understand yourself and the things that you choose to carry with you in your life.
