Summary

What is 'cleanish?' For me, it's a flexible, realistic approach to maintaining a tidy home. In this episode I'll walk you through creating your own cleaning manifesto, which helps you prioritize what truly matters and ditch the overwhelming 'shoulds' of cleaning. I'll share personal tips and tricks on how to simplify, break down, and systemize your cleaning tasks so they're easier to manage, even in the busiest seasons of life. Whether it's dealing with clutter, tackling deep cleaning, or just staying on top of daily chores, you'll find practical advice to make your home feel more comfortable and welcoming.
