Today we're going to get a little intense. We are talking not only about chronic

disorganization but also the pressure both internal and external that women face today

to be at all and to do it all to manage our house and to raise

kids and to be a wife and to work and earn money and there's so much it can feel suffocating and if you're already struggling with

organization and clutter this is magnified so you are in for a treat because today I am talking with Dr. Regina Lark. She is not only a professional

organizer and a keynote speaker. She owns a business called a clear path helping thousands of women

overcome chronic disorganization but she's also a doctor of women's history so she's coming from a doctor of women's history. So she's coming from a place of really

understanding the pressure and the stress that women face and I am so ecstatic

to talk with her right now. So welcome Regina, welcome to the

Clutterbug podcast. Thank you so much for being here. Thanks for inviting me.

This is so exciting.

I'm actually really thrilled to talk to you because not only are you a professional organizer with so much experience and knowledge and you really specialize in like ADHD strategies which I love but I'm

mostly excited that you have your PhD in women history because this is something I don't get to talk about with a lot of

guests that I would love to talk about with you which is this pressure that's being put on women. I think it's even magnified today because of

social media to do it all and be at all. And so not only do we have the

physical tasks that we have to tackle

but we have the mental load that we carry and all the invisible tasks

and now we have the pressure to be amazing

because we see all these other women in their perfect houses, in their

perfect bodies, with their perfect children, and their perfect careers.

And it's like, why can't I manage to get the dishes done.

Well I'm going to encourage your listeners to really disrupt the narrative on the word perfect.
