Limiting Choice
When does limiting choice actually bring greater freedom?
When your head is already full, too many choices or options can be incredibly overwhelming.
Your capacity on any given day can be increased when you put some limits on your own choices. You might create a framework that you can overlay on decisions so you have a natural default and then you have the freedom to change, or you might create systems in your life to simplify decision making.
This week think about how you already limit choices for yourself to free up much needed mental space, and come and share them with our podcast community on Facebook - allow us to learn from you and you might pick up some tricks for yourself!

Peter Walsh: Letting Go
Peter talks this week about being an advocate for people when you are invited into their homes. How Professional Organisers are there to help you achieve the life you want, and how he is committed to doing everything in his capacity to help you, even when you feel unable to help yourself.
Our lives are stages, and the stuff we hold onto are representations of those seasons. Even though it's hard to let go of things from our past, it frees us up to live today and celebrate the past without having it hold us back.
We also discuss the power of empathy, how to work with clients without judgement, and what it looks like to be a 'hope bringer' to those we work with.
