Do you ever hold onto things “just in case” or out of guilt for letting them go? In this milestone 75th episode of The Extraordinary Everyday, we’re exploring how to shift from a scarcity mindset to an abundant mindset—starting with the spaces we live in.

Join me as we unpack why we cling to items from our past lives, including gifts we feel obligated to keep and expensive purchases we no longer need. I’ll share practical tips for letting go with gratitude, creating a home filled with things you truly love and use, and cultivating trust that your needs will always be met.

Discover how releasing the physical clutter can open up space for energy, creativity, and joy—and how generous giving can reinforce a life of abundance. Tune in to embrace the belief that you are enough and already have enough.

Highlights:

• Understanding the scarcity mindset and its impact on our homes.
• Navigating guilt and obligation tied to gifts and sentimental items.
• Letting go of expensive things without regret.
• Abundant thoughts and practical steps to declutter.
• How giving generously creates a ripple effect of abundance.

It’s time to let go of what no longer serves you and make room for the extraordinary life waiting to unfold. Let’s dive in!

In this episode of "The Extraordinary Everyday", Wendy explores two essentials we often overlook—rest and play. While modern life keeps us busy and productivity-focused, science shows that rest and play aren’t luxuries—they’re vital to our mental, emotional, and physical health. Wendy discusses the struggles many of us face when it comes to resting and having fun, sharing relatable stories about how guilt, culture, and “busy” mindsets get in the way.

Dive into fascinating studies that reveal how rest recharges our brains, improves memory, and reduces stress, while play enhances creativity, strengthens social connections, and boosts resilience. Wendy also offers practical, simple ways to incorporate more rest and play into your everyday routine, from micro-breaks and bedtime rituals to rekindling hobbies and bringing a sense of fun to daily tasks.

Tune in to discover how small moments of rest and play can profoundly impact your well-being, fueling a more joyful, balanced, and resilient life. It’s time to prioritize the things that truly bring us alive!
