Episode Description from the Publisher

I hate housework. I'm an absolute mess by nature, and I have been my entire life. The only reason my house functions is that somewhere along the way I stopped trying to fix myself and started building the house around the person I actually am. Because everyone thinks organised people are disciplined. I'm not organised because I'm disciplined. I'm organised because I know exactly how useless I am at the tired end of the day... and I plan for her. These are my actual top five home organisation hacks after ten years of being the organisation girl online. Every tip is Kmart-level cheap, fast to set up, and has survived two kids and an ADHD brain. This episode is for you if: You're convinced you just need "more discipline" and then your house will finally stay tidy The floordrobe, the paper pile and the mystery fridge leftovers are all personally attacking you You want systems that survive kids, work and an ADHD brain... not a Pinterest pantry In this episode I break down: The wear-again hook: end the floordrobe with a two-second home for worn-but-not-dirty clothes Family documents organisation: the viral suspension file box (passports, birth certificates, insurance... one findable spot) Kids artwork storage: one file per year per kid + the guilt-free artwork cull The catch-all basket system: one per person + our BBB rule (bedrooms, bathrooms, basket) Caddies for everything: morning, night, tan, makeup + the kids' hair caddy going 8 years strong The ‘Use Me First’ fridge shelf: the food waste hack worth ~$1,500 a year The 3 Doable Home rules: decide once · one motion · in sight or it doesn't exist … Follow Stephing Up I’m Steph Pase, your (somewhat) organised bestie in your ears.
