How to Break Parenting Cycles and Build the Legacy You Want with Dr. Cassidy Freitas

Potty training can be stressful! The standoffs, the accidents, the power struggles and more. Andrea Olson, founder of Go Diaper Free, has helped over 100,000 families take the pressure out of it, with fewer diapers and a fraction of the stuff the baby aisle says you need. In this episode she walks us through what actually works, what you can skip entirely, and how to start from wherever you are right now. In this episode: → What elimination communication is, and how it works → Where the "wait until they're ready" advice came from, and what happens when families start earlier → The potty training supplies you actually need, and the ones you can skip → The simplest way to start this week, even if your first try didn't stick → How to share this with your daughter or daughter-in-law without overstepping Find Andrea: 📲 Follow Andrea on Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/godiaperfree/ 🩲 Tiny Undies → tinyundies.com 📘 Go Diaper Free, the EC book → godiaperfree.com/thebook 📗 The Tiny Potty Training Book → godiaperfree.com/ptbook 🎧 The Go Diaper Free Podcast → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-go-diaper-free-podcast/id663607202 💛 Courses, books, challenges and Q+As → godiaperfree.com/community 🎯 Take the free Decluttering Style Quiz + get your custom 3-step action plan → home.katyjoywells.com/quiz 📩 Join the Internet's Most Fun Declutter Newsletter: Ready, Set, Simplify → home.katyjoywells.com/simplifynewsletter 🧡 Join Clutter Cure Club: The Only Membership Designed to Keep Your Home Clutter-Free For Good → home.katyjoywells.com/cluttercureclub 📕 Order My Book, Making Home Your Happy Place → home.katyjoywells.com/declutterwithouttheoverwhelm 📲 Follow me On Insta → instagram.com/katyjoywells

You know that feeling when you're standing in front of a closet full of clothes and somehow still thinking, "I have nothing to wear"? In this episode, we're talking about why a packed closet can make getting dressed way harder and why buying one more "perfect" piece usually doesn't fix it. I'm sharing what my much smaller 90s closet taught me about creativity, why we've been taught how to shop but not how to style, and how constantly consuming other people's version of "cool" can leave you with a wardrobe that doesn't actually feel anything like you. And if your closet feels overwhelming because you're not sure what to keep or why letting go feels so hard, take my free Decluttering Style Quiz! In just two minutes, you'll discover your clutter type and get a customized 3-step action plan to help you move forward. Take the quiz at home.katyjoywells.com/quiz

Deciding, planning, shopping, cooking, and cleaning which is exactly why weeknights can feel as heavy as they do.

If you've ever felt like you need to duplicate yourself just to keep up with all the appointments, meals, laundry, and mental gymnastics of running your home, this conversation is for you. Kelly Hubbell, founder of Sage Haus, wrote down every job it takes to run her household and it came out to more than 20 hours a week (!!!!) In this episode, Kelly breaks down exactly what a house manager is, why this kind of support isn't reserved for wealthy families, and how you can start small with just a few hours per week.
