Summary
In this episode of Decluttering Untangled, Heather Tingle discusses the often unspoken issue of the 'mask' people wear at home, particularly in relation to clutter and mental health. She shares her personal experiences as a late-diagnosed autistic individual and how decluttering has transformed her relationship with her home and herself. Heather emphasises the importance of feeling safe to let others into our homes, the shame associated with clutter, and the need for connection and support. She encourages listeners to drop the shame and seek help, reminding them that their home does not define their worth.
