The Weight of Clutter

Walking through an antique store, I’m reminded how every piece carries a story — some well-loved, some waiting to be rediscovered. Life often works the same way. We hold on to habits, obligations, and goals collected over time. Some still hold great value. Others weigh us down. When we pause to ask what really matters, we begin to see the difference between what enriches us and what keeps us stuck.

Why Values Matter

The truth? Many people never define their values. They keep grinding, chasing milestones that look impressive but don’t bring joy. Direction without values is motion without meaning.

Questions to Ask Yourself

  • What do I truly care about?

  • Which parts of my day give me energy instead of draining me?

  • If I stripped life down, what would I keep?

Like walking through aisles of antiques, life requires thoughtful choosing. Some things are worth keeping. Others, it’s time to let go. Dust off your values, step off the wheel, and choose a direction that actually feels right.

Coaching helps you uncover what matters and clear the clutter so your energy goes where it counts.
