I’m Diana, host of Even The Dog Has ADHD, and this first conversation of Season Two is with professional organiser and KonMari consultant Caroline Thor. She supports neurodivergent families to create homes that truly work for their brains, homes that feel calm, functional, and kind.If you’ve ever looked around and thought, it’s not the mess, it’s me, this episode will remind you it isn’t. Clutter isn’t laziness; it’s overload. Together we explore the emotional weight of our environments, how ADHD and autism shape the way we use space, and why letting go — physically and emotionally — can make room for peace and presence.In this episode we talk about:• Why clutter builds when our brains are already overloaded• How clutter can significantly impact family dynamics and emotional well-being• The link between shame, sensory needs, and home life• Why the KonMari method is not a one-size-fits-all solution, and how to personalise it• Decluttering as an ongoing process rather than a one-time event• How letting go of items with gratitude can ease the emotional burden of decluttering• The importance of understanding executive dysfunction for effective organisation• Creating realistic routines to manage household tasks with less stress• How emotional attachments to items can complicate the process• The role of community support in providing accountability and encouragement• Why mindset shifts are essential for lasting change• How starting small can lead to significant changes over time• And why “put the damn thing away” became Caroline’s favourite form of self-careFind out more about my beautiful WONDERLAND program that I designed for neurodivergent minds and for the deep feelers and thinkers. https://eventhedoghasadhd.com/work-with-meAND check out Caroline Thor's website - she's a brilliant Professional Organizer & Certified KonMari® Consultanthttps://www.caroline-thor.com/
