Can't rest without guilt.

That list going off right as your head hits the pillow.

The million brilliant ideas that only show up in the shower, never at your desk.

This month at The Common Space, I'm talking about Why High-Achieving Women Can't Shut Off: The Hidden Cost of Running on Override.

Please sign up. Link is in the bio, I'll see you soon.

That list that never fully turns off.

Second-guessing yourself even when you already know the right answer.

Saying yes when you meant no. Saying no when you meant yes.

If any of that sounds familiar, you're exactly who this talk is for.

Years ago, if you'd told me I was on the verge of burnout, I would have told you to go get F'd.

Why would I believe that. I knew how to self-care. I set boundaries. I'd done the mindfulness-based stress reduction training. I had all the skills.

I was coping. I was managing.

Here's your reminder...

If you're a capable, independent, intelligent woman who knows all the right things and still finds yourself snapping at little things, or standing in a room not knowing what to do next, you might be overworking, overthinking, and overriding yourself.

I'm here to help.

Late thank you to Myrlene for her “Freedom by Design” presentation at The Common Space last week, but some things take a little time to settle, and honestly, that feels fitting.

She said something that stopped me mid-sentence: a cluttered home isn’t filled with possessions. It’s filled with postponed decisions.

And then this: everything we hold onto begins asking something from us, quietly, every single day. We tell ourselves “out of sight, out of mind,” but she called it what it is. We just get good at pretending.

Myrlene’s framework, Mindfulism, isn’t about owning less for the sake of less. It’s about choosing, on purpose, what is enough to support the life you’re actually building. She flipped the question from “where can we put this?” to “does this belong in the life we’re creating?”

Your home should reflect the life you want to live. Not the life you’re no longer living. That one landed.

Her Freedom by Design process moves through Discover → Detach → Discern → Decide → Design. It’s not a one-time purge. It’s a way of thinking.

James Clear says “you don’t rise to the level of your goals, you fail to the level of your systems.” Myrlene is building the system for your space, and by extension, your mind.

Thank you for the inspiring chat, Myrlene Myrlene | Small Space Enthusiast đŸ«¶đŸŒâł

Your space isn’t neutral. It’s either supporting your life... or quietly asking something from you every day.

This Wednesday, Myrlene Sundberg is introducing Mindfulismℱ - a powerful new philosophy that goes beyond minimalism vs. maximalism. It’s about intentionally choosing what deserves space in your life, so your home reduces your mental load and aligns with who you are now.

In this free session you’ll learn the Mindfulismℱ Method:
đŸ”č NOTICE: what’s in your space, and what is it asking from you?
đŸ”č ALIGN: does it support your routines and direction?
đŸ”č ALLOW: choose what stays, let go of what doesn’t

Plus, every attendee gets a free takeaway resource: “10 Questions to Reduce What Your Space Is Asking From You”

Drawing on 48+ years in design, Myrlene created Mindfulismℱ and the Freedom By Design method to help people design spaces that truly support how they live.

What if your home isn’t supporting you - but quietly asking something from you every day?

In this transformative talk, Myrlene introduces Mindfulismℱ, a powerful philosophy that shifts the conversation beyond minimalism and maximalism.

Instead of focusing on having less or more, Mindfulism is about intentionally choosing what deserves space in your life - so your environment supports you, reduces mental load, and aligns with who you are now.

A big thank you to for such a thoughtful and collaborative session last night at The Common Space.

From websites and social media to strategy, clarity, and intentional online presence
 there were so many great conversations and questions around the room.

One of the best parts of these evenings is the shared learning, collaboration, and camaraderie that happens naturally when people come together with curiosity and openness.

This is exactly what The Common Space is all about đŸ€
