We’re joined by Professor Jane Hamlett, a leading expert in the history of the British home and domestic life. Jane is a Professor of Modern British History at Royal Holloway, University of London, and her research shines a light on how our homes—and our relationships with the things inside them—have evolved.

In this episode, we dive into Swedish Death Cleaning. Despite its dramatic name, it’s a gentle, reflective approach to decluttering that helps reduce the burden on loved ones after we’re gone. We also touch on finding your own rhythm with decluttering methods—from the KonMari method to our own to Reset Your Home System—and the power of community in helping you succeed. Ultimately, Swedish Death Cleaning teaches us to lighten the load for others—but the real transformation happens when we lighten it for ourselves.
