306 | Kitchen Minisode | Decluttering Spices

Author: Amber Cammidge November 20, 2025 Duration: 5:57

Hey Friends,

In this mini-episode, you're going to make real progress in your kitchen by decluttering your spices. If your spice drawer or cabinet is overflowing and you want a simple win today, this is it. In this episode you'll create space, cut the chaos, and actually start using your spices again because you'll know what you have and where it is.

What You'll Do Today (Just Two Steps):
1. Alphabetize your spices and remove duplicates
Pull out your spices, line them up in alphabetical order, and combine any duplicates.

2. Toss anything expired
Check dates as you put them back. This alone clears a surprising amount of space.

How to Stay on Track:
This isn't a full-kitchen project. Don't let it domino. Stay focused on only the spices. If you have oversized bottles that don't fit with the regular ones, keep them in their own alphabetical section. You can handle two lists.

Your Quick Action Plan:
• Walk into your kitchen
• Open your spice drawer or cabinet
• Alphabetize
• Remove duplicates
• Toss expired
• Put everything back neatly

Take a deep breath and get it done — it really will only take a few minutes if you stay focused.

Share Your Progress:
Post a picture of your organized spices in the Facebook group. I'm posting mine too and can't wait to see yours.

Amber Cammidge hosts Declutter Your Chaos-Mindful Minimalism, a podcast that approaches the overwhelming task of clearing out your space with a unique blend of practicality and introspection. This isn't just about where to donate old clothes or how to fold a fitted sheet, though you'll find those tangible tips here. Instead, each conversation digs into the emotional roots of accumulation, exploring how our habits around stuff are often tied to memory, identity, or a sense of scarcity. The aim is to move beyond a one-time cleanup and foster a lasting, mindful minimalism that creates mental and physical room to breathe. You'll hear about resetting daily routines, building systems that actually work for your real life, and redefining what 'enough' truly means. Grounded in categories like self-improvement and mental health, this podcast recognizes that a calmer home directly supports a fitter, healthier, and more educated self. It's for anyone feeling weighed down by their possessions and ready to explore the quieter, more intentional life that exists just beneath the surface of the clutter. Tune in for honest talks that help you transform your environment from a source of chaos into a foundation for the life you're trying to build.
