Dorota Kuldo is a decluttering mentor who supports women to gently untangle clutter, overwhelm, and deeply rooted “good girl conditioning” — without shame or pressure. After decluttering over 70% of her own belongings in six months while juggling two full-time jobs, Dorota developed a practical, compassionate approach to creating clutter-free systems that truly last.

Her work is especially impactful for women healing after trauma, including survivors of family and domestic violence. By combining mindset shifts, nervous system regulation, and brain-friendly strategies, Dorota helps women reclaim their homes as places of safety, stability, and self-trust. She believes decluttering isn’t about having less — it’s about creating an environment that supports healing, agency, and peace. Dorota’s trauma-informed approach makes decluttering feel empowering, sustainable, and aligned with each woman’s healing journey.

What if reclaiming your home could help you reclaim yourself?

For many survivors of family and domestic violence, home doesn’t automatically feel safe — and clutter can quietly reinforce that unease. In this powerful episode, Rose welcomes decluttering mentor Dorota Kuldo to explore how decluttering can become a trauma-informed pathway to healing, agency, and emotional safety.

Dorota explains why clutter is often linked to trauma, guilt, and nervous system survival responses rather than laziness or failure. She challenges traditional decluttering advice that prioritises perfection and control, and instead offers a gentle, compassionate framework designed to support healing after abuse.

Through nervous system regulation, mindset shifts, and brain-friendly strategies, Dorota shows how small, intentional steps can restore a sense of control without overwhelm. This approach allows women to create homes that feel grounding, supportive, and aligned with their healing journey.

This episode is an invitation to release shame, honour survival, and re-imagine your space as a place of peace, freedom, and self-trust. Whether you’re just beginning or feeling stuck, this conversation offers a kinder way forward — one that respects where you’ve been and supports where you’re going.
