The Closet Clean Out Guide: Declutter Your Life and Get Your Confidence Back
6/22/202629 min
Have you ever stood in front of a full closet, said “I have nothing to wear,” and reached for the same safe outfit one more time? You are not alone, and it is not really about the clothes.
Tamsen’s viral closet clean out started as a simple declutter and spiraled into one of the most transformative things she has done in midlife, pulling in everything she had been avoiding about who she is now and the body she is in today.
In this deeply personal solo episode, Tamsen shares why she really did it and what she learned once she stopped negotiating with herself in front of the mirror.
You’ll learn:
- How to make a fast yes-or-no call on every piece without talking yourself back into it
- Why you get stuck doing this alone, and exactly who to bring into the room with you
- How to spot the clothes you are keeping out of grief instead of love
- Why holding onto clothes in multiple sizes quietly works against you every morning
- How to tell the difference between what is weighing you down and what is holding you up
This is the episode that will make you finally open the door you have been avoiding. The woman on the other side of that closet is already there, waiting for you to make room for her.

If you follow me anywhere on social, you have probably been watching me share little bits and pieces of my closet journey, and I cannot say how many of you have reached out about all of it. I've gotten DMs, I've gotten emails, texts from friends I haven't heard from in years asking me about it, every single one of you wanting to know more. So this episode is for you.

This show is sponsored by Midi Health. Menopause doesn't happen overnight. It happens over years of nights. Hormones start shifting long before your period ends, and most doctors aren't trained to spot it. That's why Midi Health exists, and it's why I tell every woman I know about them. Midi is the only virtual care clinic built specifically for women navigating midlife hormonal changes from perimenopause through menopause. And yes, visits are covered by insurance.
