  • 32. How to Avoid Burnout While Planning Your Home Remodel - 5 Practical Tools to Lighten the Load

  • 31. My Indecision Is Costing Me Money — Stop Decision Fatigue
    Feb 16 2026

    If you’re feeling exhausted just thinking about remodeling, this episode is for you.

    In this episode, I’m talking about the mental load of remodeling — the invisible weight homeowners carry long before construction ever starts. It’s not the demo or the dust that wears you down first. It’s the constant thinking, deciding, second-guessing, and carrying everything in your head.

    Here’s what I break down:

    • The decisions homeowners carry
    • Why “just thinking about the remodel” is so mentally draining
    • How poor or missing documentation increases overwhelm
    • Where homeowners tend to over-function and take on too much responsibility

    I also share practical tools you can use right now to prevent burnout before your project even begins:

    • How to get decisions out of your head and onto paper
    • Why documentation reduces decision fatigue and mistakes
    • How to stop revisiting the same choices over and over
    • Where you can hand things off without losing control

    If you’re early in the planning phase and already feeling tired, nothing is wrong with you — your remodel just isn’t organized yet.

    And if you want help setting this up the right way, I’m launching the Pocket Designer Subscription in March. One of the biggest perks is access to all of my documentation templates so you can get your project organized, reduce overwhelm, and protect your energy before construction starts.

    This episode will help you understand why remodels are so exhausting — and how to avoid burnout

  • 30. Why Most Homeowners Overpay Contractors — And How to Avoid It
    Feb 9 2026

    If you’ve ever thought about hiring contractors for your remodel and immediately felt overwhelmed, you are not alone. I get it — the process can feel confusing, stressful, and honestly a little intimidating. But here’s the truth: most of that overwhelm disappears when you do one critical thing before you even call a contractor.

    In this episode, I’m walking you through how preparation changes the entire contractor conversation. I’ll show you what contractors really need from homeowners, how to spot red flags during interviews, and why having clarity upfront doesn’t just save you stress — it protects your budget.

    Here’s what you’ll learn:

    • Why preparation changes contractor conversations – How thinking ahead sets the tone for a productive relationship and helps contractors give you accurate pricing.
    • What contractors need from homeowners – The key information and decisions to have ready so your project runs smoothly.
    • Red flags during interviews – How to spot potential issues early so you don’t get stuck with costly mistakes or surprises.
    • How clarity impacts pricing – Why being organized and decisive before you hire ensures your estimates are accurate and prevents budget blowouts.

    I’m also sharing a peek at the Pocket Designer Subscription, launching in March! One of the amazing perks is direct access to all my Documentation Templates — the exact tools I use to organize remodels and communicate clearly with contractors. If you want to feel confident, prepared, and in control of your project from the very beginning, this is for you.
