Lisa Hodgson - Minimalism & Home Organisation Coach

Lisa Hodgson - Minimalism & Home Organisation Coach Hi, I’m Lisa! But time and time again, I saw the same pattern—six months later, the clutter was back, and the systems hadn't been maintained. The real problem?

Declutter Coach | Creator of The Intentional Home Program | A step-by-step framework to clear physical and mental clutter, create systems that last, and get your family to step up and share the load, without conflict. Mum of two and ex-Finance Director, after decluttering my own life and creating the space to take my life in a different direction, I founded one of Sydney’s top decluttering busine

sses, helping hundreds of families bring order to their homes. Decluttering alone is like crash dieting. You can lose the weight (or the clutter), but if you don’t change your habits, mindset, and systems, everything creeps back in. Families didn’t just need a one-time fix—they needed to do the work themselves, in a way that was achievable (when life was already feeling overwhelming). They needed to align with their life, values, and daily routines. That’s why I created The Intentional Home Program—a step-by-step system that helps you:

- Create a vision for the home and life you want
- Shift your habits and mindset so clutter stops coming back
- Build maintainable systems that fit into everyday life
- Share the load—because running a home shouldn’t fall on one person

This isn’t about achieving a “perfect” home—it’s about designing a home that works for you and gives you more time, energy, and ease for what truly matters.

👉 Why should women have to coach men on the mental load?

A few months ago, I ran a free 5-Day Share The Load Challenge, and the response blew me away. Hundreds of mums signed up, desperate for change. Women reported back that they had never felt so seen and understood.

But what I realised through the process of running this challenge was this ⬇️

💫 The fix cannot be another job for her to carry alone.

That’s why I’m building something new.

⚖️ The Share The Load Program is a 30-day reset for families.

It’s not about women managing better.
It’s a simple framework that helps both partners:

1. Make visible the often invisible mental, emotional, and physical load of running a family.
2. Reset the old scripts (in both partners) that keep one person carrying more.
3. Let go of built-up resentment and learn to communicate better
4. Build the systems that support shared ownership (not just one person managing and the other 'doing').

And here’s why this really matters ⬇️

👉🏻 Couples where one partner carries most of the load report less intimacy and lower relationship satisfaction.
👉🏻 Women who feel the split is unfair are twice as likely to consider divorce.
👉🏻 The division of household and mental tasks is a top reason couples seek counselling.

💡 Worried your partner won’t join in? You’ll still walk away with practical tools
and scripts you can use straight away, to lighten your own load and bring them on the journey with you.

It’s about reducing resentment, protecting intimacy, and showing our kids a healthier model of partnership.

Let’s face it. Modern motherhood can be a bit of a Sh!tshow.

And that’s why I’m co-hosting this new podcast series with the hilariously funny Hannah Rodger, founder of The Mum Hive so that we can talk unfiltered about the beautiful chaos of motherhood, career, and home life.

Because let’s be honest there is far too much filtering going on right now - and that just makes mums who are doing it tough feel - well s**t!

We were drawn together by our shared sense of Northern English humour and sarcasm, mutual love of brightly coloured jumpers, and the belief that telling it like it is beats sugar-coating every time.

We talk candidly about the juggle: the mental load, the career curveballs, the mess (literal and metaphorical), and the moments that make you wonder if you’re smashing it or just barely hanging on.

Expect laughter, honesty, practical takeaways, and the occasional gold-star moment for doing the bare minimum.

It’s going to be a little bit sweary, because motherhood isn’t always pretty, but it’s never boring.

✨ Tired of the constant “tidy your room” battles? ✨

What if your child’s room wasn’t about *tidying*… but about building the skills they’ll carry for life? 💡

When we shift the focus away from the nagging and toward **teaching life skills**, kids learn responsibility, independence, decision-making, gratitude and you get to stop micromanaging. 🙌

And you can do this in an age appropriate way, that builds over time and based around their own needs and preferences.

Kid’s don’t learn these skills on their own, and some days you’re just too tired to figure out *how* to start.

That’s why I’ve created a **step-by-step playbook** — so you don’t have to do all the thinking yourself.

✨ Sharing the load & body-level resentment ✨

I recently ran a 5-Day Challenge digging into why it feels so damn hard to create true equity at home 🏡.

And here’s the kicker 👉 a lot of women realised they were actually (unintentionally) contributing to the stuck dynamic.

Not because they’re “naggy” or controlling (ugh, hate those labels)…
…but because we’ve ALL been programmed into this:
👩 She’s the household CEO
👨 He’s the helper

That’s the script. And it’s reinforced everywhere.

The thing is… this only changes when we drop the blame game and start really seeing how it got set up in the first place (and then build a way forward together).

💥 But here’s what really hit me: letting go of resentment is HARD.
Not just “have a bubble bath” hard.
I’m talking body-level resentment — the kind that makes standing down from arguments almost impossible and makes compassion feel out of reach.

And it reminded me: if we don’t set up our homes, systems, and conversations for equity from the very start (yep, ideally before kids)… resentment will move in and take the spare room.

👉 are you feeling resentment building up in your home? Let me know in the comments.

Sharing the load & body-level resentment

A few weeks ago I ran a 5-Day Challenge uncovering the truths about what the blocks are when it comes to truly creating equity at home 🏡.

A lot of the women in the challenge were surprised to hear that they themselves were contributing to this dynamic at home. It’s not a narrative that gets played in the mainstream media, which unhelpfully paints men as the lazy villains.

Because both men and women have been subjected to programming (that gets reinforced through behaviours) that positions women in the role of household CEO and men as the helpers.

This dynamic is only fixable when the blame stops and there is full transparency and a deeper understanding of how the situation arises PLUS a path forward to course correct.

What did surprise me though was how difficult it is for women to release the level of resentment they feel after carrying so much for so long.

It’s a body-level resentment, the kind that makes standing down from combative situations feel impossible, and makes building compassion and understanding for each other really hard.

It reinforced for me how important it is to set up your home, your systems and your conversations, from the early days of your relationship (ideally before kids even come along). Because if you don’t build equity in from the start, resentment will move in and take its place.

This is what we do inside The Intentional Home Program (https://www.lisahodgson.co/the-intentional-home)

I’m ready to start a different narrative on this topic, are you?

When was the last time you did something just for you? 👀
If your answer is “Umm… does finishing my coffee while it’s still hot count?” — it’s time for a wardrobe reset.

Not the kind where you buy a load of matching hangers and hope for the best.
The kind where you:
✨ Clear the chaos without the overwhelm
✨ Keep only what works for your lifestyle right now
✨ Create a system that makes getting dressed actually enjoyable

You don’t need more willpower or a fairy godmother. You just need a strategy.
And I’ve got one for you.

It’s the exact step-by-step I’ve used to organise 500+ women’s wardrobes — now bundled into The Ultimate Wardrobe Organisation Guide so you can do it too, in your own time, without the stress.

Waiting for their partner to “just get it.”

💥 Are you fed up of being the one keeping your whole house running?

There’s a quiet hope in so many homes... That one day your partner will see how much you’re doing and finally step up. But if you’ve been silently (or not-so-silently) waiting for that moment…when dealing with the mental to-do-lists, the organising, the planning, the dealing with the household clutter,
and nothing’s changed yet?

it probably won’t.

Not because they don’t care. But because most people don’t change… until something around them does.

That’s why I created the 👉 Share the Load Challenge — a free 5-day reset to help you stop carrying it all alone and finally start making real, lasting shifts at home.

✨ No more blaming.
✨ No more nagging.
✨ Just clear tools, powerful insights, and conversations that actually change things.

🗓 Over 5 days you’ll get:

✅ 1 short email/video a day
✅ 1 simple action step
✅ 1 powerful shift in how the mental, emotional, and invisible load gets shared

We start 28 July. Come join us.

It’s free. It’s doable. It’s the start of something different.

💭 This isn’t just about chores. It’s about how heavy it feels to be the one holding it all together.
If that’s been wearing you down, let’s change that. Together.
