    My "word" is actually a statement from the Bible: "Let your yes be yes, and your no be no." In the past I said yes to way too many things that I didn't want to do and it overwhelmed and stressed me. Now, I don't have to say yes unless it's something that will genuinely bring value to me. I'm too old to live out other people's expectations for me.

      I agree. When Cas was speaking about her disappointment of her 2025, the question that popped into my head is, "when are we allowed to just enjoy what we accomplish?" I love a growth mindset but why is there always pressure to create and chase the next dream? The life I currently live is beyond what I could have dreamed and yet there so much pressure to do more :( I do agree that negative self talk needs to change so Cas, thank you so much for the pep talk to aggressively talk to myself as whatever I want

    First time listener. Food for thought: sometimes maintaining a routine or sustaining and not losing traction on positive routines is just as successful as increasing skill. It’s a marathon, not a race. Enjoy the ride with gratitude and while keeping your eyes peeled for things that can be improved, occasionally consider the yard stick for success that you are measuring with.

    I have been feeling trapped in life. I have an autistic 3 year old and a 3 month old and I am always telling myself "I never get time for myself" "someone is always touching me" "I can't spend time doing things to better my life because I don't have time without kids". Your "you have the life you are willing to put up with" was a lightbulb. Even if I do it at a snails pace at least I am moving.

    I've wanted joy back in my life for a really long time. every time I think of how to be joyful again I break down crying.
    I think just the act of letting myself realize how much grief, loss, depression has swallowed my true self up the last 8 years, is an act of facing what I've been through and what is cost me, and how lost I have become that I can barely imagine joy anymore.
    But I'm going to. This is my word for the year.

    Those negative self-talk moments we're not just in your head. My heart would hurt when those negative self-talk comments would creep out into your videos. After a few weeks of binge-watching your videos, it dawned on me that I, too, had those negative self-talk comments and decided to be more aware of them so that I could cancel them out right away. I am so happy that you, too, have come to realize it and fight against it.

    I got up an hour early this morning, so I could spend some time (not a lot) cleaning and decluttering. It was exhausting and I had to lie down and rest several times. But I still managed to: sweep the bathroom floor, hang up a load of clean clothes, prepare another load of clothes to wash, and do some tidying and decluttering on my desk. It felt soooo good! My sentence for this year is going to be (IS) "I LOVE decluttering and cleaning.". What an attitude shift! 🎉🎉🎉🎉. Thanks, Cas!

    I have only recently (3 days ago) found your channel and have been binge-watching ever since. You have given me the inspiration and motivation to finally get my house and my life in order. You have given me the ‘kick in the pants’ that I have needed for way too long, and I cannot thank you enough Cas. Your bubbly personality and sense of humour are infectious. I suffer from chronic illness and mobility impairment, so I know it’s going to be more of a struggle and take a bit longer for me to get things done, but I know deep down that I have the POWER within me to achieve my goal. My word for this year is POWER. With love and gratitude to you from England ❤

    I don’t have a word for myself but the other day I heard the quote,
    “Stop focusing on making progress and focus on what’s doable.”
    For some reason, this has REALLY helped me! All of a sudden my livingroom and kitchen are cleaned and decluttered, seemingly without effort.
    Our mental and emotional health really affects our physical health. Be gentle with yourself Cass. It’s okay that you didn’t have the capacity while you were grieving and caring for your daughter and everyone else, to have the energy for yourself too.
    You were giving 100% even when your capacity was very small. When you have a teaspoon of energy left and you’ve used it, even if just to eat a snack, take a nap or wipe the counter, you’ve given 100% of yourself.
    Have a wonderful day! ❤️❤️

Only I wouldn't wear it because I wanted to wait until my house was perfect so I'd feel like a queen. We'll, I'm not finished in the house, there's a couple of areas that I need to finish decluttering and making beautiful, but I decided that life was hard enough, and I deserved to feel that luxury next to my skin, whether the house is perfect or not. It felt amazing!! And in turn, I'm starting to feel so much better about the mundane. Nothing can ever be manifested until you feel like you already have it.

    My word this year is SIMPLIFY. Moving into a Retirement Village, joining my Church committee, and Village Residents Committee . Also including medical appointments, I felt at the end of 2024 I needed to take control and have some me time. So far it's working and having a new rescue pup is giving me a new focus!
    Keep up the good work love, you inspire me all the time! 🐾🤓💝👍💖

    My word for 2025 is DANCE. Both literally (I've been dancing 15 minutes each day, and will be getting certified to teach zumba this year!) but also figuratively. Ya know, if I get the chance to sit it out or dance... Dance! Very similar to your Joy word.

    Thank you so much for your honesty! Thank you for this podcast. It was a kick in the pants that I needed too! My vision board has two mantras on it - "Great things come from consistent progress" and "I allow, I accept, and I deserve". My word of the year is SIMPLICITY. It helps me not to overthink, and look at everything I have and everything I do in a different way. Instead of a daily cleaning routine that makes me crazy busy or feels overwhelming, I find the simplest, bare minimum way to do it and then add on if I feel motivated. I feel much more in control of my life and have taken out a lot of things that were too much to maintain. This includes family members and friendships as well.
    Again, thank you!! You make such a difference in people's lives! I wish you many moments of joy in 2025!

    Confession time. I’ve been listening to your Audiobook, and UA-cam videos for quite awhile. I have decluttering down. It’s actually a little bit addictive. I like to start my day by unloading the dishwasher while the coffee brews, and finding something to deep clean or tidy. Then I clean the cat boxes. I listen to podcasts, books or videos while I do this. What I’m REALLY doing is avoiding exercise. You busted me. You spoke to me. I’m going to change the way I talk to myself and become more aware of how I’m spending my time. Because I AM a person who enjoys her daily exercise!

    Growing up, my parents were much older than most. They loved me, but my mom always criticized when she praised. Once when I asked her why she did this, she told me that she thought I would be egotistical if she didn’t criticize when she praised. Sadly, it took me many years to dig myself out from this mindset.

    Thank you!! I needed to hear this today. Cas, you are truly an amazing angel! I have always thought of myself as a clean freak, organized type of person that could multitask. As I've gotten older and life has hit harder I've slowed down and gotten lazy. I've basically surrendered and given myself excuses to not achieve. Hearing this today has been a kick in the pants and I'm going to make the changes I need happen! I love your videos and I have been decluttering for years now with your help and motivation. It all started with a kitchen junk drawer a few years ago lol! I want my life back and no one can give that to me except for me! Thank you for the love, time, help, and motivation you give all of us! You truly make a difference in so many lives and that is an incredible accomplishment!❤

    "Joy" was the feeling encouraged by a Spiritual podcast I stumbled upon around 3am Sunday unable to sleep to sleep.
    Here you are today choosing your word for encouragement being _ "joy" ..... He even mentioned The Lord wishes, and is Joyous in us when we succeed, and are Happy. " Joy to the World 🌎 ...🌟
    I feel we will share this word, for our assertive Power..... We deserve it cause the Lord wishes it for us....❤ JOY ,Power, Pride to you Cass and all of us . Thank You

    Cass, don't fret about protein. As a 16 year vegan, I know that most people consume way too much protein. And, there is protein in everything. Everything. Even that strawberry you are eating. So if you are not a huge consumer of animal products, it's probably a benefit to your health. The only people who are protein deficient are not consuming enough calories, basically starving. No one in the USA is protein deficient unless they are ill or starving themselves.

      You might be surprised.
      The beans and rice combination is a bit low on the amino acids methionine and threonine. You can get methionine in capsules to take with it.
      Your body will likely combine all amino acids eaten in the same day, so not all of them need to be eaten together.
      Sources of Threonine.
      Poultry and Meat (chicken, beef, sausage)
      Spinach
      Nuts (almonds, peanuts, walnuts)
      TVP (textured vegetable protein)
      Seed (sesame, pumpkin)
      Eggs
      Fish & seafood (shrimp, salmon)
      Sources of Methionine:
      Eggs
      Fish
      Turkey
      Beef
      Cheese
      Milk
      Quinoa
      Nuts

    I am exactly the same way about my health!! I have gained 40 lbs over the past 10 years and have been diagnosed 2 years ago with type 2 diabetes and I still don't take it seriously and constantly negatively self talk to myself. I self sabotage and make plenty of excuses to not work out and watch my diet closer. I have gotten other things in my life well balanced , my home thanks to you, but when it comes to taking care of me I neglect myself. I'm a mother, wife, and daughter and take care of everyone else before me. Please keep telling us how you are taking steps to a healthier you because I could really use the help!!!

      Affirmations have a way of doing that if our mind knows we’re lying 😀 The trick is to find the positive spin. E.g., “I deserve orderly files,” “I am grateful for my growing list of clients and the opportunity to serve them,” “I love drinking my coffee and listening to my favorite songs while I do paperwork,” etc.

    There is a saying, Life happens while we are making other plans. Don't look back on past so called failures. You can't change the past. I like Dana White's podcast on " Maximilism" . Also looking forward to her new book - Jesus Doesn't care About your Messy House. Keep looking forward and remember that you did this many times before and you can do it again. Praying for you.

  • @PassionCommunity74839

    I learned something in this video that I think it's good that i did learn about it:
    Negative thoughts just don't keep you going, they just destroy who you really are and makes you confused about things. We should always say positive thoughts about ourselves, just doing that is loving ourselves. We must say "I am capable of many things" everyday. Even better, we must always say "I am strong, unstoppable and I can do it" everyday.
    I have a boyfriend who always says negative things about himself, and I always make him think positivitly about himself when he hurts himself psychologicly. Even better, I always make someone think good of themselves, even they did a bad mistake, because we always do mistakes in life. What's important about them is how you deal with it: Ignore it or fix it?
    Also, we can't change of who we are, but we can do better everyday. We can work on ourselves to be better, but to not change. What I always say to people is "Change is adding something new in your life and will make you look in different perspectives about things". Like you say, changing the way we think about ourselves makes a great step to be better and grow.
    Honestly, my words in 2025 are about changing: Learn and Grow. I am learning new things this year and I am growing myself more this year so I can love myself more for the future ( I already love myself, but you know, adding more spices to the mix). I am telling myself this year that I can do everything I want in life, even if it takes 1 day, weeks or months to do it.
    And also, the pound of our body shouldn't matter in a relationship, but the pound of our heart: Is it a big heart or a small heart? You must not be shamed of how your body looks like, because of what's really important in life is who you are inside and not who you are outside. The size of the heart should really matters.
    Finally, your podcast motivated me to do a bit of decluttering in my room: My shelve was full of trash, and I am happy that it looks less full right now. Thanks for the motivation you give to people, this really helps getting better and learn to love ourselves better.
    And yeah, you are right, I deserve to be happy and have a clean home. I deserve to wake up and have a clean space and a clean mindset. Thanks for the words, you really add a difference to the community, thank you 💞💗💝
