  • Bend Time, Reclaim Joy: From Burnout to Fulfillment at Home & Work
    Dec 8 2025
    What if you could bend time — not to do more, but to experience more joy, energy, and fulfillment? In this powerful episode of Got Clutter? Get Organized!, I’m joined by Michelle Niemeyer, a former attorney who turned her own burnout into a blueprint for transformation. After more than 20 years in law, a divorce, and an autoimmune diagnosis, Michelle realized something had to change.

What emerged was The Art of Bending Time — a simple, holistic system that helps clients reclaim up to 10+ hours of productive time each week while restoring peace and purpose to their lives. We discuss how your health, routines, and even your home environment play a role in burnout and recovery — and how reconnecting with your joy can change everything. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: How burnout led Michelle to develop The Art of Bending Time The connection between joy, health, productivity, and organization Why aligning your routines, space, and schedule can unlock clarity Real-life results from people who reclaimed time and fulfillment How to enter 2026 with intention — not exhaustion Connect with Michelle Niemeyer: Text: 3377 Clarity Website: https://www.michelleniemeyer.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theartofbendingtime LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-niemeyer-3997936/ 🎁 Special Offer: Book a virtual organizing session at JanetMTaylor.com, and for a limited time, receive a second session FREE!
