You're not lazy. You're just overwhelmed.

You’ve tried to get organized.

You’ve made lists, saved all the posts full of tips, bought the bins, rearranged the closet, maybe even started a few times with the best of intentions.

But between the mental clutter, daily distractions, and the pressure to do it all (and do it right)… it’s easier to avoid the project altogether.

Overthinking turns into avoidance. You put it off because it feels like too much.  And the more time passes, the heavier it gets.

This course was created for that exact moment—the one where you want to make a change but have no idea where or how to begin.
Deep down, you know you’re ready for something to shift. You're ready for change.

You’ve been carrying a mental list of unfinished projects, cluttered spaces, and good intentions for years... but every time you think about starting, it feels too overwhelming to even begin.

That’s where Unstuck comes in.

This unique course combines psychology, self-coaching tools, and practical strategies to help you make time for what matters, overcome your roadblocks, and finally take meaningful action.

No unrealistic plans. No pressure to do it all. Just a mindset reset—so you can clear the clutter from the inside out.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What is a digital course, and how does it work?

No tech experience required! Once you enroll, you'll get instant access to your private course dashboard. Simply log in to watch the video lessons, download the worksheets, and move through the content at your own pace. No one else can see your progress, and you can revisit any part of the course whenever you need to.

And don’t worry—there are no pop quizzes, no grades, and definitely no final exams... just clarity, encouragement, and the freedom to learn without deadlines or pressure.

Online courses are like having a mindset coach or professional organizer in your pocket, but at a fraction of the cost. No appointments, no ongoing session fees. Just real guidance, right when you need it.

How is the Unstuck: The Mindset Reset™ course structured?

This course is divided into three core units, each made up of thoughtfully paced video lessons and downloadable worksheets to help you apply what you’re learning in real life.

The lessons are visual and voice-guided—using simple animations, on-screen text, and visual storytelling (not face-to-camera recordings). They’re designed to feel like someone is walking you through each idea step by step, making it easy to stay focused and absorb the content.

You'll also get a bonus workshop to help you identify your procrastination style and move past the patterns that have been holding you back.

Everything is self-paced, so you can move through it on your own schedule and revisit it at anytime.

Is this course about how to get organized?

Not exactly. Unstuck™ is about what needs to happen BEFORE you dive into organizing. It helps you reset your mindset, make time for what matters, and move past the mental clutter that keeps you stuck. It’s the missing first step most people skip.

Is Unstuck™ right for me?

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by endless to-do lists, unfinished projects, or the weight of "where do I even start?"—this course was made for you. It’s perfect for anyone craving clarity and simplicity, no matter your season of life, schedule, or background.

How long will it take to complete this course?

The video lessons total just under 4 hours of content—but with the intro materials, downloadable worksheets, and bonus workshop, most students spend around 5 to 7 hours moving through the full experience.

That said, this is a self-paced course with lifetime access, so there’s no rush. You can take it all in at once, spread it out over a few days or weeks, or come back to it whenever you need a reset.

Can I access the course on my phone or tablet?

You sure can. The course is fully accessible on desktop, laptop, tablet, and mobile devices—so you can learn from home or on the go.

For the best viewing experience, a larger screen (like a tablet or computer) is recommended, but it’s definitely not required. The platform is flexible, so you can choose whatever works best for you.

Does Simplicity University have other courses?

Yes! More courses are definitely in the works, including one focused specifically on organizing strategies and step-by-step methods.

Unstuck: The Mindset Reset™ is the first course in a growing series designed to help you simplify your life from the inside out. It’s like a prerequisite for making future progress stick—the foundational work so that your future efforts don’t feel so overwhelming, scattered, or short-lived.

Can I give this course as a gift?

Absolutely! Unstuck™ makes a meaningful and empowering gift for any friend or family member who’s feeling overwhelmed, stuck in place, or craving a fresh start.
