Good Enough-ish: Recent Episodes
Amanda Jefferson & Brooke Forry
Introducing Good Enough-ish, a new podcast from two organization-loving friends sharing tips, strategies, and real-life experiences (and fails!) of trying to be good enough-ish.
Co-hosts Amanda Jefferson & Brooke Forry love systems and organizing... but we are NOT perfect. (#notevenclose) We are busy, tired, flawed people, attempting to keep it all together with some joy and fun in the mix.
Amanda is the owner of Indigo Organizing and one of the world’s first KonMari consultants. She helps people have less stuff, less stress, more space AND more time for what MATTERS.
Brooke is a graphic designer, entrepreneur, and co-founder of the Balance Bound Planner, a line of US-made products that help busy people get organized and prioritize self-care.
We have LOTS to discuss, rant about, and laugh about, amidst also sharing some hopefully helpful tips for our listeners.
The first episode of Good Enough-ish launches on Thursday, April 14, 2022, and you can listen wherever you get your podcasts. We'll have a new episode every Thursday.

Today’s episode is a rerun of one of our greatest hits!
Valentine’s Day is coming… a holiday that requires a good enough-ish approach in many areas (and, perhaps, a little more effort in others — but only if you wanna). Speaking of effort: Amanda also teaches us about having an Every Damn Day list, a tip she picked up from Sarah Von Bargen, and how it can be an easier concept to grasp than adopting rituals or seemingly time-consuming practices. Plus, you know we love anything that involves a checklist.
Brooke then shares the details of her new hearty, delicious, protein-filled breakfast obsession, and Amanda reminds us of a favor we should all be doing for our future selves as tax season (blerg) approaches.

Today’s episode is a rerun of one of our greatest hits while we take a little holiday week off. (Pssst ... We'll be back next week with NEW shows!)
Spooky season is over and Thanksgiving is mere weeks away! After some exciting (albeit vague) teasers for some Good Enough-ish things to come, Amanda and Brooke dig into their approach to Thanksgiving.

Amanda also shares a Danish-inspired approach to coziness that she’s trying to adopt more often at home, and Brooke gives the scoop on how she keeps track of great gift ideas year-round so she’s not stressing about ideas come Christmastime (or anytime).

You’ve more than likely heard the chatter about Marie Kondo, the creator of the KonMari method of organizing, supposedly “giving up”… but as we all know, there’s always more to a story than a clickbait-y headline leads us to believe.

Valentine’s Day is coming… a holiday that requires a good enough-ish approach in many areas (and, perhaps, a little more effort in others — but only if you wanna). Speaking of effort: Amanda also teaches us about having an Every Damn Day list, a tip she picked up from Sarah Von Bargen, and how it can be an easier concept to grasp than adopting rituals or seemingly time-consuming practices. Plus, you know we love anything that involves a checklist.
Brooke then shares the details of her new hearty, delicious, protein-filled breakfast obsession, and Amanda reminds us of a favor we should all be doing for our future selves as tax season (blerg) approaches.

You’ve more than likely heard the chatter about Marie Kondo, the creator of the KonMari method of organizing, supposedly “giving up”… but as we all know, there’s always more to a story than a clickbait-y headline leads us to believe.

Amanda then shares a joy-sparking budgeting tool that’s giving her a better view of household spending, and Brooke passes on another handy tip courtesy of Fran that is great to remember when you need to de-fog, stat.

Amanda survived the TEDx experience and lived to tell the tale! After some karaoke- and nailpolish-related banter, she and Brooke break down how Amanda found the right experts to help her achieve the TEDx goal, and how we can all relate to putting ourselves out there in an incredibly vulnerable (albeit exciting) position.
BUT… as with any big undertaking, it wasn’t all rainbows and butterflies. Amanda gets honest about some of the unexpected lessons that came from the experience. (*Special note: Amanda discusses some feedback that she received prior to her talk. Amanda wants to be crystal clear that the feedback she received did NOT come from, nor was it endorsed by, a member of the TEDxRutgersCamden team. The entire TEDxRutgersCamden team was made up of extremely talented and gracious young students, and they had no part in this.)
Amanda’s current joy sparker this week comes in the form of a Retail Angel named Khay (who she incorrectly called Shay in the episode - doh!) who saved her in the 11th hour of her TEDx experience, and Brooke shares a favor to her future self that is relatable to anyone with a snoring housemate.

Amanda told Brooke a little fib about the state of her house on recording day. This leads to some real-talk about house clutter that makes them itch, being “overcome” by clutter, outer chaos leading to inner chaos, holding onto sentimental items (which, it turns out, don’t always include good sentiments), and when/how they started to value the benefits of organization and decluttering. Then, they sing. (It’s weird, but just go with it.) Brooke also raves about a modern invention that was actually her million dollar idea 9.5 years ago, and Amanda reveals the phrase that now sets off all the red flags in her head.
