Are distractions silently running your life? Maybe you're too busy to notice they are!

In Part 2 of the four-part Distraction Detox workshop series, Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast host, Jamie Belz, takes you beyond awareness into action—showing how your physical space and digital environment directly shape your focus, stress, energy, and - most importantly - your health.

Last week we tracked our biggest “time leaks.” This week, Jamie shares her own discoveries—how constant family interruptions, endless email and Slack checks, and online shopping spirals were draining her focus and fueling stress. With humor and honesty, she unpacks how clutter—whether in your kitchen, car, or inbox—isn’t just about aesthetics or productivity. Research shows disorganized environments trigger higher cortisol, unstable blood sugar, poor sleep, digestive issues, slower healing, and overall - poorer health outcomes.

You’ll learn:

• Why environment is the “invisible hand” that shapes your daily habits (James Clear, Atomic Habits).
• How over-analysis paralysis keeps us stuck—and how Jamie used her “backpack boundary” strategy as an effective tool to reclaim time and sanity.
• The surprising ways visual clutter, digital chaos, and constant notifications keep your brain in survival mode - driving cortisol with each micro-stressor thing and ping.
• How your surroundings influence the Foundations of Health—digestion, blood sugar regulation, nutrient-dense diet, sleep, stress, and movement.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, scattered, or stressed, this episode will help you take the first step in the direction of unstuck, un-scattered, and de-stressed—equipping you with a simple but powerful framework to start turning your environment into an ally instead of an enemy.

And yes, there’s a brand-new Distraction Detox challenge waiting for you at the end of this episode—one that will help you reclaim calm, restore focus, and set the stage for deeper transformation in the weeks ahead.
