  • 117 | The Hidden Reasons Why You Procrastinate About Your Photos
    Nov 21 2025
    Do you ever look at your photos and think, “I really need to sort these… but not today”? Whether it’s thousands of images on your phone, boxes of inherited photos, or unfinished photo book dreams — procrastination can sneak up on all of us. In this episode, we explore the hidden reasons behind photo organising procrastination and why getting started often feels hard. From emotional weight and overwhelm to perfectionism and fear of doing it wrong, we look beneath the surface to understand what’s really going on. Together, we talk about how procrastination is often a protective response, not laziness — and why your brain might be gently saying, “Not right now,” even when your photos truly matter to you. What You’ll Hear in This Episode The psychology of overwhelm: why your photos feel “too big to start” When memories get heavy: how emotion, loss, and life transitions quietly fuel avoidance Perfectionism’s trap: the invisible pressure to get it “right” before you begin Pro-level procrastination moves: the everyday behaviours we all use to delay photo organising The creative side of avoidance: tea-making, pantry-organising, and other classic detours Your nervous system at work: why your brain sometimes says “not today” The mental health lens: how avoidance protects your emotional energy A gentle reflection: uncovering your hidden reason for putting it off Why It Matters Knowing why you procrastinate replaces frustration with compassion. Avoidance is often protection. With that awareness, your next steps become clearer and more manageable. Photo organising becomes an act of caring for your memories.

  • 116 | How to manage Screenshots on iPhone and Android
    Oct 31 2025
    Do you ever scroll through your photos and wonder why half of them are screenshots? From recipes and outfit ideas to reminders and funny memes — they pile up fast! In this episode, we share practical ways to manage screenshots and “reference photos” on both iPhone and Android, so your camera roll stays clear for the memories that truly matter. We dive into Golden Rule #4: Sort and Organise, focusing on one of the biggest culprits of digital clutter — screenshots and random note-to-self images. Whether it’s a book you want to read, a recipe to try, or a receipt to keep, we’ll show you how to decide what to keep, what to move elsewhere, and what to delete. What You’ll Hear in This Episode Why screenshots and reference photos don’t belong in your main photo library How to find, review, and tidy your screenshots on iPhone and Android Simple steps to delete or relocate images you want to keep Where to store screenshots Tips for hiding or securing albums you don’t need in daily view How to copy text from screenshots instead of saving the image Quick actions to stop screenshots from cluttering your library in the first place Why It Matters Not every photo deserves a permanent spot in your library. By managing screenshots and reference photos with a few simple habits, you’ll keep your collection easier to browse, lighter to manage, and more meaningful to revisit. It’s all about curating the memories that matter most.
