More Moss to the People

My spiritual journey with alcohol.

Season 2, Ep. 22

THE THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS IN THIS EPISODE ARE SOLELY MY OWN. If you feel you have addiction issues, please go seek help. You deserve it. Xx.


Alcohol has slowly been creeping more and more into my day-to-day and I am officially over it. 


Gross little drug that when used properly is lovely. 


When used in excess, causes hurt, shame, sickness, broken families, embarrassment and guilt. And that’s on a good day!


Listen, I am ALL IN for celebrating life but what has happened slowly but surely in my life is that every day drinking has become completely and totally normalized…. now THAT is no bueno for me because I don’t like the way I FEEL.


Perhaps balance is possible? Maybe it isn’t. Only way to know is to look at it and talk about it. Without shame. Maybe you can relate?

IN THIS EPISODE I TALK ABOUT:

  1. Åsa, why are you obsessing about this topic? 
  2. I lived in the US from the age of 5 to 43. Early in my teens I started drinking alcohol. 
  3. Age 13 I quit drinking alcohol only to take it back up again at 30 
  4. Didn't drink but smoked cigarettes to beat the band (drug of choice) throughout high school and college.
  5. Uptight, controlled, controlling, judgmental all those years. 
  6. At 30 I started slowly introducing alcohol back into my body and life. 
  7. Drinking in the US was an ant issue because “everyone did it”.
  8. I thought this was normal. Until I was shown something else. 
  9. Sweden, zero tolerance for drinking and driving. Which I love. 
  10. The amount of mental energy that alcohol now takes in my life is exhausting.
  11.  Wake up in the middle of the night, brain off and running.
  12. When I went to my 50 year health control check up, how she reacted.
  13. Antidepressants + anti inflammatory medicines and alcohol. How does that work? 
  14.  What do I do if I don’t drink? Had to look back to when I quit smoking. How did I do that? Had to find a mentor.
  15. “I was a derelict of a child”. Side note: I do NOT blame my parents.
  16.  One of my best friends who considers herself an alcoholic never wakes up in a fog, never wakes up with guilty feelings. I want to feel like that!! She’s my hero! 
  17. Asking myself … how do I FEEL? Blindly drinking on a Tuesday night. No consciousness around it, just doing it out of habit. 
  18. “Help me see, God, what I can not see”. Went to the skin doctor to get some help with the eczema around my eyes. TRUE STORY! 
  19. No alcohol for 9 weeks. So, yeah, will I stop breathing if I take a glass of wine? Seriously?!
  20. Time to wake up, Åsa. Look at YOURSELF and your daily habits and determine for yourself… do they make you feel good? 
  21. Look for the BALANCE in life.

    HOST: Åsa NilssonTITLE OF EPISODE: “I don’t want to live an unconscious life”. SUMMARY OF EPISODE: This episode of the ‘More Moss to the People’ podcast reflects on personal growth, self-discovery, and meaningful living. Sharing my shift from trying to please others to reconnecting with my own voice, inspired by the 2 of Swords Tarot card's themes of indecision and introspection. Exploring the challenges of ‘doing’ less but wanting more, grappling with unanswered questions, and finding deep gratitude in the work we do.Key reflections include the importance of minimizing physical and emotional clutter, facing fears of abandonment, and embracing life's simplicity. I touch back on my experience of ‘having’ the tough conversations, evolving hopes and purposes, and the universal desire to be seen, valued, and heard. The continual reminder that progress over perfection is what I am working towards and the aspiration to living consciously versus staying asleep is of utmost importance to me.Enjoy. ÅsaIN THIS EPISODE I DISCUSS:-Thank you for the messages from people I didn’t even know listened to the ‘More Moss’ podcast.-Gotten away from sharing my heart and thinking more about what others might want to hear about. -Why do I keep looking outside of myself? -What does the world need to hear from me today? 2 of Swords Tarot Card-Doing less and wanting more? Feeling stuck? Asking questions constantly but never allowing for the answer to be revealed.-“If you’ve lived an interesting life your a winner.” - Autistic Mystic-42 days of work in the USA, what did we learn? -No more death cleaning in old attics, we are not equipped to do this work. Why?-“What are you most afraid of finding/feeling?”-  new question to integrate into our onboarding.-Discovering gratitude in the work. -Too many *things* around us matter. They are made of matter. They do matter. -Meaning behind “Leave no mess behind”. What do YOU think about that premise? -What will matter to me at the end of my life? Having more cashmere sweaters and boots? Maybe. 🙂-Having tough conversations, getting out of a chaotic mess.-What if the hope I had has changed? My purpose? -Follow up to an old conversation I needed to have. I had it. -Will I choose to Self Abandon over the potential of ‘being’ abandoned?-Am I enough for you? More importantly, am I enough for myself!-Let life be easy. Progress not perfection. -“I don’t want to live an unconscious life”. -We all want to be seen, valued, and heard.

  • 21. "What did I come here looking to find?"

    20:01||Season 3, Ep. 21
    HOST: Åsa NilssonTITLE OF EPISODE: ‘What did I come here looking to find’? SUMMARY OF EPISODE: 🎉 Anniversary Episode!Two years ago, Komeil and I began this podcasting journey, unsure of where it would take us. I certainly didn’t expect to discover Swedish Death Cleaning or my passion for helping people open up about both life and death. I never imagined meeting so many incredible guests who would share their hearts, passions, sadness, and truths with us.I feel incredibly lucky, blessed, and humbled by this experience. Looking to the future feels both exciting and liberating—though a bit unnerving, too.Will I continue this podcast monthly? Maybe even weekly? Or perhaps not at all? I’m not sure yet. It all depends on how it fits into my work and life. If it becomes a stressor, it wouldn’t be sustainable, and that’s not the direction I want to take.Now, I’d love your help. Please share what you gain from this movement and what you take away from listening to these podcasts.Your voice matters. Xx,ÅsaIN THIS EPISODE I DISCUSS:Greetings from Houston, Texas.KLM Airlines, poor communication, still no baggage after nearly a week. What’s a girl to do? 2 year anniversary of the ‘More Moss to the People’ podcast on Nov 11th!! Am I still happy with this project I started? Creating a podcast takes a good bit of effort. Am I still in love with it? I’m paying to talk to you. Why? What’s it all for? Thanking all guests from this past season, by name. If my guests weren’t my friend before I had them on, they sure are afterwards.Discoveries this past year…I have the administrative piece down, looking at changing things up a little, be more playful, expansive, not restrictive.Swedish Death Cleaning is my jam. I love it.  I really have no idea what I’m doing. What’s going to happen? Who knows!?Retired Thomas out of his job where his health was taking a toll. That was huge and a big step. Bold and FUN! Started collaborating with more partners. Don’t need to do all of this myself. Repurposing content. Highlighting certain previous episodes again, why not?How do I want to market the ‘More Moss to the People’ brand? The podcast was always the umbrella and my paid work was underneath that. Now I want Swedish Death Cleaning and Decluttering to be the umbrella and the podcast to be underneath.Downloads, where are my listeners located. Getting feedback, THANK YOU. Learning more about myself. This is not meant to be a stressor. Is it? Looking at this and being honest with myself and you. What did I come here looking to find?Looking for feedback. What do YOU get out of these episodes? This movement? Do share, it can make a difference. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:-Komeil Asli-You can find all of my past episodes on, www.moremosstothepeople.com-Robin Rastini, @robin.rastini -Marcus Gunnarsson, drawing of Emma Watson, https://www.instagram.com/marcuscgunnarsson/Thank you for listening in and for supporting us these past 2 years.
  • 20. "Conflict delayed is conflict multiplied"

    26:39||Season 3, Ep. 20
    HOST: Åsa NilssonTITLE OF EPISODE: “Conflict delayed is conflict multiplied.”SUMMARY OF EPISODE: Thank you for the beautiful feedback on my moms legacy episodes. She is something else, right? This month's episode finds me contemplating my truth and will I share it? Will I determine that my place in the “group” is more important than my potential of being cast out of it? Will I self abandon at the expense of sharing what’s on my heart and causing discomfort for someone else (and myself)? Perhaps you can identify with this quandary as well.With you on the path,ÅsaIN THIS EPISODE I DISCUSS:Thank you for the beautiful feedback from my moms legacy episodes. A lot of healing shared. The impact we have on others is often unrecognized. We’ll be in Houston, Texas during the vote. Got my hair cut off again. One time a year. Freeing. “Conflict delayed is conflict multiplied”. What’s it like to avoid tough conversations? Have to determine what is mine, in my lane, my boundaries.  Sticking to them.An authentic life comes with having to be able to make others uncomfortable with our truth. My needs, wants, and desires now at 57. “I’m so lost. I don’t even know who I am anymore.”How can we live a life of this AND that? How is that possible? Accepting it’s OK for me to feel waffled.A new energy of hope in the world. Do you feel it too? “Apathy of Options”.  What does this mean to me? What’s it doing to us?The world is your oyster… and with that, what do we become? We teach others how to treat our boundaries. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Tim Ciani I Dream of Jeannie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Dream_of_JeannieBewitched https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BewitchedThe Autistic Mystic: Conflict delayed is conflict multiplied and Apathy of Options. WHERE CAN YOU FIND ÅSA:Website: https://moremosstothepeople.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/asa.klemack/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/asanilssonsweden/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@asanilssonLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/asajnilsson/CONTACT INFORMATION for KOMEIL ASLI, Podcast Production Manager: Komeil Asli, Freelance UI/UX Designer, Front-End Developer. komeil.asli@gmail.com To find out more about working with Åsa and Thomas, reach out via our website here: https://moremosstothepeople.com/contact/Thank you so much for listening!

  • 18. Legacy Episode with Taimi Nilsson, the Matriarch of my Family

    41:28||Season 3, Ep. 18
    GUEST: Taimi Nilsson DRAWING: Marcus Gunnarsson/ https://www.instagram.com/marcuscgunnarsson/TITLE OF EPISODE: Legacy Episode with Taimi Nilsson, the Matriarch of my FamilySUMMARY OF EPISODE: My mom, the coolest woman on earth, is my guest this week. She is one of those people who sits still, listens to everyone around her, offers thoughts when asked, doesn't overshare, is as chill as a cucumber, and could definitely have been a spy for the CIA. I still wouldn't put it past her!Is this a result of her childhood? Very possibly.Mom is now 88 years young, with 5 children of her own, 10 grandchildren, and 3 great-grandchildren, with friends and loved ones all around the world. I have been begging her to be on the podcast since I started this journey, and it was always a ‘no’. Then it became a ‘maybe’. When I told her that her voice really matters, her stories matter, and others want to hear about her very interesting life, she finally agreed. YEY!Listen in as we discuss Mom's life from the age of 5, escaping an active war in Finland with her 6-year-old sister to begin their new (albeit separate) life in Sweden, up to the point of our family relocating to the USA in 1973. (I hope to have another recording completed with her to bring us from 1973 to today. We’ll see!)And oh, what a journey she has had.Enjoy my greatest hero, my mother.Xx,ÅsaIN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:Recording voices and stories, why is this legacy work?Mom moved from Viljakkala, Finland to Hjo, Sweden at the age of 5 (1942) with her sister Hilkka who was 6 during World War II.Red Cross boats traveling across the Baltic Sea during the war, why weren’t they bombed?Identification card/passport around their necks and their dresses that they wore. What was it like for mom to be separated from her family and be moved to Sweden as a war child? Birth mother wanted the ‘girls’ back to help with finances at home but my moms foster father wrote a letter.Mom, Dad, and my sister Anneli went back to Finland for the first time since mom left in 1958, 17 years later, what was that like for mom seeing her mom and her brother for the first time again?“Molotov-Molotov” what my mom would scream when she heard planes flying over as a child in Sweden.As a child in Finland mom remembers having to run into the forest with white sheets and hide under them so it looked like snow so the bomber planes flying over wouldn’t see them.Moms personality style is very chill and she does not overreact, she waits for information THEN reacts, does this come from her childhood?Mom is a bad ass, rode a motorcycle to work, took her captains license, became an airplane pilot! Loves to learn, to this day. Moms first flight to Oslo, Norway with her friend Goldis, having to make an emergency landing in Karlstad for more fuel! Why is milk and rice a luxury for my mother? 1973 my family moved from Sweden to NewYork, USA. Mom had to take care of everything herself because dad had already moved. Imagine moving across the world with 5 kids from the ages of 5-14 and not having any help? UGH! Why does my mother think we are ‘shit kids’?  :) The feeling of belonging. How does mom as an 88 year old see the world today? Why does she choose to stay in America even if she says Sweden is ‘home’? MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:ASEA, (ABB) https://global.abb/group/enSinead Fine, Tarot for Women, https://tarotforwomen.com/

She has a gentle knowing of what’s to come and is confident that everything will work out.Even when caring for her dying parents, experiencing an anxiety attack while driving through the mountains of North Carolina with two children in the back seat, or bearing the burden and shame of her mother's alcoholism, Alexis maintains her faith and resilience.Join us as we discuss what Alexis' life looks like today. We'll explore her journey through shame, the importance of kindness, having hard conversations, embracing 'lightness,' feeling isolated, grieving alone, the impermanence of everything, finding joy in the next moment, and staying present.She is deeply connected to her highest truth, and the gentle stillness of her being is heartwarming.We hope you enjoy our chat.Xx,ÅsaIN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:Seeking lightness, finding peace, connecting to her true self. 3 years ago the Big Reset.

    GUEST: Thomas Kindberg, my beloved husbandTITLE OF EPISODE: “It’s not just called DEATH CLEANING, It’s called LIFE CLEANING too.”SUMMARY OF EPISODE: June 11th, 2024, marked a significant milestone for our family: Thomas and I proudly launched our Swedish Death Cleaning and Decluttering business, More Moss. Less Mess.This dream has been a long time in the making, and now it's finally a reality.Thomas prefers to stay out of the spotlight, shying away from public speaking and attention. Convincing him to join me on the podcast was a challenge, but I promised it would be quick and that I’d handle most of the talking.My goal was to introduce you to Thomas, the other half of our business, so you could see what our team brings to the table.Listening back, I realized I dominated the conversation, often speaking over him. While this is how we work—I’m more vocal, and he’s more reserved—I wanted to make him comfortable and keep the episode brief for his sake. Still, it was important for you to meet him again.Our mission is to normalize Swedish Death Cleaning, turning it into a regular conversation rather than a daunting task. We aim to make the process of dealing with death less intimidating and more accepted as a natural part of life.Thank you for being part of this journey with us.Åsa and ThomasIN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:June 11th it’s a big day for us. Why? Reminder that I am taking July off from podcasting, RADICAL SABBATICAL.Thomas is now working with me and Swedish Death Cleaning + DeCluttering. Where has he been the past 35 years? Too many people are unhappy in their work and their lives.Society has changed very fast, what can that be based on? Thomas interests lie in the world, news, economy, geography. Åsa and Thomas disagree about how we can or can not make a difference.Saw the beauty of social media in the initial intent for which it was created today.Community. People helping people.Thomas thinks it can be ego driven.The ‘More Moss to the People’ movement and going back to a simple life. Western world problems, psychological stress, kids feeling like shit. Coming back to what’s important. We have to stop over consuming. 95% of wares in Sweden are recycled. Values. Our ground pillars. Feeling more versus having more.Not pessimistic to speak about death, we consider it optimistic.We leave no mess behind.Having safe conversations about this. Circular economy, life cleaning not just death cleaning.You can be 31 years old and do death cleaning.Thomas is my Muscles from Brussels. He will be a big help with moving things down, out and around for our future clients. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Swedbank. https://www.swedbank.se/The first time Thomas appeared on the podcast: Season 1, Episode 9 WHERE CAN YOU FIND THOMAS?Certainly not on social media! Ha!

    HOST: Åsa NilssonTITLE OF EPISODE: Life’s too short to think too much. SUMMARY OF EPISODE:As a self professed ‘overthinker’, I have been training myself little by little over these past few years to see things differently. To experience life from other perspectives and it has helped me to find MY joy. To re-member that FEELING IN will help me discover my truest purpose much quicker than over analyzing and ripping myself apart ever will. Mental wellness for me comes when I am not in stress. How do I keep myself out of stress? I live my life with my Top 3 Core Values front and center at all times. Peace. Freedom. Community. Do you know what yours are? If not, you also may be able to alleviate some unnecessary burdens in your life once you discover them and start living by them.And if you are feeling unwell, physically, emotionally, spiritually…. please get help. Ask. Reach out a hand and do everything you can to take care of YOU. We are not alone. Xx,ÅsaIN THIS EPISODE I DISCUSS:-Had my (our) first ever Sales Page designed and created for More Moss.Less Mess.-Komeil Asli, Arian Parsi of A/P Design -Mental Health Awareness month, May-I went to Stockholm for the day yesterday to help Ray for the final time.-Always have backups when doing death cleaning work. -Our sales offer, go check it out on our new sales page!

Stopping the stories. My needs. My wants. -Top 3 CORE VALUES of my life are Peace, Freedom, and Community.
