Minimal-ish: Minimalism, Intentional Living, Motherhood

Today I have another edition of the Minimal-ish Replay series where I'm bringing back episodes from the archives that need a second (or first) listen. Today's replay is with Joshua Becker - it is the second time I had him as a guest on the show and it was a conversation I'll never forget about intentional living. We talked about his book, ⁠Things that Matter: Overcoming Distraction to Pursue a more Meaningful Life.⁠ In his book, Joshua details 8 distractions that keep us from living an intentional life, and in our conversation, we talked in depth about two of those distractions. We cover the distraction of fear and the distraction of technology - two distractions I believe so many of us struggle with.

In today's episode, Ruth Chou Simons is my guest. Ruth shares insights from her book 'This Moment Matters,' and we talk about simplifying life, routines, our wardrobes, taking care of ourselves, screen time, and stewarding our time and resources well. Ruth focuses on a version of intentional living that I believe will help you center yourself on what matters most. I hope you listen in and enjoy!

Today I am bringing you another episode from the archives! Now that we've hit 300 episodes, I'm bringing back an episode I think deserves a fresh replay each week!

Today I have the honor of sharing my conversation with Christy Wright. We talked all about balance - what it means and why we are always in search of it. I absolutely love Christy's take on balance, the way it looks different in different seasons, and how we can achieve it. We also talk about to - do lists and calendars and ways we can make them actually work for us.
