Minimal-ish: Minimalism, Intentional Living, Motherhood

Today I'm bringing you a Declutter With Me episode where I share my recent "scariest" area of my house - the clothing. I have always struggled with systems around the clothes, but one thing that always works is decluttering. Today I take you through our current clothing situation, talk about things I'm keeping in mind as I declutter both my kids' and my own wardrobes, share some thoughts on sentimental clothing items, and encourage you if you struggle to manage this area of your home.

Today I'm bringing you another replay episode where I talk with Rachel Nielson, host of the 3 and 30 podcast, all about ways we can "declutter our motherhood." We talk about topics that range from a practical way to find joy in the everyday, mundane moments, to decluttering all the "shoulds" we put on ourselves in motherhood. Rachel also shares about her struggle with depression in early motherhood. I know this is a conversation that will leave you feeling encouraged and less alone after you listen.

In this episode, my guest Kassandra Botkin shares her journey from a non-tech mom to creating an AI-powered tool that helps busy moms save time and reduce mental load. We talk about how AI can be accessible and practical for everyday life, and how we can use it intentionally instead of haphazardly. It's all about delegating so we can focus more time on what matters. Links: Kassandra on Instagram Get the App Desirae on Instagram Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

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.
