Why I'm Choosing Less (and Finding More!)
Description
In this episode of The Web, I'm sharing a very personal journey — how I've been practicing essentialism this past year and what it's teaching me about life, home, and Circle.
By nature, I'm someone with a thousand ideas and endless excitement for new possibilities. I love that about myself, but it can also leave me spread too thin, frantic, and giving myself away. Learning to let go — to do less, but better — has been revolutionary for me, and it continues to be a work in progress.
In this episode, I explore:
✨ What happened when I pared down my business to focus on Circle
✨ How decluttering my home created surprising peace and clarity
✨ The perennial spiritual wisdom that connects simplicity with freedom
✨ Why facilitators often hide in chaos — and what changes when we distill our work
✨ How I learned, through retreat prep, that adding more can dilute the magic
✨ Circle itself as the perfect example of "less, but better"
✨ Simple reflections to help you empty your own bowl
This practice of essentialism isn't about perfection. It's about courageously letting go of the clutter so there's room for what matters most. My hope is that hearing my story encourages you to find your own way of choosing less — and discovering the more that's waiting there for you.
