This episode is part of the Holiday Repay Series.
We are getting Hygge today on the show because winter is the perfect season to do so. This time, I went straight to the source: Denmark. I started following Diane in Denmark on her Youtube channel a while back, and I knew she was the perfect one to teach us how to Hygge our way through the winter and holiday season. We talk about several ways to get through a long winter and celebrate the season by planning Hygge into our days.

I am so excited to welcome back co-hosts of the Frugal Friends Podcast - Jen Smith (personal finance expert) and Jill Sirianni (social worker) here on Minimal-ish to talk about all things values-based spending during the holiday season. Around here, we are no stranger to intentional living in many areas of our lives, including our spending habits. I absolutely loved this conversation because Jen and Jill bring such an incredibly gentle yet practical approach to navigating holiday budgeting with that same level of intention we strive for in our day to day life.

Today I'm in reflection mode because my oldest daughter just turned 7, which also means my husband and I learned about minimalism and decluttered our home for the first time ALMOST 7 years ago. Additionally, I started the podcast right before my daughter turned 1, so Minimal-ish is officially 6 years old!
With all of these milestones has come some reflecting- so I'm bringing you 7 big lessons I've learned about both motherhood and minimalism. I love doing episodes like this one, so I hope you enjoy it! At the end, I ask you to send me your favorite thing you've learned about motherhood and/or minimalism. Find me on instagram or via email to do so ([email protected]).

Today I'm bringing you an episode that stemmed from a little check in with myself earlier this week. As I've entered a new much busier season of life that has come with big change for our family, it has been trial and error trying to figure out our new routine, how to be intentional with it, and how to support myself and my family during this time of change. If you're in a. busy season or a season of change, I hope these tips bring you the permission you need to let go of some things along with some actionable tips.

At the end of one of the busiest weeks of the year for my family, I'm bringing you a replay episode of my favorite episode of the podcast that speaks to me now just as much as it did two years ago. Shauna Niequist had always been my dream guest, and that dream came true in spring of 2022! I'm so excited to replay this episode for you as you may not have heard it yet being that it is far down in the archives. Even if you've heard it, it's one of those must-re-listen episodes.
Shauna and I talk about change, the mourning that can come with change, and how we can embrace a new season even if it feels like someone is prying the old season from our hands. If you're going through change of any kind, change can be so hard. This episode is here to be a warm embrace. Grab a cup of something warm and listen in again, or for the first time.

Today I'm sharing a solo episode where I talk through some details of how we overhauled our summer routine when our days were feeling very unstructured and unintentional. First I share some steps I take when I'm ready to change up a routine. I then share a little more behind the scenes of routine changes and visuals that worked for our family to go from unintentional summer routine to much more structure and intention in our days. I'm sharing about our summer routine since we had some practice in making sure it worked. However, I'll be applying these concepts to our back to school/ fall routines over the next few weeks.
I hope you enjoy this episode! thank you for listening in!

Today I'm sharing a behind the scenes/ declutter with me style episode, but we're talking about travel instead of decluttering. I take you along my thought process when it comes to being intentional and minimal-ish while prepping and packing for my upcoming trip. We're more-so focused on my version of intentional vacationing vs. what exactly is in our suitcases. After all, the living is more important than the stuff.
