If so, do you ever wonder if choosing different colors would look better on you? Or maybe you struggle with getting all of your colors to coordinate and look good together instead of feeling like you're drowning in a sea of mismatched rainbows.My guest this week on the Wannabe Minimalist Podcast is a color expert that helps women find their best colors based on their skin, hair, and eye color so I invited her on to help us decipher this world of color.To be honest, I'm a sucker for a capsule wardrobe, but have never been comfortable with much color.Jeannie Stith is on a mission to help those of us who are lost when it comes to color. She is the founder and CEO of Color Guru, where she matches people to their ideal color palette for clothing so that they can look better, simplify clothes shopping, and create a coordinated wardrobe through her signature color cards.Jeannie's a mother of two girls and lives in Arden, Delaware. When she’s not analyzing her client's photos, you can find her hopping on rocks in the creek with her daughters, salsa dancing, or watering her current collection of 55 house plants.Our discussions starts with looking at how Jeannie became interested in colors in the first place and we tackle what's involved with finding the colors that will work best for you. I also press her when it comes to what you should do when you don't like the colors that have been suggested for you in the past.This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover: Why your closet may be letting you down A simple way to hone in on your ideal color palette The color that will make your eyes pop - it might just surprise you!

There are so many goodies and treats on display at every turn beckoning us to indulge. So, how can we be more intentional about what we eat without missing out on the good stuff, watching the scale climb, or feeling guilty?My guest this week on the Wannabe Minimalist Podcast has been helping women eat healthier and feel better for years so naturally I reached out to have her on the show to help us during this difficult time.Laura Marzen, RD, LD, started her career as a nutrition specialist in the Better Homes and Gardens® test kitchen, where she developed and tested recipes for a variety of magazines and cookbooks and appeared in cooking videos for both TV and online media.Now she’s focusing her attention on her website, Fresh Food Bites, www.freshfoodbites.com, where she features healthy, approachable, family-friendly recipes that are gluten and dairy free.In addition, she currently coaches women to help them improve their gut health and overcome IBS in a way that is practical and sustainable.Our discussions starts with looking at how Laura became interested in digestive health and what it has to do with living an intentional life. There are so many similarities between cutting the crap out of your home and cutting out the junk that you eat so I was thrilled to have a chance to connect with her on the show.This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover: Why your calendar is one of your biggest assets when meal planning Simple healthy snack ideas your kids will actually eat Tips for eating healthy at the holidays (it’s not what you expect!)

Of course we are all thankful for the wonderful people in our lives and our health (if we are lucky to have it), but this year, I want to encourage you to find ways to be thankful for your home.It's so easy to get bogged down and overwhelmed by the everyday maintenance and upkeep of a home - there are bills to pay, meals to cook, tubs and toilets to scrub, laundry to fold, and a never ending pile of dishes to wash - ugh...the dishes. Then, there might be all of the changes in your home that you wish to make - tidy up your living room, declutter your bedroom, toss the mounds of toys! Am I right?So, instead of focusing on what we don't like or the things we want to change, take some time this year and hone in on what you love about your home. It's okay to enjoy and relish in the physical things you love about it or how it makes you feel. Building up a bank of gratitude will not only help you to be happier and see all of the blessings in your life, but it will help you work through any challenges that come up - like when you tackle that decluttering project in the new year.This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover: 7 questions to help you uncover what you love about your home A simple project to increase gratitude all year long Why gratitude is so important How gratitude can help you declutter and share A peek into 7 things I love about my home **********************Music:Fresh Lift by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.comHappy by MBB https://soundcloud.com/mbbofficial Creative Commons — Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported — CC BY-SA 3.0Free Download / Stream: https://bit.ly/Happy-MBB Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/g6swHZbWtRc **********************Subscribe & ReviewAre you subscribed to the Wannabe Clutter Free podcast?

Well, my friend, you are in luck.This may sound strange coming from someone who classifies themselves as a wannabe minimalist, but I believe minimalism is about giving yourself the freedom and ability to say no to the things that you don't like or that don't matter to you, so that you can fully embrace the things that do work for you (and the people you share your life with). That is true in all of the areas in your life from what you wear to the hobbies you choose, and of course in how you style your home.My guest knows a thing or two about creating a unique space. She did this for herself and her family when she found herself living in suburbia after a cross-country move, instead of in the 100-year-old farmhouse she had been dreaming of.Marian Parson is a wife, mother of two boys, paint enthusiast, lover of all things home and author of *Feels Like Home*. She started Mustard Seed Interiors in 2008, as a way to earn extra money for groceries. What started out as a one-woman decorative painting and mural business evolved into an antiques business that tripped into a blog and blossomed into a successful international brand. While the focus has been on the home, the heart of her blog and business has always been providing encouragement and inspiration to women in the areas of decorating, homemaking, and creative endeavors.Our discussions starts with looking at how Marian's journey started and why our relationships with our homes are so important. Then we dive into an area I was selfishly looking forward to and that's how to style your home to make people say, wow, you did this?This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover: Why it's important to create a space that is a reflection of who lives there 5 steps to take your space from nice to wow!

But, for new minimalists - or anyone looking to declutter the abundance of stuff in their homes - the holidays also come with the dread of telling well-meaning family that they do not want many presents.This can be a tough conversation to have because for some people, giving gifts is the way they communicate love. And because they love you so much, they want to shower you with more gifts, trinkets, toys, and goodies to last you a lifetime.Unfortunately this can be a major source of frustration for not only the gift receiver as they stress about the perhaps unwanted gifts coming into their home, but also for the gift giver who may feel unappreciated.Instead of being ungrateful and telling the people in your life that any gifts they give you will be promptly donated (seriously, please do not do that), there are some great ways we can be open an honest with the overly-generous people in our lives without hurting their feelings.This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover: The importance of sharing why you want fewer physical presents 3 strategies for talking to a well-meaning gift giver A subtle but important mind shift that will help you at the holidays The 5 love languages - not all have to do with giving things One thing you can do to cut back on clutter at the holidays **********************Music:Fresh Lift by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.comHappy by MBB https://soundcloud.com/mbbofficial Creative Commons — Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported — CC BY-SA 3.0Free Download / Stream: https://bit.ly/Happy-MBB Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/g6swHZbWtRc **********************Subscribe & ReviewAre you subscribed to the Wannabe Clutter Free podcast?

My daughter is eight and I felt it was time to help her understand money, how it's earned, how it can grow, and what it can and cannot do. As it turns out, I'm a bit late to the game, but my guest was able to show me that while I am late, it's still fixable.Chelsea is the founder of Smart Money Mamas and its monthly membership community, the Motivated Mama Society. An ex-hedge fund manager turned financial educator, she is dedicated to changing the way we talk about money, helping moms connect with all aspects of their money in a way that lets them overcome emotional blocks, identify what they most want, and create the healthy money habits that help them achieve their biggest goals. All while modeling positive money relationships for the next generation.Our discussions starts with looking at how to establish money values if you didn't come from a family that talked about money and we take a deep look at how to help children save and foster a giving spirit. Not only will today's lesson help you with your money mindsets, it will also help you look at your stuff in a new light as well.This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover: Why money mindsets are so important What age your core money ideas are formed (and it's earlier than you think) How you can create better money habits with 3 words Simple tips for instilling generosity in your children If allowances are a good idea **********************Music:Fresh Lift by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.comHappy by MBB https://soundcloud.com/mbbofficial Creative Commons — Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported — CC BY-SA 3.0Free Download / Stream: https://bit.ly/Happy-MBB Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/g6swHZbWtRc **********************Subscribe & ReviewAre you subscribed to the Wannabe Clutter Free podcast?

At least that's what the songs and marketers tell us anyway. We're constantly told that the holiday season is supposed to feel special and magical. Christmas is a time filled with love, laughter, coziness, and connection. But, can I be honest with you? The holidays are stressful. Or at least they can be if you try to do all the things, be at all the places, and close your eyes as you repeatedly swipe your credit card and buy more stuff than you need.That's why as a family we said enough was enough and gradually over the past few years have honed in on what we really want to focus on for the holiday season. And I am not alone. Throughout the years I have continued to get questions about how to simplify decorations and gift giving, how to find more meaning and connection, and how to keep a home organized in spite of the hustle and bustle.So, I thought it was time to do a Q & A session to tackle your big questions for the season. I chat a bit about what we do for the holidays to keep it meaningful yet simple and stress-free as well as what you can do to prepare for the season in your own home.This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you: Determine what the holidays mean for you How to recreate the magic you felt as a child Why more stuff is not the answer Ways to cut back on toys and gifts but not feel like Scrooge Simple decoration ideas to cut down on clutter but not the festive feel **********************Music:Fresh Lift by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.comHappy by MBB https://soundcloud.com/mbbofficial Creative Commons — Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported — CC BY-SA 3.0Free Download / Stream: https://bit.ly/Happy-MBB Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/g6swHZbWtRc **********************Subscribe & ReviewAre you subscribed to the Wannabe Clutter Free podcast?
