Do you think your family or friends will laugh at you when you tell them you want to declutter your home, get rid of the stuff overwhelming your life, and live with intention?My guest on the latest episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show can help you overcome these fears. Kelsey Sholin from delightofmine.com is new on her path toward living with less stuff so that she can enjoy life more.As a mom of three very energetic boys, Kelsey has recently discovered the importance of having a simplified home. While she says the process of actually decluttering the stuff is not easy and they’re emotionally attached to some of their possessions, it’s been so worth all the effort to free up space and have less material items demanding their attention all the time.That’s nothing to be embarrassed about.Your family, friends, and internal spirit are worth your attention and love and are so much more important that all the stuff we have been told we are supposed to care about so don’t let that fear of what other’s will think hold you back any longer.Kelsey also has an amazing tip for anyone just starting out. When you are at the bottom of a mountain, it can be daunting to see the giant peak in front of you, but she uses a brilliant and simple mind shift to get over this hurdle. She realized that half will always be greater than zero. So even if the task cannot be fully completed or done perfectly in the moment, she no longer puts it off until later. Instead she completes as much of it as she can because doing something is better than doing nothing.If you have ever wondered how to start decluttering or worried about what others might think when you do, this show is for you.This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will help you discover: What it’s like to start your minimalism journey with kids Kelsey’s secret to decluttering even if you don’t have enough time Why even small efforts can make a BIG difference How to overcome embarrassment when going after your dreams The best advice about minimalism Kelsey’s ever received **********************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, you could make a sour face and complain, or you could look at the situation for what it is and move forward with lemonade.The latter is what my guest, Sarah Baehr of TheBaehrNecessities.com did when she and her husband discovered they were in over their heads thanks to some poor financial decisions early on in their marriage.Through a very chaotic year, she discovered that what she was really after was a life of intention. Minimalism and living with less stuff came along as a welcomed byproduct, but wasn’t the first thing Sarah thought she wanted.Instead, she discovered the secrets of how to simplify her life amidst chaos and she’s helping us do it too.Sarah reminds us that life can be simple when we just take a minute to press the pause button. I know it may not feel possible at times, but if you can remember to breath and think about the end goal of what you really want your life to look like, you too can see through the chaos and get to the other side.Big changes are possible and I was thrilled to get to chat with Sarah about her determination to make a change (or 2 or 3) that led to her life of intention on her journey toward minimalism.Sarah is a wife, a mom of two girls and their beloved pug, as well as an intentional living coach. She is passionate about helping overwhelmed moms cultivate their homes and lives simply, beautifully, and on purpose.After moving twice and having a second child in less than 12 months, she found there was more to life and motherhood than a packed schedule and possessions. Sarah encourages moms to kick clutter and chaos in order to find more joy in motherhood just as she did.If you have ever wondered if life could be less chaotic by decluttering, this show is for you.This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will help you discover: How to look at your life with a clear lens Sarah’s secret to changing your life right now An amazing tip for keeps kids things decluttered How to incorporate gratitude in daily life for you and your children The best advice about minimalism Sarah’s ever received **********************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?

I’ve been in your shoes and tried the most popular methods of clearing out the clutter from our home, but there was lots of information that just didn’t fit with our need for things to change fast.After all, we’re a busy family. As a mom, I have too much going on in a day to take out everything I own and sort through it, like the Konmari Method says I should. I can’t remove all of my furniture and put it back like an interior designer, a la the Cozy Minimalist method. And especially with COVID looming in the air, I do not want to think about dying, like I need to with Swedish Death Cleaning.So I combined the best tactics of these popular methods - and some fringe decluttering ideas - into the 5 simple steps of the QUICK Decluttering Method. These steps work for ANYONE and can be done at your own pace.Start small with just one drawer, one shelf, or one room. Or go big and tackle your entire home in a weekend.Either way, just follow the steps in order and you will banish clutter from your home quicker than you thought possible. :)I am loving the decluttered feeling of our home and so want that for you too. Give it a try and let me know how it goes!This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will help you discover: What QUICK Decluttering is and how it works Why the QUICK Declutter Method is different from other methods The exact steps to make decluttering quicker than ever How to make sure clutter never returns The best way to start decluttering and why this step is often missed **********************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?

Of course not!The beauty of minimalism (and it’s not just a decorating style with stark white walls) is that it can spill into every area of your life if you allow it. Minimalism is living intentionally and being mindful of the things we let into our lives and homes and as today’s guest reminds us, what we put on our bodies.I was thrilled to get to chat with Jenny Brereton about clean beauty on the latest episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show because she has such a passion for how to incorporate healthier products into our routines and what clean beauty can do for all of us.She reminds us that the beauty industry has very little regulation and unlike a lot of the modern world, the USA has not banned many ingredients that are considered harmful in other countries. We need to be our own advocates and use our money to purchase healthier options for our families. The problem is that it can be difficult to know which products to buy. Thankfully this episode gives you a great place to start.Jenny has always had a passion for her health, the environment, and caring for animals. She loves working with women in helping them feel beautiful and confident.After learning about the dangers we put on our bodies through our beauty products, it became her mission to educate other women on recognizing the toxins in their products.If you have ever considered being more intentional with the beauty products you buy or thought about clean beauty, this show is for you.This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will help you discover: What clean beauty means? 10 ingredients you should avoid when purchasing beauty products Better sun care alternatives that won’t harm the ocean but at just as effective against sun damage The #1 Jenny suggests you do to get started when going through your beauty products How to simplify your beauty routine to save time and money everyday **********************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?
