Order Your Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living & Parenting with Simplicity----Any family with children will experience their fair share of toys throughout the years. It’s inevitable that some will slip in that have a short longevity; however, being intentional in this area isn’t as hard as it seems and simple strategies can help foster diverse play experiences for children without filing our playroom with junk. Join me today as I talk with founder of Tiny Earth Toys, Rachel Classi. She’ll discuss scientific studies that discuss the benefits of minimal toys in the playroom, how the choices we make about what toys to buy impact our child's play and the environment, what we know about how the toy industry is playing a role in the plastic crisis and tips for parents about how to take the power struggle out of gifting to align with your family values.Show Notes for EP179: Creating an Eco-Friendly PlayroomEnjoy this Podcast?Learning how you can get rid of clutter and live an intentional and purposeful life has never been this simple.

Wholesale retail stores such as this are able to sell their products for much cheaper than local businesses; however, the question I pose to you and my guest today, Carly Adams, is: is bulk shopping anti-minimalist? There is a certain affordability when it comes to big chains; however, big-box retail stores also promote consumerism due to the sheer volume of products for sale. As we work through this topic, I’m sure you’ll build your own pros and cons list to see whether it’s the right choice for your family.Show Notes for EP177: Is Bulk Shopping Anti-Minimalist?Enjoy this Podcast?Learning how you can get rid of clutter and live an intentional and purposeful life has never been this simple.

Once you see and experience how good your home and closet feel, you want every area of your life to feel that way.” I wholeheartedly agree this statement from author, Christine Platt (also known in the minimalist community as The Afrominimalist). Christine is my guest today and we’ll discuss her upcoming book, 'authenticity over aesthetics' and how less is liberating in our lives. Show Notes for EP176: The Afrominimalist's Guide to Living with Less with Christine PlattEnjoy this Podcast?Learning how you can get rid of clutter and live an intentional and purposeful life has never been this simple.
