Minimal-ish: Minimalism, Intentional Living, Motherhood

Today's episode is a practical one on getting ourselves in the right mindset to take the time and space needed to shop intentionally this season. We talk about list making, giving ourselves enough time, different ways to be more intentional with our shopping/ spending this season, and I go a little more into detail about how we do secondhand shopping for Christmas in our house. I hope you enjoy this lighthearted yet purposeful chat about holiday shopping! //Links// Mercari (Get a 10$ credit for using this link to sign up) Facebook Marketplace Desirae on Instagram Podcast Website //Sponsor// This episode is sponsored by Public Goods, a one stop shop for clean and ethically sourced everyday essentials!

I talk with Ashley Brown of Routine & Things today. We cover what it means to set life giving routines and be kind to yourself in the midst of following through with them. We also talk about what to do when a routine isn't working anymore in the midst of changing seasons and how to adhere to routines when you feel like you just maybe aren't a consistent person. This is one of my favorite conversations I've had on the topic and I know Ashley's perspective will encourage you!

A short encouragement today - that you don't always have to strive to be and do all the things. In a season of change and transition, or in any season where you have a lot on your plate - if there's something you're striving for that is overwhelming you, this is an encouragement to table it for now. You don't have to fully let it go - just set it aside til things are less chaotic and you can decide to pick it up again. Listen in for more as we continue talking about seasons of change and transition. Head to the podcast website Grab a copy of Simple Morning Lists Learn more about your ad choices.

I'm so excited to bring you the first episode of the podcast with the new name, With Intention! Check out the trailer I released to understand the change a little better! Today I'm diving into a question that I repeatedly got from listeners during the break I took with the podcast - how is it going? How are all the changes going? How is your new job? Because I got so many questions like this, and others related to adjustments and changes that life brings us, I'm starting a quick series for a few episodes where we'll cover some different ones. My main goal is for you to feel encouraged + less alone in whatever changes are coming your way. Today I talk about my personal transition to full time working mom life and I cover: -The main fear I've had during this adjustment -The lies we all might be inclined to believe about motherhood when it comes to working or staying at home. -4 things I've learned in the midst of the change -How minimalism is still making all the difference.
