Today we have a hybrid episode: part solo episode/ part guest episode. I'm bringing you all of my tips for a minimal-ish postpartum, and I'm also bringing on a guest, Dr. Nicole Sparks, board certified OBGYN, to talk about simplifying postpartum care and her biggest tips for new moms.

We go through the four pillars of Minimal-ish living and apply them to postpartum life in today's episode. If you're going through the postpartum period, or will be postpartum in the near future, I hope this episode brings you some helpful tips in what can be a difficult season!

Today we have a solo episode where we are taking time to celebrate the routines that help me stay intentional at home, which ranges from self-care to productivity to home management style routines. As always, you will leave this episode with some encouragement + reminders to celebrate your own wins instead of always focusing on what’s not working.

230: 6 Routines That Help Me Get Intentional at Home

Today I’m bringing you my conversation with special guest Myquillyn Smith where she is talking all about simplified home decor. She’s sharing several realistic tips and tricks from her new book ‘House Rules’, such as how to redecorate or reconfigure a room on a budget, adding layers of “coziness”, or the importance of decluttering a space to make it feel more clean and simple. I was so encouraged by her down-to-earth, walk-with-me approach for any woman who feels like they aren’t a “naturally inclined” home decorator. I know you’ll love this episode as much as I did!
