Is there something that has made you think other people can do that, but not me? This episode is part of a monthly series to convince you otherwise. These episodes feature real women who are answering the question “How do you…?” about their various passions and pursuits.
Do books bring up memories for you? There are certain books that transport me right back to childhood, and some I've even enjoyed with my own kids. And even though reading was a big part of my life, somewhere along the way I stopped doing it. Reading then became a focus of my first Do Something List, and the results of prioritizing it again really surprised me.
In this episode Annette (a community member just like you!) tackles almost every obstacle that might be keeping you from being the reader you once were, or just want to become. I hope this episode gives you the boost to get started!

For many of the early years of our marriage and family we lived in tight quarters that required a lot of diligence around the stuff we brought into our home. When I reflect on that, I realize I learned valuable lessons on organizing, purging, and being intentional about what we surround ourselves with. Those methods continue to shape my perspective even as our family and living space grows. 
Seeking guidance on how to apply more minimalist principles to everyday life, I invited Diane Boden, author and podcaster of Minimalist Moms, to join the conversation. Diane shares her insightful journey to minimalism, emphasizing the importance of living with intention and finding freedom in simplicity. Together, we explore deep principles and practical tips that can help anyone create a more intentional and fulfilling lifestyle, even for those who may not fit the traditional minimalist mold.

In this coaching call with Katie, she shares a challenging adjustment period following the addition of a child to her family, and how she is now ready to reprioritize her creative pursuits.
