The Tortoise with Brooke McAlary

Combining Simple Living and Kids with Rachel Jonat


Listen Later

Rachel Jonat is back for her second visit to the pogpast and, as always, it’s such a great conversation.

Last they spoke, Rachel and her family had recently moved back to Vancouver from the Isle of Man and were finding their feet and discovering what it meant to keep a slow and simple pace in a busy city.

Today they talk about the move, and the unintentional decluttering that came when a lot of their possessions were ruined in transit.

Rachel and Brooke also talk about her new book and what it looks like to live a minimalist life with three young boys - particularly the baby years. They talk about creating a home that’s flexible enough to change as your family grows, and Brooke decides that their families should house-swap very soon - whether Rachel wants to or not.
