Minimal-ish: Minimalism, Intentional Living, Motherhood

154: Decluttering Our Kids Stuff Part 1 - A Mindset Shift - Can it Become Selfish?


Listen Later

I'm bringing you a two part series on what I'm learning as I declutter with my 5 year old daughter. First, we are starting with a reflection. Next week we will get a little more practical with the how.

As I was cleaning up my home, doing a nightly reset, this question occurred to me and caused me to reflect. Is our pursuit of minimalism selfish if we have kids. I've seen similar questions discussed in minimalism focused Facebook Groups, and I really wanted to reflect on it for my own home.

In this episode, I bring you along on my reflection and offer some questions for you to reflect on this for yourself.

When it comes down to it, our why for minimalism is often far from selfish, but my own pursuit for a minimalist aesthetic in my home has crossed the line, and has become a stressor for me in the past. Let's talk more about this- Listen in!
