    Do you ever take time to reflect back on your progress over the years?

    I know it’s super important to build in moments of reflection so you can cherish how far you’ve come even when you feel there is still further to go. So, that’s what I’m doing today as part of our 200th episode celebration!!

    I’m reflecting not only on the journey of the podcast, but diving into several lessons I’ve learned on my personal decluttering adventure over the last decade. I look back on each year and share the biggest lesson from each milestone - whether that’s because of where we were living at the time or what was happening in our life at that moment.

    This episode dives deep into our adventures since 2014, detailing her travels, learnings, and experiences in minimalism, decluttering, and living with less. Each year brings unique lessons, from the importance of letting go and the cycle of stuff, to capsule wardrobes and understanding your personal values.

    These lessons are shared in hopes that they will help you understand the journey toward a life with less may not always be easy, but it is definitely worth the effort.

    This episode will also help you discover:

    • The impact of decluttering on your mindsets
    • Why decluttering should be seen as a journey, not a destination
    • How your life circumstances affect your decluttering efforts
    • Ways letting go can free you up for more
    • Tips for creating your own personal minimalism journey
