June 15, 2022 Minimalism and Your Family with Joshua Becker
This episode has not only inspired our family, but it’s put us into action more than we could have ever imagined! We are simplifying our lives and it feels so good. We feel more settled, free, and focused. But why is it that it took donating and getting rid of “stuff” to do that?

In this episode, Josh and Christi have an inspiring conversation with Joshua Becker, author and minimalist, about his new book Things That Matter. They talk about Joshua’s story and why it is that the more possessions we hold onto, the more we become distracted from what actually matters.

In this episode, Josh and Christi talk about chapter 8 in their new book, Famous at Home. They discuss the importance of giving yourself permission to focus on your own story, so that you can gracefully step into your child's story. The question you're left with is: "Who are you becoming?"
