Hillside Talks

When we purchased our apartment, the kitchen really needed some tweaking for it to work for us as a small family. We decided to get creative and do it on a tight budget, and we ended up with a result that really works for us!

This episode starts off my mini-series about our homes. Decorating is fun, and making our homes reflect who we are can be really powerful. It just often leads to a lot of money being spent (and natural resources being used!). We always try to limit our footprint on this planet which means getting really creative when it comes to an area like our home. This week I walk you though our fun mission to fix the acoustics in our dining room - primarily with things we found on the street :)

Making homemade gifts for people is fun, but I've learned by experience, that a bit of planning is a good idea. I like to make a lot of gifts, and I usually start early, so I have plenty of time to enjoy the process. I also share some ideas on how to consider your friend or family members' love language, when planning what to make for them.

With the Christmas season coming up, I also touch on the core of Christmas, Jesus was born, that is what we celebrate ...and feel free to take the pressure of the idea of "the perfect Christmas"!

The past 14 years I've navigated pretty strictly by my top3 priorities. They have helped us make decisions (big and small). They helped us pay of our debt way faster than the bank estimated and travel while doing it. To me, priorities is a under-valued tool that everyone can benefit from.

My conversation with Karla Dalsgaard was fantastic. She's a 21-year-old Danish entrepreneur. She started knitting during Covid in lock down (on a boat) and then years later started creating her own patters when she got stuck on a plane. I hope you enjoy this conversation and her takes on creativity.

About 6 years ago, I gave myself a challenge. I set a goal to either make from scratch or thrift 80% of my clothing. I share my motivation for doing that, and how I plan it. As part of the challenge, I had to learn how to knit sweaters. It was quiet difficult learning to understand the recipes, but it is also so much fun and something I still really enjoy doing.

My husband Morten is back on the podcast. We have decided that we want him on for every topic I cover on the podcast for a spouse perspective - and to get a dudes perspective. We talk about the 80/20 rule, thrifting, being frugal, how pre-used clothing fits and if "higher price" means "better quality".

Happy fall everyone! It's September, fall is officially here, whether we like it or not:) This weeks episode is about stopping and noticing the changes and beauty around us. The days get shorter (for many of us) and that affects our bodies. I've learned that good things can come from applying some intentionality to this change.
