Progress over perfection — I wish I would have practiced this a lot earlier in life. Instead, I focused on perfection and constant failures.

Most people I know would LOVE to find a little more peace in their lives. Minimalism may not be the only answer, but it has significantly changed my life and has definitely added to my peace. There’s so much comfort in not only knowing your home is in order and not nagging at you to tidy up, but also to practice emotional minimalism and letting go of negativity.

I hope you enjoy the episode and find more peace in your life!

It’s time for another Minimalist Mini and this time, we’re spring cleaning the bathroom. Living with less makes life easier in so many ways, but it’s even more apparent in the bathroom. It simplifies your routines and clean-up schedules, giving you extra time to do more of what you want.

Happy Spring Cleaning!

In this Bedroom Edition of the Spring Cleaning mini series of mini episodes, I’m sharing with you how I went through my bedroom and wardrobe. It can be difficult to let go of clothing, shoes, and items on our nightstands that we look at every day. However, having a space where we feel restful and relaxed can be such a blessing in our lives, it makes it all worth it.
