In the final episode of the Slow Style Home podcast for 2024, I talk to Stephanie O'Dea, the author of 'Slow Living: Cultivating a Life of Purpose in a Hustle Driven World.' We dive into how her book provides actionable steps for reorienting one's mindset towards a purposeful life, away from societal pressures. Stephanie explains the concept of slow living, which she defines as 'simply look only within,' focusing on intentional, sustainable living. We discuss her transition from writing bestselling cookbooks to advocating slow living, her experiences with societal pressures, and the necessity of aligning personal success with authentic desires. Stephanie emphasizes the importance of small, manageable steps towards goals, rather than striving for perfection. We also touch on the implications of social media-induced FOMO and decision fatigue, and the need to remain intentional in our daily lives.
