- Quiet Matters episode 6: Minimalism and decluttering - the why and the how
This week's episode is all about minimalism, simplifying and decluttering, and why I think it pairs really well with living a life that is more intentional and more joyful. I am absolutely clear that it’s by no means essential to be a minimalist to live a meaningful life, but I think they pair up pretty nicely. Full show notes on my website.
39 min - Quiet Matters episode 5: rejecting the myth of rejecting the myth of doing it all (no, that’s not a typo)
There is a lot of talk online about rejecting the myth of doing it all. But at that same time as we're seeing that theoretically empowering message (and often even in the same place as we're seeing it) we're also seeing a lifestyle that is perfect, where someone clearly is 'doing it all, and is living a lifestyle that is perhaps a lot busier and more full on than it appears in the carefully curated world of a social media feed or YouTube channel.
I want to talk about genuinely rejecting that myth of doing it all, not just pretending to. I want to embrace a life that’s a little less picture perfect but contains a whole lot more of what I love. In this episode I’m talking through why we need to really own rejecting that myth and allow our lives to not be picture perfect. I’m also discussing some ways to accept the joy of doing less, and some tips and tricks for abandoning the myth of doing it all in your own life.
