Do you know why factory tours are so popular?

Is it because:

* We want to see how the sausage is made, even if we say otherwise?

* We feel a deeper connection to a creator as we get further behind-the-scenes?

* We like free beer?

There’s no free beer here. But you’ll dig this SimpleREV factory tour and the exciting vision being shared for the first time.

After all, it’s all about you.

I go solo in this episode to talk about the grand vision of redefining simple living … SimpleREV style.

How we can be intentional about what we think and do? Where do mindfulness and gratitude hang out?

Why it’s so dang important to develop a sense of “enough?” How can we be consumed with something other than consumption?

All these questions can be answered by our community of simple living enthusiasts.

It doesn’t hurt to have an amazing framework to build upon, which is what we’ve found in Jonathan Fields’ 18-step process to start non-violent revolutions.

So let’s take the SimpleREV factory tour together right now. Make sure to holler if we need to improve the workers, process, and story as you see the challenges, champions, and direction of this simple living movement,.
