A Thousand Tiny Steps

Taking on the Minimalist Lifestyle


Listen Later

My morning routine will never be full of meditation and yoga. Instead it is currently filled with decluttering my household one bin at a time. This is in an effort to be more of a minimalist and carefully consider why I own the things I do. In this episode, I explore the grief attached to certain items and how I'm working on it.
