Today I have Joshua Becker back on the podcast to talk about his newest book, Things that Matter: Overcoming Distraction to Pursue a more Meaningful Life. In his book, Joshua details 8 distractions that keep us from living an intentional life, and today we are talking in depth about two of those distractions. We cover the distraction of fear and the distraction of technology - two distractions I believe so many of us struggle with.

136: Two Distractions that are Keeping You from the Things That Matter with Joshua Becker

Minimal-ish is a podcast hosted by Desirae Endres about striving to live with less of the things that don't matter, more of what does, and pursuing intention in every area of our everyday lives and motherhood. We'll talk about a realistic version of minimalism, family life, motherhood, work, caring for ourselves, budgeting and intentional finances, and everything in between.

In today's episode, I'm bringing you a replay of one of my favorite conversations that is perfect for summertime. I talk with Jamie Baker about finding personal style and feeling confident in our clothes. We discuss the importance of curating a wardrobe that fits our current bodies and lifestyles, and Jammie brings tips for shopping with intention. This conversation is timely with summer coming soon, because we all know shorts and swimsuit season can bring some feelings and have us not loving our closets as much as other times of the year.

232: Curating a Closet You Love (Even in the Summer) With Jammie Baker (A Minimal-ish Summer Replay)

Today we are wrapping up our Getting Intentional At Home series with special guest Carly Hill of Debt Free Mom. Carly and I are talking all about contentment, how caring for what we already have can foster these feelings both inside and outside our homes, and all of the mental, physical, and financial effects of chronic discontentment.  She also shares her personal experience with moving and how she applies these concepts to improve her perspective and find peace in her temporary living situation. I always love having Carly share her wisdom here on Minimal-ish, but this conversation is definitely one of my favorite topics!

230: 6 Routines That Help Me Get Intentional at Home

Today I’m bringing you my conversation with special guest Myquillyn Smith where she is talking all about simplified home decor. She’s sharing several realistic tips and tricks from her new book ‘House Rules’, such as how to redecorate or reconfigure a room on a budget, adding layers of “coziness”, or the importance of decluttering a space to make it feel more clean and simple. I was so encouraged by her down-to-earth, walk-with-me approach for any woman who feels like they aren’t a “naturally inclined” home decorator. I know you’ll love this episode as much as I did!
