Unstuffed

If you have ever struggled with PMS symptoms, getting through your period or understanding your crazy hormones, this is an episode for you! Believe it or not, I'm now officially in support of buying yourself a new pair of sweatpants and doubling up on your favorite pair of jeans all in honor of your body. This episode gives you an amazing in-depth listen to 2 women having some real talk around body changes, honoring our health and embracing our periods! Yup, I said it. It is time to stop shying away from the cycle talk and period panties and dive into the changes we can make to embrace these phases we experience as women.

As we go into Thanksgiving break, I think it's important that we work to practice gratitude...but...there are some things we can get wrong when it comes to being thankful (I know I got it wrong at least). In today's episode I want to share with you little ways you can practice gratitude as a beginner, how it can make your bad days better, and how to avoid falling into gaslight gratitude.

We might start a minimalist lifestyle with good intentions about decluttering and simplifying our lives, but if we're not careful the trend of minimalism can sneak up on us. When I first started decluttering, I was using minimalism as a trend and it made my life way more stressful. Here are 6 signs you might be doing the same and how you can snap out of it.

Even if you're not a minimalist mommy blogger like I once was, I wanted to share with you how I turned my blog into a globally recognized personal brand. I mean, how do you get paid, or build a business when you are telling people to downsize, declutter, and stop shopping? The key, I have found, is to owning your story and sharing it with enthusiasm with those who want to hear it. You too have a story and a message, and my hope is that today's episode encourages you to own your story and take uncomfortable steps toward making your dreams happen.

In honor of Halloween, I wanted to share 3 scary things that made me a minimalist -- but they're probably not what you're thinking. OK, they are definitely not what you're thinking. The truth is, a lot of us will go through similar experiences and we have the opportunity to take away lessons of growth or lessons of fear. I chose growth whenever possible. Here is how some of the biggest losses and hardships in my life inspired me to declutter, simplify and practice a minimalist lifestyle.

Most of us know the basic ways to declutter. We know how to get clutter out of our house...we jus get rid of it. But, if the method itself is so simple, why are so many of us still drowning in clutter? I think it's because we haven't learned how to let s**t go. What is the difference between decluttering and letting s**t go? That's what I want to dive into today with you. I want to give you a new perspective on what owning stuff vs. being owned by stuff looks like so you can speed up the decluttering process in a whole new way.

Have you ever had one of those AHA moments where you realized you can't live up to someone else's expectations? Today Amy Green Smith and I have a very real chat about the vulnerability it takes to show up as our authentic selves, even if the people we love don't approve, why people pleasing can be a great tactic for survival, and how to set boundaries with love (and less screaming).

"I don't care what other people think about me!" This is usually something we hear from people and we assume it means they don't care when someone doesn't like them. Right? Well, what about when people really like you? What about compliments and words of kindness? Should we stop caring about those too? I have, and I thought maybe we could have an honest discussion today about why.
