    **********************

    With conversations about mental health on the rise, it’s incredibly important that we start helping our children learn how to recognize their emotions early in life.

    In fact, according to the National Institutes of Health, nearly 1 in 3 of all adolescents ages 13 to 18 will experience an anxiety disorder. That number is just staggering, and the trend has been on the rise for a while, so it’s up to us parents to give our children - and ourselves the tools to help us cope.

    That’s why I am thrilled to have my two guests on the podcast this week - that’s right…not just one expert, but TWO!

    Lynn McLaughlin is a proud mother of three adult children. Professionally, she served on three different school boards as a Superintendent of Education, Principal, Vice-Principal, Teacher, and Educational Consultant.

    In addition to hosting her weekly podcast, Taking the Helm, she is a best-selling author. When she felt called to write a children’s book about overcoming anxiety and other big emotions she reached out to her niece, Amber for her subject matter expertise.

    Amber Raymond is a Master's level Social Worker specializing in self-awareness and self-development. She is an advocate for non-conventional, evidence-based coping strategies and identifies as a loving and committed mother and friend.

    Amber is passionate about child mental health, lifelong self-care practices, self-exploration, self-love, and wellbeing and she is always on the lookout for new ways to learn and grow.

    Although it’s a heavy topic, Lynn and Amber have created a fun way to teach your littlest ones (and even our not so little ones) about our biggest emotions.

    It feels especially relevant right now with back to school around the corner and I know in our home that can be a time of mixed emotions so this has definitely helped.

    This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:

    • What emotional literacy means when it comes to children
    • How we can help our children recognize their emotions
    • Advice for when we lose our tempers
    • The ways we can manage emotions
    • A playful way to talk to your children about how they feel

      **********************

      Are you ready for back to school yet? Sorry if I made you panic a little bit.

      Most families still have a few weeks of summer left before school starts, but one thing holds true…back to school shopping has been slowly creeping up and families are spending more and more each year.

      Did you know that U.S. families will spend upwards of 110.8 billion - yep billion with a B - on expenses related to back-to-school and college expenses? That’s a lot of money!

      The good news is that you can jump right off that hamster wheel of back to school craziness whenever you’re ready.

      As wannabe minimalists, we’ve gotten back-to-school down to a reasonable event. We participate in some of the traditional rituals - like some new clothes - but opt-out of others like getting new everything.

      It’s helped so much in not only keeping the clutter in our home down, but also helping us to be intentional and cut back on the spectacle of it all. And so that's why I want to bring you the 7 tips that have helped us the most in getting ready for back to school time in this week’s episode of the Wannabe Minimalist show.

      This episode will also help you discover:

      • Why a capsule wardrobe makes or breaks our school mornings
      • The #1 zone I recommend you create in your home to help with school stuff
      • What I do instead of buying everything on the school supply list
      • How we practice getting ready for school during the last week of summer
      • The new things we actually buy and the many things we don’t

          Willpower. It feels like this elusive thing that if we just had enough of it we could reach all of our goals and live the life of our dreams. But, is that true?

          Is willpower really the thing you lack or is there something else that can help you achieve more, lose weight, declutter your home, and finally get organized?

          Jenn Trepeck is here to help us explore this question and more.

          Jenn has been described as a "force of nature" in the wellness space and has been recognized as one of Podcast Magazine’s 40 under 40. She is an Optimal Health Coach, Podcaster, and Business Consultant.

          She grew up the skinny one in a family of dieters which was awesome(!) until it went away. And so began her weight management saga. Ultimately though, Jenn learned the nutrition education we’re all supposed to know but no one ever taught us.

          Now Jenn’s on a mission to pay it forward and help people help themselves.

          Based on science, yet keeping it lighthearted, we discuss the reality of living life while still making ourselves and our health a priority.

          This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:

          • The truth behind what willpower really is
          • How we can use willpower effectively
          • Tips for creating an environment for optimal performance
          • Things we should teach our kids about grit and willpower
          • Ways we can apply willpower when it comes to decluttering and organizing

            Did you know that 70% of girls believe that they are not good enough or don’t measure up in some way? That’s a pretty tough statistic to swallow as a mom to a daughter myself.

            But, what if I told you that we can help increase our daughter’s self esteem and confidence with empowering conversations. It’s true and it’s why I reached out to our guest for this week’s podcast episode.

            Dr. Michelle Deering is a Mother Daughter Relationship Personal Trainer who believes that every mother and daughter should have a thriving loving relationship. This refreshing approach has made her a sought-after speaker, online educator, and consultant.

            While Michelle is also a licensed psychologist in NC & NJ and a nationally board-certified sport psychologist, she has served as a Fortune 500 corporate trainer, business school Admissions Officer, and higher education professional. Nowadays you’ll find her speaking at conferences, training for her next Reebok Spartan Sprint Race, and practicing rudiments on her drum kit — all while coaching, serving clients, and recording her hit podcast, Mother Daughter Connections™.

            Your relationships with your children are some of the most important things you’ll ever have in your life so it’s incredibly important we make them the best they can be. And this episode will help you do just that.

            This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:

            • How we can increase our daughter’s confidence and courage
            • What “voice” our daughter needs to succeed
            • 3 things we can do as moms to increase our connections with our daughters
            • The signs to look for when our daughters need more encouragement
            • What your daughter needs to hear so she’ll listen to you

              What if I told you that you can declutter this summer and it doesn’t have to be a huge undertaking? It’s true!

              We all hear about spring cleaning, but summer is a great time to declutter. The weather is nice so you feel more productive. The days are longer so you don't have to be so rushed. And you can get your kids to help without having so many demands on your time like you do throughout the school year.

              But there are easier ways to clear clutter and it all starts with knowing the best items to declutter and the rooms and spaces that are perfect to clear out in the summer.

              To take it up a notch it’s also helpful to prepare for summer fun with some tips and hacks that you can use to keep your home organized (and make it easier to enjoy these long summer days) as the weather heats up.

              This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:

              • The best items to declutter in summer
              • What I give my daughter control over when decluttering
              • Why some areas are better to declutter in the summer
              • A simple trick to getting out the door faster
              • My favorite summer hack for getting our beach (or pool) gear ready

                If you’ve wanted your home to run smoother, make lasting changes in your life, or just get more done - finding the right routine might be the little thing that’s missing.

                Routines and habits are one of the things I resisted in my life for way too long and I am almost embarrassed by how long it took me to figure out that routines are the things that make life easier - not harder or boring.

                However, routines can be tricky to set up and we don't always get it right the first time. But, once you find the right routines for you and your family…they are so worth it!

                My expert guest is Ashley Brown. In addition to being a mom of two, she is the author of the Routine Building Handbook and owner of Routine and Things, which serves to help women get organized and into routine so they enjoy the heck out of life.

                Ashley knows when women feel good, the world is better for it. She’s on a mission to see as many women as possible organize their life one routine at a time!

                This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:

                • How many routines Ashley has in her life (and how many she recommends)
                • What to do when a routine fails
                • Why routines are the safeguard against boredom
                • The steps you can take to start a new routine
                • What to do if you feel too stressed to try a new routine

                  **********************

                  Do you love the idea of decluttering, but have a partner or spouse who is less than enthused at the idea of going through their things and letting go of stuff?

                  If so, you are not alone! In fact, one of the most common questions I receive is how do I get my spouse to declutter with me?

                  This episode is tackling the tried and true tactics and tips that work with getting your partner on board with living with less. It’s not a one-size-fits all approach, nor will the changes be made overnight, but if you are willing to do the work, the results will be amazing.

                  Get ready to look at your home and the things in it with fresh eyes, learn why we see clutter differently, and discover some simple tweaks you can make that will have you breathing a sigh of relief instead of being red in the face.

                  This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:

                  • The 3-step system to helping others declutter
                  • A shift in language that makes a BIG difference
                  • The 2 zones every home needs
                  • Why nagging never works (and what to do instead)
                  • How to look at things through their eyes

                    Do you wish you could get dressed quickly each morning and feel fabulous about what you’re wearing?

                    I hear you! One of the best things I ever did was to create a capsule wardrobe. I love how easily it is to choose an outfit for the day or pack for a trip. It’s amazing to know that I will look and feel great without a lot of extra effort or thought.

                    But…after the last two years, my capsule is feeling frumpy and I no longer feel it’s a perfect match. That's why I am thrilled to have a professional stylist join me on the show.

                    Kim Hancher, has a blog dedicated to teaching women 40+ how to regain their unique style and dress their body type so that they feel confident doing something you have to do every day, get dressed. After 27 years in Sales and Marketing, she decided to turn her lifelong fashion interest into a career and help others learn to love the way they dress.

                    And don't worry if you’re under 40 or don't want to dress like you’re middle-aged, Kim has great tips to help you dress however you like.

                    This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:

                    • What a capsule wardrobe is (and isn’t!)
                    • How you can be a minimalist and still enjoy fashion
                    • Why professionals swear by capsules
                    • What to do if you're in a style funk
                    • How to bring interest to an outfit without buying anything new

                      **********************

                      Need to clear out stuff, but hate the idea of a big, exhausting decluttering session? No worries. I’ve got your back.

                      Decluttering doesn’t have to mean dumping everything out and sorting through it one thing at a time. Instead of feeling like you have to do it all at once, you can be methodical and create a rhythm for going through the things you own.

                      Honestly, no one really wants to look through their old items and feel guilty about tossing stuff. Even as a minimalist, decluttering is a means to an end for me. I love the feeling of a neat tidy space, but sorting, purging, and tossing is tiring.

                      Here’s what I do instead of decluttering to keep my home clean and clutter free.

                      This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:

                      • 3 systems I use to keep clutter under control
                      • How you can stop clutter before it enters your home
                      • What I recommend you have in every major area of your home
                      • My favorite way to get my family to help tidy and clean up
                      • How 5 minutes can make or break your next day
