Every once in a while a new trend comes along in the minimalism space that shakes things up and makes people re-examine their lives. One of the recent newcomers is the idea of Swedish Death Cleaning. Don’t worry. It’s not as morbid as it sounds.

In fact, it could be one of the best ways for sentimental people to declutter their belongings.

At the heart of the trend is the idea that you want to make life easier for your loved ones when you die instead of leaving them with a house filled with crap that you, yourself didn’t really care about.

It’s also a lovely way to pass on things you love to people you love - as long as they are useful and wanted by the recipient.

Have you ever wondered how some families seem to have life figured out? Their kids follow routines and they have healthy habits established. But, no matter what you try, you just can’t stand the idea of a boring routine?

It turns out, that it doesn’t have to be as complicated or boring as it seems.

Today’s guest describes herself as “a naturally Type B person” who much prefers to fly be the seat of her pants. Once she became a mother, she figured out that wasn’t the best approach, but still struggled and resisted routines.

That was until she discovered Keystone Habits.

Hena is a millennial stay at home mom of two small kiddos and a military wife. On her blog, Mending with Gold, she shares fun, educational ideas plus resources for kids as well as smart parenting tips for raising children.

And if you have struggled with not only creating but making habits stick for your kiddos, Henna has the most adorable calendars on her website - and she is giving you one for free!

Do you struggle with quiet time? Don't worry if you answered yes. This is an area I struggle too.

But, that all changes today. This episode is all about the importance of quiet time, why it is essential to your child’s well-being, and how to implement quiet time in your home without a fight.

Our guest today, shares how she keeps peace and quiet in her home while homeschooling her 5 kids and running a business with her sister. If she can have 2 hours of quiet time everyday in her home, she can show us how to do it too.

Dani Goeppert is a wild and happy mama of five, and married to (as she says) the handsomest of German men. She is originally from Canada but hasn’t lived there in over a decade. After moving to Germany in her early 20s, learning German and having five babies, her family packed up and moved near Kyiv, Ukraine. There they serve together with an international non-profit, and are currently conquering their next language - Russian. She dreams of one day being able to read Dostoevsky in the original.

She is passionate about growing wild happy families, inspiring mamas to step into their callings as co-creators and gives them tools to create more time, boost meaningful productivity and influence their communities with the power of relationships starting at the most important place - home.

And if you struggle with making your home peaceful or being consistent with quiet time, Dani shares all of her tips in her popular Stupid Simple Quiet Time System. I promise, it’s a good one.

Tired of the rat race and working so hard to buy ALL THE THINGS? The answer may be as simple as saying no to shopping.

Our guest today, shares her journey from this exact spot. She was determined to live a better life and back at the beginning of 2017 she chose to define her year with simplicity. She never could have imagined how that goal would change her life. Hint: she started in her closet and it ended with her quitting her job (even though she was the breadwinner for her family!).

Brooke is a simple-living blogger, wife, and mom to two daughters. Her motto to “simplify, find more joy, and be intentional with her time” changed her life for the better. She writes about her experience at HappySimpleMom.com where she helps busy moms reclaim all the joys of their motherhood. Brooke believes by simplifying your life you can experience a home that brings you joy and happiness and stop letting the mess weigh you down.

And if you struggle with keeping your home free from clutter, Brooke shares her wildly popular Flat Surface Clutter Rule. I promise, it’s a good one.

If you are a mom and have wanted to simplify or declutter your home, chances are there is someone in your household that has not been as excited about the process as you are.

Have you been struggling to embrace minimalism or simple living because you’re waiting for your “ah-ha moment”? You know, like the ones you have read on countless blogs about how this great epiphany just hit one day? Or a moment when you just could’t take it anymore?

Well, today’s guest will help you realize that you don’t need to wait for a big life change or a crisis to start your journey to a more intentional life. It’s easy to start living more like a minimalist and you can do it today.

You can start by giving everything you own a home.

That’s exactly what Jenna did. And she knows her stuff. As a mom who always thought she lived tiny (and compared to many of us she does), she realized that her home was still messy because as a self-proclaimed “messy person” she struggled with putting things away.

Giving everything she owns a home changed the way Jenna viewed her stuff, let her declutter things that no longer had a place to go, and enables her, her husband, and 3 kids to live comfortably in about 800 square feet.

Jenna Arvidson gives moms permission to live differently. She teaches how to simplify your home and your day so you have time and space for what matters most.
