This Week's Sponsor: Tiny House Engage

Calling all future tiny house dwellers! I want to tell you about something that I created a few years ago that is the secret sauce for so many of my readers and listeners to get the motivation and the support they need to follow through on their tiny house dreams. It's an online community that I created called Tiny House Engage and it's like a small private social network with just tiny house enthusiasts. We have members of all stages in their tiny house journeys sharing advice and experiences. It’s a very unique online space that I love to hang out in. If you’re truly hoping, currently planning, building, or currently living in a tiny house, I know that you’re going to love Tiny House Engage and look forward to meeting you in there.
