The last thing my children needed was more toys, more stuff.
I believe mothers need minimalism more than anyone else.
You can live in a tiny home and enjoy the perks without sacrificing your love of beauty and style.
We have plenty of technology in our house. We’ve just added boundaries.
Every weekend we are handed an opportunity to vacate from our regular routines, give our minds a break and slow down.
Reevaluate, make changes and simplify.
Saying “no” doesn’t mean being a jerk. It means respecting your + others’ time.
Don’t stay stuck where you’re at. There’s not a single admirable person in history who lived that way, and it’s not good enough for you.
If you show it’s important to you, it will become important to them.
Find ways to say yes. Answer questions eagerly. Have fun.
You can do it! (And you’ll be really glad you did.)
In this full life, I choose to be very careful with what takes up my time.
