Have you ever bought something you did not need and wondered why you hit checkout?

If you want to spend with more intention and change your habits without overcomplicating it, this episode will help you get started.

In this snippet from episode 236, Kelly is joined by best-selling author and
sustainability expert Ashlee Piper to break down her 30-day No New Things
challenge. It is simple. You stop buying new nonessentials for 30 days and
start paying attention to what is driving your spending. Ashlee originally did this for herself. She went nearly two years buying no new things, saved thousands of dollars, and gained more time, clarity, and energy. Now she teaches others how to do it in a practical, step by step way.

In this conversation, you will learn how the challenge works, why we overbuy in the first place, and what to do when the urge to shop hits. You will also hear sustainable gift giving ideas and how to create a 'non-thing list,' to help you focus your energy away from shopping.

Be inspired to take on the No New Things challenge and build habits that support your goals, your well-being, and the planet.

Did you know that Swedish death cleaning can lighten your home now and make things easier for your loved ones later?

In today’s episode, we’re talking about Swedish death cleaning, a Swedish cultural practice and a practical way to declutter with a bigger purpose in mind. It’s about reducing what you own so your home feels lighter today, and so your family isn’t left with the emotional and logistical burden of sorting through everything later.

To explore it, Kelly is joined by decluttering coach and organizing expert Emily McDermott, host of the Moms Overcoming Overwhelm podcast. Emily helps people reduce overwhelm through simple organizing systems, and she’s practiced Swedish death cleaning firsthand.

Emily shares how she did her own Swedish death cleaning at age 39, why she started, what it looked like, and how it still shapes the way she lives.

If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t want my home to feel like a constant to do list,” or “I don’t want to leave my family a mess to deal with one day,” this episode is for you.

Be inspired to simplify in a way that feels meaningful and freeing now and deeply considerate of the people you love.

In this episode, you’ll take away practical tips either way.
