Millennial Minimalists

What does minimalist living really look like in everyday life?

In this episode, Kelly is joined by Diane Boden, host of the ⁠Minimalist Moms Podcast⁠, for a casual and honest conversation about all things minimalist living. Kelly and Diane share many of the same values around living with less and with greater intention, while bringing different perspectives to the conversation: Diane as a minimalist mom and Kelly as a non-mom, for now.

Together, they reflect on when they first embraced minimalism, what they immediately gained by letting go and simplifying, and how the benefits of living with less have continued to evolve through different seasons of life.

You will learn:

How Kelly and Diane personally define minimalist living

What they gained when they first started living with less

Simple habits that help them feel grounded, calm, and clear

The perfectly imperfect side of minimalism and where they
sometimes get it wrong

Morning and evening routines that create more calm

Lessons that have stayed with them from some of their
favourite podcast guests

Their favourite quotes and words of wisdom around living
with less and with greater intention

Kelly and Diane also reflect on why minimalism isn’t about getting everything right. Instead, it can give us greater awareness of what adds value to our lives, what may be creating unnecessary excess, and where we want to direct more of our time, energy, and attention.

Be inspired to embrace imperfect minimalism, live with greater intention, and make more room for what matters most.

What happens when our digital spaces feel almost endless, making it easy to keep accumulating without ever stopping to ask what we actually need?

In this episode, Kelly is joined by digital organization expert and tech and productivity coach Amanda Jefferson to explore how we can simplify our digital lives and create a healthier relationship with technology.

Amanda breaks down the Big Four categories of digital clutter: emails, files,
passwords and photos, and shares practical strategies to better
manage each one. You’ll learn how to organize desktop files, declutter the
photos on your phone, make better use of cloud storage and password managers, and discover helpful apps, shortcuts and everyday systems that can make your digital life easier to maintain.

Kelly and Amanda also discuss how digital clutter can impact our well-being and productivity, why decluttering what we already have can be more helpful than simply buying more storage, and how to make technology work for you rather than against you.

Be inspired to tackle your digital clutter and create a more organized and intentional digital life.
