Creating a Worldwide Movement Simply By Stepping Outside | Ginny Yurich (EP01)

This week, I am thrilled to bring you bestselling author, Gretchen Rubin. In her latest book,Outer Order, Inner Calm,Gretchen explores the relationship between our physical and mental space: outside order creating an inner calmness. Throughout her career, Gretchen has written on the pursuit of happiness and how one can get there based upon personality traits or just practical tips suited towards their environment. Gretchen’s new book is a wonderful resource for those who aren’t quite sure where to begin but it’s also full of helpful tips I hadn’t ever thought of when decluttering my home. We discuss: How Gretchen discovered outer order contributing to her own inner calm Is the recent interest in decluttering/minimalism just a trend or are people truly catching on to this ‘better way to live’? How personality contributes to our decluttering approach Actionable steps for mothers to keep up with the clutter How to make choices when organizing sentimental items Find all the resources mentioned in this show: Show Notes for EP81: Outer Order, Inner Calm with Gretchen Rubin Let’s keep the conversation going on our Facebook page or Instagram!

This week, I am bringing you my interview with Denaye Barahona. Denaye is host of the Simple Families Podcast and is author of the new book Simple Happy Parenting. Her refreshing approach to minimalism and parenting is professional yet warm. She believes in a holistic approach to helping the whole family; living well through cultivating a healthy relationship with yourself, family and home. I’ve enjoyed listening to her podcast over the last several years and can’t wait to talk with her today about the idea of ‘less-is-more’ when parenting. We discuss: A definition of simple, happy parenting How do we step away from a skittish mindset and move towards a more free, relaxed relationship with our children? Some would argue: “Isn’t our job to protect our children from any difficulties that are in our control?” How would you respond? Is the 'less-is-more' parenting approach only a trend? How we can parent with a ‘less-is-more’ mentality when it comes to: Food/Mealtimes Free play at home Manners Sleep Playground School The Outdoors Find all the resources mentioned in this show: Show Notes for EP80: Less-Is-More Parenting with Denaye Barahona Or, click here to get the show notes emailed to your inbox each week.

In this week’s episode, we’ll discuss how to be purposeful in our seasonal decorating without being a grinch. You know how it goes. The school year has barely begun and retailers are already pushing holiday decor. Mid-October I walked into Costco only to be caught off guard by Christmas trees and twinkle lights. While there’s nothing wrong with crafting a cozy space to enjoy during the holiday, there is also something to be said about intentionality with what we bring into our homes.
