Ep 073: Less Is More

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you ever feel like your stuff is taking over, the kids lose interest in their toys quickly, or your cabinets and closets are bursting at the seams, perhaps it’s time to own less. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I’m a big believer that having less actually gives you more! When you have less items to clean up, wash, organize, and find a place for, you gain precious time back in your day and physical space to enjoy as well. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You may also find that the value of your stuff goes up when you have less. You appreciate what you have more and this can lead to some lovely mental peace as well. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On this episode I discuss these thoughts further and suggest ways you might consider intentionally choosing to have less, so that you gain so much more in time, space, experiences, and the overall health and well-being of you and your family! </span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Highlights from this episode:</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{2:13} The importance of the essential purge</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{5:00} Clutter takes up physical and mental space</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{8:37} Request gift substitutes on party invites</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{11:00} Make a conscious effort to put things away</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{12:44} Getting organized to make the tidying easier</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{14:24} Stop overpacking your suitcases</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{16:59} When you feel overwhelmed, go back to The 3 E's</span></p> <p><br /> <br /></p> <p><strong>Mentioned on this episode:</strong></p> <p><a href= "https://www.everythingwithstyle.com/post/episode-001-the-3-e-s-philosophy"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Ep 1: The 3 E’s Philosophy</span></a><span style= "font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p><a href= "https://www.everythingwithstyle.com/pos
