  • To baby or not to baby: The millennial question

    Content warning: This post discusses the decision to have (or not have) a biological child. It also touches on childhood emotional abuse and infertility. Why aren’t millennials having babies? Trick question — they are having babies! Obviously. Most of my friends are around my age and have kids. However, millennials aren’t having as many children, and they’re… Read more

  • My body image boss fight

    Three weeks into my new and improved relationship with food, my resolve was tested. It was the ultimate way for the universe to get right in my face and ask, “Are you sure? Are you sure you love your body right now? You’re not still secretly waiting for a miracle to wake up thinner so… Read more

  • Comfort in my own skin

    Losing weight used to be the most important thing in my life. Year after year, it was my resolution each January. And year after year, despite my weight, I still never felt like I had succeeded. If I gained, I had obviously failed. If I maintained, I had not done enough. If I lost, I… Read more

  • No more food restriction

    I’ve always chased success and compared myself to others based on restriction. I can lose weight if I don’t eat sugar. I can get more done at home if I don’t watch television. I can be more productive if I don’t use social media. The best version of me, the one who weighs 150 pounds… Read more

  • How to Declutter Before a Move

    I found minimalism in times of change in my life. When I was moving into my own place after spending six months living with my parents post-divorce, I looked around and realized I hadn’t touched any of my stuff that had been sitting around in boxes in the basement. So I went through them all… Read more

  • How to Repurpose Old Textiles Into Home Decorations

    Today’s blog is a guest post from Brenda Kimble.  Your old shirts, pants and scarves don’t need to end up in the garbage because of a stain or a rip. If you can’t donate your old items, try upcycling and repurposing them to decorate your house. Or, if you’re lucky enough to find vintage scarves… Read more

  • Put more life into your time

    I planned to get a blog post written earlier in the week, but life happened (as it does) and I was delayed. This year, 2019, I am working on putting more life into my time, rather than lifehacking and multitasking and rushing to get more time into my life. This week, that looked like not… Read more

  • Book Review: The Minimalist Home by Joshua Becker

    Everybody has the aha! moment that starts their journey to minimalism. For me, it was a basement full of stuff at my mom’s house after my first divorce. For some, it’s knowing there’s a pizza cutter somewhere in the kitchen but being absolutely unable to find it in all the chaos. For Joshua Becker, it was when… Read more
