Simpler Life Vibes

Have you ever convinced yourself that one more thing - the perfect shirt, the right pair of socks - would finally make you feel complete? In this episode, we're diving into the world of "no buy" challenges and what happens when you stop shopping, even just for a little while. I share my own unplanned journey into a clothing no-buy: how a move, a few unpacked boxes, and three months without opening...

Today we’re talking about decision fatigue, endless options, and the very modern struggle of trying to find “the perfect one.” Right now, I’m deep in renovation mode - which means furniture decisions, rug searches, measurements, filters, tabs open in five different countries… the whole thing. And for over a month, I’ve been trying to replace one very ugly dining table. I knew what I wanted and we...

In this episode of Simpler Life Vibes , we’re diving into something that quietly fuels modern consumerism: instant gratification. The fact that we can get almost anything delivered to our doorstep within a day (sometimes hours) has completely rewired how we think about buying, wanting, and waiting. I share my evolving relationship with online shopping, including my late introduction to Amazon, res...

In this episode of Simpler Life Vibes , I’m doing something new… I’m recording this podcast on video for the first time. Is the setup perfect? Absolutely not. Did I decide to do this about 10 minutes before hitting record? Yes. Am I overthinking it while also trying not to? Also yes. But that’s exactly what this episode is about. We’re talking about the fear of how others might perceive you when y...

In this episode of Simpler Life Vibes , we’re talking about a surprisingly triggering topic: email subscriptions. Not decluttering your whole inbox. Not achieving inbox zero perfection. Just the constant stream of emails you never asked for, never read, and somehow still feel weirdly attached to. I share why a cluttered email inbox is just another form of clutter in your life, how subscriptions qu...

In this episode of Simpler Life Vibes , I’m sharing one simple consumption rule that has completely changed how I shop, spend money, and relate to the things I own. After moving into our new home and feeling that familiar urge to buy all the things right now, this rule became more important than ever. When everything feels urgent and necessary, it’s easy to fall into impulse purchases that don’t a...

In this episode of Simpler Life Vibes , I’m answering a question that comes up a lot when it comes to decluttering and minimalism: do I ever miss the things I let go of? After more than a decade of decluttering, donating, and intentionally letting things leave my life, the honest answer is… sometimes. But it’s not quite what you might think. I share a real example of a dress I genuinely loved, why...

In this episode of Simpler Life Vibes , I’m unpacking what I really mean when "I say I’m a minimalist at heart and sometimes in practice too" I’m not an extreme minimalist, and I don’t live with counted number of items or an empty home. But the principles of minimalism have shaped how I think about space, clutter, consumption, and freedom for years. In this episode, I share the habits and practice...
