052: The Case for a Smaller Wardrobe

2018-12-23 Mama Minimalist

Have you ever stood in front of your closet, hands on hips, furrowed brow, wondering How. On. Earth. you have a closet full of stuff yet nothing to wear?

Me too.

The answer to this all-to-common conundrum doesn’t lie in purchasing more clothes. In fact, this week’s guest advocates for owning a *smaller* wardrobe.

My guest this week is Julia Mooney. She has garnered national attention for wearing the same gray dress for 69 consecutive work days (+ counting!).

Julia imagines a world in which we are defined by our characters, not by our clothes. Even better? She believes smaller wardrobes are the answer.

Enjoy!

Labors Of Love

Last year was the hottest year on record, so it's safe to say that Earth Day as we traditionally celebrate isn't working.

On today's show I suggest what I believe is the antidote to the climate crisis (and I'm willing to bet you won't be able to guess what it is!).

Here's a preview:

[3:45] The Big 5: We know what we should do environment-wise, so why aren't we doing it?

[7:15] Communal care is anti-capitalist, and that's really darn important

[16:30] Here's what research finds re: the relationship between collectivist culture and pro-environmental behaviors

[24:00] If the problem is disconnection, is the solution as simple as authentic reconnection?

[34:00] It's actually not hard at all to pivot from the conventional, negative feedback loop we find ourselves currently in
