017: Financial Freedom + Minimalism

017: Financial Freedom + Minimalism

Financial freedom and minimalism with Rose Lounsbury.

“I used to be … a Sport Shopper. I loved to shop for fun. I would just go shopping and there was never really a plan, I would just go shopping and I would buy what was on sale even though I didn’t need it, and I would fill my closet and home with things I didn’t need.”

Sound familiar?

This week, I’m thrilled to introduce you to Rose Lounsbury, a minimalism coach, author + self-described former Sport Shopper. We dive deep into her trademarked decluttering method; we get a little silly, too.

On this episode, we:

– Define the key differences between shopping for fun + shopping for purpose.

– Muse about the evolution of the eco-minimalist movement.

– Detail action-oriented techniques for getting a reluctant spouse + kids on board with minimalism.

Be sure to hang out until the end of the episode for a powerful takeaway: Rose lists 7 key questions to ask yourself before discarding any item (trust me; they’re good!).
