031: The Art of Saying ‘No’

031: The Art of Saying ‘No’

On this episode of the Sustainable Minimalists Podcast we outline the nuts and bolts behind intentional living. We offer concrete strategies to confront the status quo, too.

“Live less out of habit + more out of intent.”

If you follow me on social media, you already know this is my personal mantra. I recite it over + over when choices are hard; it’s this mantra we’re discussing today.

My guest today is Jen Panaro. She’s the founder of Honestly Modern, an online brand that focuses on sustainable living for modern families. She’s a mom with a full-time 9 to 5 who has gotten quite skilled at rethinking the status quo, too.

Today we have an open + (very) honest conversation. Jen details strategies to confront our habits + say NO to obligations + YES to intentional living, all with a great, big smile.

Enjoy!
