Your Intentional Life Starts with ‘Why’

Your Intentional Life Starts with ‘Why’

Does the slow living movement intrigue you? If you recently went on a summer vacation you know it’s true: A slow, intentional life feels right.

Yet, despite our best intentions, most of us retreat to our busy habits + our cluttered ways hours after returning home.

The first step to living a more intentional life isn’t Googling a quick fix. Seasoned minimalists know that in order to slow down (for good!) you must first identify why you’re so busy in the first place.

My guest this week is Jennifer Burger. Jennifer describes herself as a recovered shopaholic + workaholic who believes you can’t skirt around the hard, inner work.

On today’s show Jennifer shares her journey toward slow living; she offers 5 real reasons why your life is busy + cluttered, too.

Enjoy!

Beyond the Beige

We’ve all seen the images. The stark white rooms, the single designer chair, the perfectly curated capsule wardrobe. We’re told that if we just clear the clutter, we’ll find peace. 

But if we’re not careful, the minimalist aesthetic can become just another thing to buy, another thing to consume. 

On today’s show, Melora Johnson deconstructs the modern minimalist movement so that each of us can move from the clutter-free, beige-everything  minimalist aesthetic to a deeper, more sustainable practice rooted in intentionality.

Here’s a preview:
