Learning To Love “Just Enough”

Learning To Love “Just Enough”

It’s human nature to pursue more: More stuff. More money. More professional power. While it’s certainly important to both create and reach goals in life, the mindless pursuit of more leaves many of us feeling depleted.

And when we’re always striving to attain the next big thing? We are effectively removing ourselves from the beauty of the present moment.

On today’s show I’m speaking with blogger Tyler Moore about whether it’s possible to be happy with less and, if so, how.

 

Here’s a preview:

[7:45] The relationship between tidying up your stuff and tidying up your priorities

[10:30] Quieting the voice in your head that yearns for more

[16:00] The unexpected benefits of living with just enough

[25:00] First steps for determining what’s just enough for you

Zero-Waste In The Land Of Wasteful Maximalism

Have you ever thought about what your life would be like without a trash can?

Here in the US, we don't think much about what happens to stuff once we're done with it. Indeed, American infrastructure isn't equipped to properly handle waste, and our wonton wastefulness on the cultural level exacerbates the climate crisis.

It's entirely possible to take matters into your own hands by stepping up as a change maker. On today's show activist and author Fredrika Syren suggests tangible ways to treat waste with the reverence it deserves by systematically creating less of it.

 

Here's a preview:

[4:00] Recycling is broken in America, and yet other countries have figured out how to do it right

[17:00] Being a change maker means asking guests to take their trash home with them

[26:30] Exactly how Fredrika saves $18,000 each year thanks to her zero-waste lifestyle

[30:00] Pick a self-sufficient skill and teach yourself! Thoughts on taking your zero-waste efforts up a notch in 2025
