In this chat, we dive into Sarah Horgan's journey toward intentional living and minimalism, which was sparked by her battle with stage four cancer. She talks about how perfectionism and people-pleasing shaped her life, and how mindfulness and emotional health became key in her transformation. Sarah explains how minimalism became a deeply personal journey, not just about physical stuff, but about self-awareness, emotional healing, and simplifying life for more fulfillment. We also discuss her experience with the challenges of motherhood, highlighting the importance of self-forgiveness, the impact of consumerism, and how minimalism plays a role in parenting.Sarah Horgan of Simple + Intentional is a coach, teacher, wife, and mom to a 6-year-old, passionate about living simply. Her journey to simplicity began in 2014 when she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, which led her to deep self-reflection. Over time, she realized that perfectionism and people-pleasing weren't serving her, sparking a shift toward simplicity. Becoming a mom further pushed her toward minimalism out of necessity, as she navigated the challenges of parenting without family support. By decluttering her home, she found it easier to maintain a calm, organized space, which allowed her to focus on internal growth. Sarah's mission is to help others simplify their lives, let go of unnecessary clutter, and prioritize what truly matters.Guest Links Web: https://www.simpleintentional.com/IG: http://instagram.com/simpleintentional/Chapters00:00 The Journey to Intentional Living08:51 Mindfulness and Emotional Health18:10 The Deeper Meaning of Minimalism23:59 Practical Steps to Declutter and Simplify29:40 Navigating Body Image and Self-Care34:16 The Journey of Self-Forgiveness39:39 Minimalism and Motherhood44:15 Spring Cleaning: A Fresh Start48:29 Rapid Fire Reflections-----------------CONTACT US: sustainthispodcast@gmail.comJOIN OUR PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/SustainThisPodcast SIGNE HANSENYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@UseLess_dkWebsite: https://www.uselesswardrobe.dk/IG: https://www.instagram.com/useless_dk/TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@useless_wardrobeCHRISTINA MYCHASYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@ChristinamychasWebsite: https://www.minimalist-ish.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/christina.mychas/TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@christina.mychasALYSSA BELTEMPOYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlyssaBeltempoWebsite: https://msbeltempo.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/msbeltempo/TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@msbeltempo If you loved this episode please share it on your stories and tag us!

Most self-help advice makes me cringe. Vision boards, “manifesting,” and the whole daily affirmation thing? Yeah, I've always put that in the woo-woo category. But lately, I've been stuck in my head, wrestling with self-doubt, perfectionism, and the classic case of overthinking everything. So I decided to try something that made me deeply uncomfortable: staring at myself in the mirror and saying things like “I am enough.” And no, I didn't spontaneously combust from secondhand embarrassment. In this episode, I test daily affirmations for a week, even the corny ones, and rope my wife into writing a few that are, well, questionable at best.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room).

On this week's show, we welcome back our good friend and Charlotte Magazine back page columnist Jen Tota-McGivney to talk about her new book, Finding Your Walden: How to Strive Less, Simplify More & Embrace What Matters Most. All this & much, much less! Debts No Honest Man Can Pay is a podcast that thinks it's a radio show...because it used to be one. The show started in 2003 at WHFR-FM (Dearborn, MI), moved to WGWG-FM (Boiling Springs, NC) in 2006 & Plaza Midwood Community Radio (Charlotte, NC) in 2012, with a brief pit-stop at WLFM-FM (Appleton, WI) in 2004. It phoenixed into a podcast in 2020, thanks to the fine and fabulously furious folks at NRM Streamcast.

Be inspired to embrace minimalism as an ongoing, perfectly imperfect practice! In this first part of a two-part discussion, Kelly and Lauren open up about the messy, real side of living a minimalist lifestyle. You will be reminded that living a minimalist lifestyle is about surrounding yourself with what you need and love and letting go of the rest, whatever form that clutter takes. And since excess will always come and go, this lifestyle requires regular check-ins, and yes, mistakes happen! Kelly and Lauren each answer the following questions: Can you share something that you decluttered that you later regretted? Can you share a recent story of an impulse purchase that you regretted and what you learned? What's one minimalist principle you admittedly haven't perfectly followed? Has a minimalist lifestyle ever felt unattainable to you? Can you share a moment where you felt like Minimalism didn't fix everything? Twenty Outfit Wardrobe E-Guide (Use MM10 for 10% off!)

Episode 2585: Meg Kelley reflects on how true minimalism isn't about owning less for the sake of aesthetics, but about making space to love more deeply and intentionally. Her story of a spontaneous act of giving becomes a powerful reminder that fulfillment comes not from curating perfection, but from showing up with compassion in our everyday lives. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://nosidebar.com/what-minimalism-means-to-me-more-time-to-love/ Quotes to ponder: "Too many times, I'd done this exact thing: get rid of all the things I no longer thought I needed, and then, right on its heels, I'd buy replacements for half the things I'd donated." "My sense of fulfillment in being a minimalist is never from the clean lines or perfectly curated closet. Instead, my time is spent on love." "If I have the privilege and discernment to get rid of things, I have exactly what it takes to do it." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

If you're like us and using GPT (or Claude, etc) on a daily basis, then you have an AI that is gaining context about you constantly. With that in mind, we decided to ask AI to come up with questions they thought would be compelling for us to answer!In this episode, we have two AI Speakers joining us to ask us questions about our businesses, content creation, and our lives. The AI voices were created using Descript and the questions were created via ChatGPT.We thought this was SUPER interesting and very fun to see what things stood out to the artificial intelligence we spend time interacting with daily.***

What if everything you believe about busyness and productivity is actually making you less effective and less happy? In this short, powerful episode from our Essential Series, we revisit a standout moment from our conversation with award-winning journalist, speaker, and author Celeste Headlee, based on her bestselling book, Do Nothing: How to Break Away from Overworking, Overdoing, and Underliving. Celeste opens up about her personal experience with burnout and reveals how our culture's obsession with busyness is holding us back. She challenges the myth that more work equals more success, breaks down the flawed idea that time is money, and explains how multitasking is quietly making us less effective. If you've ever felt guilty for slowing down, this episode is your reminder to rethink your relationship busyness and start making more space for rest, play, and what truly matters.

Episode 2574: Rachel Jones highlights how a minimalist playroom not only reduces clutter but also boosts children's creativity, attention spans, and emotional wellbeing. Drawing from personal experience and research, she shows that fewer toys lead to more imaginative play, less sibling conflict, and a deeper appreciation for each item they own. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://nourishingminimalism.com/minimalist-playroom-better-kids/ Quotes to ponder: "Every night we would pick-up, tossing toys in the closet and into the toy box so I didn't suffer from a Lego-related accident in the middle of the night." "The quality of the children's play seemed to be better when fewer toys were available." "It was really quite amazing how much time kids can play with one toy and the only difference was removing the 50 other similar toys from their room." Learn more about your ad choices.

I used to be the guy who wore a “HUSTLE” shirt unironically and believed burnout was just part of the process. Fourteen-hour days? Normal. Skipping meals? Efficient. Chasing the next milestone without stopping to ask why? Standard practice. But at some point, the question hit me: What is it all for?

For the British architect John Pawson, minimalism isn't just a design philosophy, but a life philosophy—with his 1996 book, Minimum, serving as a defining jumping-off point. Over the course of more than four decades, Pawson has quietly amassed a global following by distilling spaces, objects, and things down to their most essential. With projects ranging from his career-defining Calvin Klein Collection flagship store on Madison Avenue in New York City, completed in 1995, to a remote monastery complex in the Czech Republic he's been building for Cistercian monks of the Trappist order for more than 25 years; from hotels in Los Angeles, Madrid, and Tel Aviv to London's Design Museum; from private homes in Colorado, Greece, Japan, Sweden, and beyond, to a chair and cookware; from lamps and linens to doorknobs, bowls, to even a steak knife, Pawson's tightly focused yet seemingly boundless practice places him in a category all his own.On the episode—our fourth “site-specific” taping of Time Sensitive, recorded at Pawson's country home in the Cotswolds—he discusses the problems he sees with trying to turn minimalism into a movement; his deep-seated belief in restraint, both in life and in architecture; and his humble, highly refined approach to creating sacred spaces.Special thanks to our Season 11 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:[08:06] Tetsuka House (2005)[08:06] “John Pawson's Approach to Making Life Simpler”[08:06] Shiro Kuramata[08:06] Katsura Imperial Villa[08:06] North York Moors[12:41] “Minimum” (1996)[12:41] Sen no Rikyū[17:35] Calvin Klein Collections Store (1995)[17:35] Ian Schrager[17:35] Paul Goldberger[17:35] Cathay Pacific (1998)[20:59] “Elements of Style” (1959) by William Strunk Jr. and E.B.

Join Adam Barralet, Kyle Perez and Nicholas Pearson in Episode #30 of the Crystal Confab Podcast as they do a deep dive into Jet crystal meanings, including: Working with Jet Crystals during the Full & New Moons Adopting the 'less is more' approach with Jet crystal energy Jet's historical significance, including its connection to queer identities in the ancient world Tune in now for a deeper look at Jet crystal meanings! Podcast Episode Transcript: Crystal Confab Podcast Introduction: Are you just starting with crystals? Or maybe you have a whole collection but aren't sure how to use them? Join four crystal nerds, healers, workers, and lovers for a casual chat about all things crystals. Kyle Perez: Hello, and welcome to another crystal confab. Today, we're staying with another, not necessarily ‘gemstone-gemstone', and I'm joined by Adam and Nicholas, and we're going to dive into Jet. How many of you love a bit of Jet action? Nicholas Pearson: I've grown fond of it over the years. Adam Barralet: Yeah. Me too. I think one of the really interesting things a lot of people find is just tactile-wise, how it feels so different to a crystal. And, you know, one of the problems I think all of us probably get is people sending pictures or trying to identify what this crystal is. And the great thing about when it comes to black crystals, Jet is so much lighter. So if it's a really, really light crystal, then it's going to be really, really easy to go up that Jet type of thing. So that's one thing. But I, you know, I've had experiences and I'll share them later on about just the tactileness of Jet is really, really nice. But, I believe it's been used for a long, long time and has a really great history about it as well. And who better to tell us about the history than Nicholas? Nicholas: Yeah. This is one of those rocks that I think we can trace approximately 30,000 years of human use of. Going back a really long time. In, you know, the earliest instances, people didn't necessarily make the strong geological distinction between Jet and related materials. Kennel coal and lignite and sometimes black shale were treated very similarly. So we kinda have to have a little grace in interpreting the data. But it is a stone that is inherently in between, and I find that really magical. One of the most important sources for Jet in the ancient world was in Whitby and what is now modern day Whitby in Yorkshire. I have a bit of Whitby Jet here from the coast of England, and it is my favorite piece in my collection, of very few pieces of Jet. But I think it is really marvelous to imagine that particularly during the Roman occupation of Britain, this material was traded across thousands upon thousands of miles. We find evidence of Whitby Jet carvings in faraway Switzerland and Germany, as well as in Rome proper. So this was a commodity that was traded for a very long time. In other parts of the world where Jet can be found, we find similarly ancient uses of it. But when this kind of Romano British center production was in full swing about thirty five hundred years ago, Jet seemed to acquire, if we read between the lines, a number of uses that are a little bit weird, a little queer, we might even say. And one of my favorite examples is, the remains of a a skeleton found in a a Roman period burial. The skeleton is officially known as skeleton six five two, because we don't have names and dates and ages for all of these figures. And there are a lot of confusing data points about this. This person was interred with a lot of very lavish expensive funeral goods, including jewelry, but they were buried in the part of the cemetery that you would put people who were on the outskirts, the fringe, the beggars, the thieves. So we have a little bit of contradictory information there. When this area was being excavated for the first time, doing, osteological analysis,
There's a special kind of cringe that comes from looking at photos of yourself at twenty. The weird haircut. The questionable fashion choices. The unshakable belief that you've got life all figured out. In this episode, I unpack the most transformative decade of my life, my twenties.

In this honest and open one-on-one conversation, Kelly and Lauren dive into the transformative power of creating a Not-To-Do List, which they believe is a simple and profound tool to help you clear space for what truly matters. Rather than adding more to your already-packed to-do list, they challenge you to flip the script and examine the habits, obligations, and distractions that may be holding you back. You'll discover how purposeful subtraction can be just as powerful, if not more so, than constantly striving for more.
