Podcasts about Minimalism

What does the Bible have to say about minimalism? Turns out - quite a bit, although it may not seem like it at first glance. Joshua Becker's new book Uncluttered Faith: Own Less, Love, More, and Make an Impact in Your World, is centered around a  bold claim. Minimalism - specifically what Jesus has to say about possessions and money - is God's design for our life.  The book dives into Scripture passages that point to numerous spiritual benefits that you can experience through minimalism, to allow you to reach your full potential and impact in the Kingdom of God. In this episode, Joshua and I talk about: - Why the American Church hasn't focused more on the message of minimalism, specifically when it comes to Jesus' clear teachings on our relationship with money and material possessions - How our fruitfulness has been choked out by consumerism and distraction - How minimalism helps us enjoy the benefits of God's spiritual kingdom Joshua is the founder and editor of Becoming Minimalist, a website dedicated to intentional living that was named by SUCCESS Magazine as one of the top ten personal development websites. He is also the USA Today and WSJ best-selling author of 6 books including The Minimalist Home, The More of Less, and Things That Matter. His new book, Uncluttered Faith, will be released on February 10, 2026.  He is also the Founder of The Hope Effect, a nonprofit organization changing how the world cares for orphans. Currently, he lives in Peoria, AZ with his wife and two teenage children.

The Unexpected Path to Cycling  Nathaniel's journey began on a small family farm in rural Oregon, where he faced significant challenges during his childhood. Struggling with family dynamics and a deep-seated desire for justice, he initially pursued a political career, enrolling in a prestigious liberal arts college. However, disillusionment with the political system led him to drop out and seek a new path. This pivotal moment was the catalyst for his life-changing adventure. After a transformative experience in nature with a friend, Nathaniel found himself on a one-way ticket to Europe with a bicycle, ready to embrace the unknown.Embracing Minimalism and the Vagabond Lifestyle  When Nathaniel and his friend set out on their bikes, they embraced a lifestyle of minimalism and spontaneity. With just a few changes of clothes and a commitment to living without money, they relied on the kindness of strangers. One innovative strategy they employed was the "Magic Note"—a simple piece of paper in various languages asking for food donations. This approach not only provided sustenance but also fostered deep connections with the communities they encountered.Life Lessons on the Road  Cycling through Europe, Nathaniel faced numerous challenges that tested his resilience. The duo often found themselves in unpredictable situations, relying on their instincts and the generosity of others. Nathaniel reflects on a particular mindset that guided their journey: to appreciate every moment as if it were the last while also embracing the wonder of new experiences. This perspective allowed them to engage fully with their surroundings.Wild Encounters and Unexpected Friendships Throughout their travels, Nathaniel experienced both the highs and lows of human interaction. One particularly harrowing experience involved a robbery in London, where a group of street kids took advantage of their hospitality. Despite the danger, Nathaniel managed to stand his ground, which ultimately led to an unexpected bond with another stranger—a former criminal who turned out to be one of the kindest individuals he had ever met. This contrast between danger and kindness underscored a vital life lesson: every experience is an opportunity for growth.Nathaniel Allenby's extraordinary journey is a testament to the power of adventure, resilience, and human connection. His experiences remind us that life is unpredictable, and embracing the unknown can lead to profound personal growth. The key takeaways from Nathaniel's story include the importance of living in the moment, the value of community and kindness, and the realization that every individual we meet has a unique story to tell. Whether through cycling or any other form of travel, Nathaniel's journey inspires us to seek our own adventures and embrace the beauty of life on the road.

"The idea came suddenly one day. I was traveling and had this little Japanese perfume spray in my hand, It's actually aluminum and the inside glass, very little. And I said to myself, that's the concept of bottle I'm going to do. Glass.. Honesty." —Hardy Steinman   We drink water every day, yet most of us never question the container. We accept strange smells, plastic taste, and constant replacement as normal. This conversation challenges that mindset and asks us to slow down and rethink what daily hydration is doing to our bodies and the environment. Listen in as Hardy Steinmann shares the personal journey behind building Okapa, a hydration vessel designed with lab-grade glass, precision engineering, and a belief that fewer, better objects can improve health and reduce waste. Press play to explore a different way of thinking about hydration and long-term wellness: Why hydration quality matters as much as quantity The hidden issues with plastic and standard glass bottles How material porosity affects taste, smell, and bacteria The engineering behind shock absorption and durability Longevity versus throwaway consumer culture Environmental responsibility through better design Why investing in one well-made product changes daily habits   Meet Hardy:  Hardy Steinmann is the founder of Okapa, a company renowned for its innovative and meticulously engineered water bottles designed to promote health, hygiene, and sustainability. With over eight years of research and development and a background that spans leading and rebuilding companies around the world, Hardy is committed to using only the highest-quality materials and advanced engineering techniques. Drawing inspiration from his international experiences—including time spent in Papua New Guinea—he brings a unique perspective to product design, ensuring that Okapa bottles set a new standard for performance, longevity, and environmental responsibility. Hardy's dedication to transparency, consumer education, and less-is-more philosophy positions Okapa as both a leader in its field and a catalyst for positive change in how people approach health and hydration.   Website LinkedIn Instagram TikTok Pinterest   Connect with NextGen Purpose: Website Facebook Instagram LinkedIn YouTube   Episode Highlights: 00:51 The Problem with Traditional Water Bottles: Plastic & Steel Issues 03:00 The Science of Glass: 07:31 Health Impact: Comparing Glass, Plastic, and Hygiene in Hydration 12:00 Iconic Design and the Eight-Material Engineering Challenge 18:02 "Swiss Watch" Precision: Over-Engineering for Perfect Hydration 21:00 Minimalism vs. Consumption: Bottles Built to Last 28:47 Engineering Details: Handle, Materials, and Replacement Parts 31:41 Health Market Potential: From Lab-Grade Glass to Medical Collaboration

It's about time we really talk about beauty tech, what it already looks like in parts of Asia, and what it could become in our homes in the next few years, in ways we probably can't even imagine yet.That's exactly what I explore in this episode with Wanfen Xia, CMO and Managing Director at Ulike Europe.Wanfen brings a clear and grounded perspective on where the beauty-tech sector is heading. We talk about how advanced Asian markets already are, what Europe can learn from them, and how new self-care routines might soon become a natural part of everyday life at home.What I especially appreciated in this conversation is Wanfen's gentle, thoughtful approach, shaped by literature, aesthetics, and a deep understanding to what beauty can mean beyond performance or perfection. It's a reminder that some things are meant to be felt intuitively.If you enjoy this conversation, don't forget to rate and review us on your favorite podcast platform.Read more about the Women Authors of Achievement (WAA) Podcast via waa.berlin/aboutFollow us on Instagram & find us on LinkedInSubscribe to our newsletter via waa.berlin/newsletter ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Minimalism promises peace. Calm. Control. A home that finally feels manageable. But for busy families, minimalism often becomes just another guilt trap. In this first episode of my decluttering series, I explain why minimalism is not the answer to clutter, why homes exist to serve people (not aesthetics), and what homemakers actually need instead.Register for the Free Workshop: Decluttering Made Simple: 3 Surprising Ways to Get Organized WITHOUT Tossing Everything - simplyconvivial.com/declutterWe talk about:    Why minimalism and over-shopping are two sides of the same problem    Why clutter is not a moral failure    What it really means to manage a home well    Why hospitality requires equipment and use    How to think about stuff as a tool, not an enemyDecluttering matters. But it only works when it flows from ownership, competence, and purpose — not shame or image-management. I also share details about my upcoming workshop and what's coming next in this series, including real-life decluttering in my own home.This is episode 1 of a 5-part series on decluttering.Christian homemaking takes deliberate practice, not perfect systems. Every week on Simply Convivial, I share practical mindset shifts and small, steady habits that help you build a home anchored in truth and run with cheerful consistency. If you want less overwhelm, stronger routines, and a more faithful way to manage your day, you're in the right place.

In this episode we discuss Pro Audio Minimalism.In This Episode, We Discuss:Pro audio minimalism focuses on efficiency and workflow.Post-pandemic, many have adapted to home studios.Stripping down gear can lead to better productivity.Quality of work is not determined by the amount of gear.The bell curve illustrates the journey of audio engineers.Social media can exacerbate gear obsession.It's important to focus on skills rather than equipment.Minimalism can reduce stress in the creative process.Finding balance in audio engineering is crucial.Personal interests outside of audio can influence spending. Being debt-free allows for better control over finances.Intentional communication can streamline workflows and reduce confusion.Minimalism in workflow can lead to increased efficiency.Decluttering can help identify unnecessary subscriptions and expenses.Applying minimalism to business practices can enhance focus and productivity.The thrill of the hunt can lead to unnecessary clutter if not managed.Intentional equipment purchases can prevent buyer's remorse.Every purchase has a domino effect on workflow and finances.Embracing whimsy can make minimalism enjoyable and fulfilling.Sharing resources can benefit others and reduce personal clutter.Links and Show Notes:Joe's SiteJoe on WCA #329Matt's Rant: Credits:Guest: Joe CaithnessHost/Engineer/Producer: Matt BoudreauWCA Theme Music: Cliff TruesdellThe Voice: Chuck Smith

This conversation explores the fascinating intersection of math, physics, and art, highlighting how these disciplines inform and inspire one another. Dr. Ronald Gamble discusses his journey as a theoretical physicist and artist, emphasizing the importance of recognizing patterns in nature and the role of creativity in scientific discovery. The dialogue delves into various topics, including the significance of symmetry in physics, the visualization of complex concepts like black holes and gravitational waves, and the influence of mathematical principles on artistic expression. Ultimately, the conversation underscores the idea that art and science are deeply interconnected, each enhancing the understanding and appreciation of the other.Takeaways Inspiration is pattern recognition. Math serves as a language to describe physics. Art and physics both seek to decode patterns in the universe. Studying nature can enhance understanding of physics concepts. Creativity is essential in theoretical physics. Symmetry plays a crucial role in understanding the universe.

Brad Barr is a guitarist, singer, and songwriter, and, along with his brother Andrew, is half of the Americana, folk-rock group the Barr Brothers. The Barr Brothers just released their new album, Let it Hiss, which has a more vulnerable, stripped-down sound that embraces human imperfection and spirit.  Brad and I had a great conversation about songwriting and the production of the Barr Brothers' new album Let it Hiss. Brad shared how a minimalist approach, including a 4-string guitar, helped guide the songwriting and production of the new record. Brad even demonstrated his polyester thread trick on the guitar.

After a few months away, we're back behind the mic with a real-time life and business update. In this episode, we share what the first four months of parenthood have been like, how our parental leave actually played out, and where our work is headed next.We talk about:Life with baby Leon and what surprised us most in the early monthsHow stepping away from WAIM Unlimited and work impacted usWhat's happening with Teachery and why it's entering a new chapterTwo very different paths we're considering for what we build next—and why we're tornWhy clarity still comes from action, not overthinkingThis episode is part catch-up, part behind-the-scenes, and part open-ended invitation to follow along as we figure out what the next iteration of our work looks like in 2026.

Today, we're talking about emotional minimalism—the art of not reacting. Powerful men, the ones I respect, know how to manage their energy and emotions. They respond only when it moves their life forward; everything else is wasted energy. I break down why every reaction is a transaction, why most people leak their power, and how predators and even boxers show us the value of conserving energy. By the end, you'll see why emotional minimalism is about investing your feelings wisely, not just feeling for the sake of feeling. Show Notes: [03:42]#1 Every reaction is a transaction.  [06:07]#2 Stillness speaks louder than words.   [12:19]#3 Emotional control is the foundation of presence.

This past year brought more change than I expected—personally, spiritually, and professionally. As you'll hear in this episode, some of the change distracted me from pursuing a life free from clutter. So I wanted to share: A) A little recap of my year (some analytic numbers, some personal struggles, etc.) and B) What has helped me recalibrate and reconnect with why decluttering matters in the first place.I hope it motivates you to feel excited about embracing a life that rejects materialism, too!

So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more.

Kelly shares her journey from international modeling and the corporate world to building a podcast she's led for seven years, helping listeners simplify not just their physical spaces, but also their mental, emotional, digital, and relational clutter.Together, they unpack why our possessions quietly consume attention, how minimalism challenges us to face ourselves once the noise is gone, and why living with less is not about deprivation—but about alignment with what truly matters. This conversation is a powerful reminder that minimalism is a gateway to better focus, deeper connection, and a life designed around purpose rather than pressure.Website-www.mastersimplicity.com https://www.instagram.com/millennialminimalists/

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://exilelifestyle.com/center-universe/ Quotes to ponder: "Everything in my own immediate experience supports my deep belief that I am the absolute center of the universe,  it's pretty much the same for all of us."
