By fostering self-reliance and internal contentment, we can enjoy life's offerings without becoming dependent on them, creating a richer, more intentional existence. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://exilelifestyle.com/valuable & http://exilelifestyle.com/live Quotes to ponder: "Most ideally, the things we own are mere additions to a fulfilled existence." "Will I feel better knowing this money is there, in the bank, available at need in the future, or will I feel better knowing I've spent it, the money lost to me forever, on this thing?" "If you can find your happiness internally, your satisfaction with life derived from how you experience the world, not in the experiences themselves, then your quality of life is determined by you, not some external factor."

In this second half of last week's discussion, Kelly and Lauren open up about the messy, real side of living a minimalist lifestyle. You will continue to be reminded that living a Minimalist lifestyle is about surrounding yourself with what you need and love and letting go of the rest. And since excess will always come and go, this lifestyle requires regular check-ins and mistakes are part of the process. Kelly and Lauren answer the following questions:  What area(s) of your life still feels cluttered? Or, what area of your life feels challenging to maintain at times? What's something you keep more quantities of that you admittedly don't need or love and need to work on letting go of? Can you share a story of how you overpacked on a trip or failed your minimalist ways while travelling? What's one area of clutter are you still working on such as physical clutter, a habit, mindset etc.? What advice would you give to someone who is new to minimalism and is struggling with doing it perfectly?

Men grow up with emotions they can't understand or explain—impatience, anger, frustration, even loneliness or sadness—and because they lack the framework for how to work with these emotions they are ultimately controlled by them. In this episode, John Heinen sits down with T.K. Coleman—top 100 podcaster (The Minimalists) and author of Emotional Clutter—to expose the quiet war within: a spiritual battle fought not with swords, but with unprocessed emotions and buried beliefs. Together they unpack why suppressing emotion doesn't make you strong—it makes you weak and immature. Learn why reclaiming your inner life is essential to leading your outer one. This isn't self-help fluff. It's a battle plan for men who want clarity, freedom, and spiritual firepower in a distracted world. We also discuss our thoughts on Pope Leo XIV.

If you've ever found yourself with a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear—or wondering why your latest haul still leaves you feeling unsatisfied—this episode is for you. This week on the podcast I'm joined by Christina Mychas, a second-time guest on the show and the founder of Minimalist-ish. Christina is a YouTuber, author, wardrobe stylist and pharmacist who specializes in exploring the intersection between intentional living, intentional spending and intentional personal style. In this conversation, Christina and I explore the deeper layers of personal style, spending, and identity with a fresh lens. Together we unpack why a passion for style isn't frivolous or superficial but rather foundational when done with intention. Christina and I cover: Why investing in your style isn't a waste—it's a mirror of who you are becoming How to uncover your personal style without getting swept up in seasonal trends What to consider before adding a new piece to your wardrobe The phases your closet goes through—and how to navigate them without overspending How strategic spending upfront can reduce impulse buys and save you thousands Tips for extending the life, value, and joy of the pieces you already love This episode is a guide for the woman ready to move beyond fast fashion and quick fixes—and into clarity, confidence, and embodied wealth through what she wears.   All of Christina's information can be found in the shownotes below.

Episode 3595: Joshua Becker highlights one transformative habit that requires minimal effort yet delivers maximum impact: watching less television. By cutting back on screen time, we gain more hours for meaningful connection, creativity, and healthier routines, an intentional shift that leads to deeper satisfaction and personal growth. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.becomingminimalist.com/watch-less/ Quotes to ponder: "Life change can be hard - really hard." "Television is a self-propagating habit. It promotes its own self-interests by boldly declaring the Best New Show, Most Watched Network, Can't Miss Episode, or Game of the Year." "Not only are the negative effects of TV detrimental to our lives, the opportunity cost is great."

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?

Minimalism isn't about living in a blank, sterile space — it's about making room for what truly reflects you. It's less about having less, and more about living with intention.

We talk about how to bring order to your space before you style it — and why a home that feels like you doesn't have to feel chaotic.Links Discussed in This Episode |Previous Episode: Making Space for Balance with Whitney English (EP220)Book: The Next Right Thing by Emily FreemanConnect with Whitney:WebsiteInstagramSubstackBook: Organize First, Decorate SecondAbout Whitney|Whitney English believes in living a beautiful, intentional life — one rooted in gratitude, creativity, and growth.

What if our system was built to support moms just as much as their babies? In this episode, I sit down with Lauren Scocozza, VP of Product at Willow, to unpack how the company is reimagining motherhood—starting with the hidden weight moms carry every day. From the mental load of breastfeeding to the link between nursing stress and postpartum depression, we explore how Willow is putting moms first through innovative products, mental health support, and bold policy advocacy. If you're ready to hear what true maternal support can look like, this conversation is for you.Note: Willow is launching its Mother's Day campaign on 4/22, committing to provide 1 million hours of maternal mental health support to new mothers nationwide. Partnering with Canopie, a preventive maternal health care platform, Willow will offer free, personalized, virtual mental health services to help mothers thrive during their postpartum journey. The services include cognitive behavioral assessments, on-demand programs, and clinician-led virtual classes. This initiative comes in response to the fact that one in five women experience Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs), yet only 15% receive proper treatment. Willow's partnership aims to ensure that mothers can access the support they need, with Canopie's program boasting proven success in improving emotional health for its users.Links Discussed in This Episode |Connect with Willow:WebsiteEpisode Sponsors |Clear Intentions would not be possible without the support of weekly sponsors.
