Monday Jul 10, 2023
Monday Jul 10, 2023
Discover the root of your clutter problems, avoid overbuying, and let go.
This conversation is a short clip from one of the Millennial Minimalists' most popular episodes to date, episode 158, where Kelly speaks with best-selling author and decluttering expert, Tracy McCubbin, to realize the underlying reasons for the clutter in your life.
In Tracy’s first book, Making Space, Clutter Free: The Last Book on Decluttering You’ll Ever Need, she shares how clutter stems from Emotional Clutter Blocks, which she defines as the mind traps that we can get stuck in when we find it difficult to let go of our things.
And, in her latest writing, Make Space for Happiness: How to Stop Attracting Clutter and Start Magnetizing the Life You Want, Tracy goes a layer deeper by observing our Emotional Clutter Magnets, which she describes as when we buy things in an attempt to fill our emotional needs.
You will be challenged to think about the emotional clutter blocks or magnets in your life so that you can start making space for more happiness.

What is Minimalism? with The Minimalists’ T.K. Coleman
Monday May 29, 2023
Monday May 29, 2023
Kelly speaks with The Minimalists' T.K. Coleman to explore the definition of minimalism and how a minimalist lifestyle plays a role in helping us make sense of our own dreams.
This is a short, yet powerful snippet from Kelly’s longer discussion with T.K. in episode 151 here.
In this snippet, you will be reminded that minimalism is more than about things. This simple way of life also challenges us to let go of the excess in our lives (whether internal or external) and teaches us to make room for more of what matters.
T.K. says quote, “It’s not about how many things you have or how many things you don’t have... it’s about what are you willing to let go of in order to say yes to the life that you really want.”
In this discussion you will be inspired to remove the barriers in your life, such as the excess physical things, time commitments, or mental roadblocks that may be keeping you from living your best life.
Be inspired by T.K.’s great insights on the power of simplicity and intentionality and be motivated to pursue what makes you come alive!
