Ep 061: 10 Ways Minimalism Helps the Super Busy Family

Motherhood is a lot of things, but boring is not one of them. As my kids get older, we get into schooling, and realize the activities that interest them, I find that my life just gets fuller and fuller. I really enjoy having a full schedule. Other than the occasional need for a week off, I truly thrive when my calendar is full and my days are packed with a life lived on purpose. There's a big difference in being too busy and in simply having a full life. Embrace where you're at and if you find yourself overwhelmed, find ways to simplify wherever you can. Minimalism is one way to do this. It kept me afloat and simplified my to do list in a very chaotic, uncontrollable time of my life when babies dictated everything, all the way down to how much sleep I got. No matter how many kids you have and what season of motherhood you're in, minimalism lifts a huge burden you may not even know you've been carrying. It's such a gift and is especially helpful for the family with a full calendar. Everything I talk about in this episode can be found here: http://alliecasazza.com/shownotes/061
