Kathleen Paley (The Reframe Podcast) Power of Minimalism & The Path to Early Retirement

In this candid conversation, Kathleen Paley (The Reframe) shares how values-based minimalism and financial independence helped her buy back your time strategy—cutting Target runs, auditing family schedules, and even reducing TV nights. She explains how she learned to set boundaries in big law, negotiated a two-day workweek, and chose a staggered FIRE early retirement with her husband, reframing money from buying things to buying time, plus practical health tactics like a treadmill desk and standing during month-long trials. Listeners get actionable ideas on consumption “use-it-up” challenges, points-and-miles travel, and community volunteering that turns reclaimed hours into purpose.Find Kathleen:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reframe/id1755909152Spotify Podcasts: https://open.spotify.com/show/1Mu7Rzh2vnVTpbGO7qixG6?si=1a2724fbdca24434 Substack: https://thereframepodcast.substack.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathleen_the_reframe_podcast/
