Basic B*tch Seeks Enlightenment

Having a parent who struggles with an addiction is a challenge in and of itself. Losing that parent is a whole other kind of challenge. Finding a way to learn valuable lessons in order to shape my life in a better direction than my parent’s? Well, that really seemed like the only option. At the end of the day, while it might not be a popular opinion, my dad’s death shaped my life more than anything he ever said or did while he was alive. Whether you’ve lost a parent or not, I encourage you to tune in because you just might start looking at life, and hardships a little differently after this.

Even the most well-meaning people can get caught up in the tangled web of organization and minimalism especially when first getting started. I myself believed every lie Pinterest told me about what my house needed to look like -- and how much time I had available to dedicate to organization. At the end of the day is organizing our entire house even worth it? Hopefully today's episode will offer some insight.

YOLO Living might be an outdated term these days but it is still very much something a lot of us buy into as a good way to live. This podcast is me pleading with you to reconsider! If you are spending each day as if it is your last, you are most definitely more focused on dying than on living. Here is how to flip this around.
