**********************
Have you been struggling to embrace minimalism or simple living because you’re waiting for your “ah-ha moment”? You know, like the ones you have read on countless blogs about how this great epiphany just hit one day? Or a moment when you just could’t take it anymore?
Well, today’s guest will help you realize that you don’t need to wait for a big life change or a crisis to start your journey to a more intentional life. It’s easy to start living more like a minimalist and you can do it today.
You can start by giving everything you own a home.
That’s exactly what Jenna did. And she knows her stuff. As a mom who always thought she lived tiny (and compared to many of us she does), she realized that her home was still messy because as a self-proclaimed “messy person” she struggled with putting things away.
Giving everything she owns a home changed the way Jenna viewed her stuff, let her declutter things that no longer had a place to go, and enables her, her husband, and 3 kids to live comfortably in about 800 square feet.
Jenna Arvidson gives moms permission to live differently. She teaches how to simplify your home and your day so you have time and space for what matters most.
This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will help you discover:
- what it means to give your items a home
- why it’s incredibly important to give everything you own a home
- how to give your items a place to live
- a new outlook for starting and ending your days that have made a huge impact
- the best minimalism advice Jenna ever received

Each year, the holidays are filled with cheer, coziness, and love. But, for new minimalists - or anyone looking to declutter the abundance of stuff in their homes - the holidays also come with the dread of telling well-meaning family that they do not want many presents.
This can be a tough conversation to have because for some people, giving gifts is the way they communicate love. And because they love you so much, they want to shower you with more gifts, trinkets, toys, and goodies to last you a lifetime.
Unfortunately this can be a major source of frustration for not only the gift receiver as they stress about the perhaps unwanted gifts coming into their home, but also for the gift giver who may feel unappreciated.
Instead of being ungrateful and telling the people in your life that any gifts they give you will be promptly donated (seriously, please do not do that), there are some great ways we can be open an honest with the overly-generous people in our lives without hurting their feelings.
This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will also help you discover:
- The importance of sharing why you want fewer physical presents
- 3 strategies for talking to a well-meaning gift giver
- A subtle but important mind shift that will help you at the holidays
- The 5 love languages - not all have to do with giving things
- One thing you can do to cut back on clutter at the holidays

Decluttering Hack: Why Fresh Starts Work and How to Use Them to Your Advantage
Wannabe Clutter Free | Declutter, Organize, Calm the Chaos
07/26/23 • 43 min
Links in this episode (might contain affiliate links):
If you struggle with decluttering and organizing, the thing you just might need is a fresh start.
A fresh start is any milestone or significant event that marks a new beginning or a potential change in your life.
Why are these fresh start dates so powerful for decluttering? Well, they give us a chance to reflect on where we are and where we want to be.
They act as a natural reset button, encouraging us to let go of things that we may not have even noticed and make room for space to breathe. Itâs not about getting rid of stuff for the sake of making room for the newest trends. Itâs about creating space for the person you want to be, the home you want to create, and the life you want to be living.
Fresh starts allow us to let go of the shackles of the past and move forward (maybe not confidently), but bravely.
Plus, when you're a busy parent, having a decluttered home can make a world of difference in reducing stress and creating a more peaceful environment for you and your family so itâs worth giving fresh starts a try.
This episode of the Wannabe Clutter Free podcast will help you discover:
- 5+ fresh start dates that can improve your decluttering
- How to avoid the pitfalls of starting fresh
- The difference between calendar and event-based fresh start dates
- Why fresh start dates work well for kids
- Tips for handling unexpected fresh starts
