Paring Down: Realistic minimalism, decluttering, & intentional living · Mar 26, 2026 · 18m

Here's what you'll find in this week's mini episode, a.k.a. Chai Chat!

I answer:

1. When do you reach decluttered “enough”?

2. How did you get started with writing? What's your favorite childhood movie?

Listener recommendation of the week: ⁠

• Thrive's Market maple syrup (I found out you need a membership, just FYI!)

• Ember heated mug
