Submit ReviewThrive by living with less. Minimalism is more of a way of life than a goal to be reached. We need little reminders to help keep perspective and focus on what’s important to us. The Minimalist Moms podcast helps you aspire toward minimalism and simplify your life and home. Join host, Diane Boden, as she talks to a variety of expert guests covering all things minimalism, intentionality and simple living.

Submit ReviewAs parents, we all know how quickly our children outgrow their clothes, and how tempting it can be to simply throw them away and buy new ones. But with the life cycle of kids' clothes being much shorter compared to adult garments, this can lead to a significant amount of waste. In 2018, the EPA reported, 17 million tons of textile waste ended up in landfills, compared to the 2.5 million tons that were recycled, it's clear that their work is more important than ever. That's where small business (and my guests today), Hand Me Up comes in! Hand Me Up's mission is to promote a circular approach focused on reuse and repair, which is key to extending the life of textiles. Join me for this interview with founders, Kara and Nicole to learn more about their inspiration, mission, and impact.

Listening. It is one of the chief skills parents need with children. From paying attention to children to listening to teachers and doctors, much of being a parent consists of listening. Yet most parents only listen to about 3% of what is said. This means we often don’t hear important information relayed to us. Why is this? Why is listening so important to parenting? How can you improve your listening skills?
Here today to discuss all of these topics and more is Christine Miles - author of the award winning and critically acclaimed book, What Is It Costing You Not To Listen?. Miles is known as ‘the listening guru’ and will discuss how critical that listening is to be a parent and shares tips on how to improve your listening skills.

Have you ever observed the significant impact that can result from performing small, routine tasks, often referred to as rituals? Such rituals, including keeping a journal, drinking tea, lighting candles, taking daily walks, or choosing stairs over elevators, may have a profound effect on one's physical and mental well-being over time. Tamara Castelo, CEO of Tâmara Castelo Clinic in Portugal, believes that solutions exist for every problem, but people often struggle to access them due to a lack of direction and over-stimulation. Today, she joins us to discuss her new book, The Power of Rituals, and addresses questions such as the most effective simple rituals to reduce daily stress, the significance of daily rituals, the importance of physical touch, the benefits of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and more...

In this episode, I delve into the topic of slow and simple living with my guest, Jillian Hankins. My conversation with Jillian felt like catching up with an old friend. We spoke for over ninety minutes. In the first half, we explored the significance of slowing down, even when it's challenging to quiet our inner to-do lists. We also discussed the common tendency to claim we live slowly while still getting swept up in the culture of busyness. The second half (that will air on Friday) focuses on Jillian’s passion to live according to natures rhythms/seasons. To live seasonally is more than what we eat, but reaches down into the very marrow of our days, how we move through the hours that we've been given with our families!
