Episode 184 of the Slow Living Podcast
Have you ever felt weighed down by stuff—not just the things you own, but the expectations and layers society places on you? In this episode, we dive deep into how letting go of physical clutter can peel back those layers and bring you closer to what truly matters.
Deanna shares her family’s inspiring story of selling most of what they had to travel the world while working remotely. It wasn’t about the things they left behind—it was about the freedom, growth, and connection they gained along the way.
It’s important to stay on the edge of your comfort zone, getting quiet, and really asking yourself: What do I want from my life? Whether it’s taking a pottery class, imagining a new way of living, or simply slowing down, remind yourself that your life is yours to design.
It’s okay if people don’t understand your choices—what matters is finding what feels authentic to you.
Maybe you aren’t interested in selling everything and hitting the road. That’s okay, not everyone has that dream, and that’s what makes decluttering so fun and inviting. It’s the IDEA that you could — if you weren’t bogged down with stuff, what could you/would you do?
If you’re craving clarity, freedom, and a deeper connection to yourself, this episode will inspire you to start small, stay curious, and dream a little bigger.
If you’ve been here a while, you know that the First Step to Slow Living is to declutter all that isn’t working for you. This is exactly how you get started!!
Tune in and discover how letting go of “stuff” can open up a whole new world of possibility.
