Today we are so excited to share our guest Catherine Greer with you Catherine is a writer and blogger living in Australia. She writes novels about power, desire, jealousy and redemption. She writes picture books about optimism, resilience and flow. And she shares about life in her Happiness Blog. We wanted Catherine to come on the show today to talk about kids and flow as well as to share her thoughts on intentional living. We think you’re going to love our conversation.
Today have another kid-centered episode around the topic of Flow. After Heather’s interview on the Lively Show, the questions started pouring in around how you guys can start implementing the idea of flow and emotional frequency with your kids. While aren’t child psychologists, we certainly can and will be open books when it comes to our experiments in all things flow, including our experiments, challenges, and joys in parenting.
Today we are serving up a fresh episode that centers around Kids and Minimalism. We get a lot of questions these days and so many of them center around kids. Although we did a kid focused episode last year, we are coming at you today with some fresh new idea, experiences and content all around the challenge and joys of having kids while being a minimalist or, at least “minimalist-ish.”
Today we are chatting with Erin Loechner! Erin has been writing and speaking for over a decade and her work has been featured places like HGTV.com, The Huffington Post and The New York Times. Although she has done some BIG things, she very intentionally chooses slow living in a Midwestern town with her husband and kids. Our eagerness to share her with you guys can be summed up in her description of her life on her blog: “Erin strives for less in most areas except three: joy, grace, and goat cheese.”
Today we are we are talking about a topic we think a lot of self proclaimed minimalist struggle with at times. And that is the question, when is minimalism harmful vs. helpful? Do you ever find yourself struggling to be the "perfect" minimalist? Do you ever feel like minimalism is oppressive? Do you ever find yourself struggling with minimalism and wonder what you're even doing anymore? If you answers yes to any of these questions, today's episode with you. We are talking about all this and more on today's show.
