Last year, I started purging with the #KonMari Method just like I did in 2017. This time, nothing sparked joy when I held it, and everything somehow ended up in the donation bin — even things that I’d previously cherished. Naturally, as we grow and change, what sparks joy for us will also change, but, well, I panicked a little. Link in bio for how I decluttered when the KonMari Method didn't work.

Truly, the real show of love is when someone takes the time to choose what you'd really want. It's not about the designated time of year or obligation. And what I really want is no more presents (or maybe just a few more #stickers 😂). Who's with me? If you are, check out the link in my bio for ideas on how to give responsibly to the kids and #minimalist adults in your life.

This weekend, I was mulling over a recurring frustration at my workplace and found myself thinking, “I can’t do this anymore.” In reality, I knew I could and would press on since I'm fortunate to have a job right now...

I wonder what he's dreaming about

When you're trying to recover in bed and your cat has other plans 😹

I'm so confused by this. What month is it?
