- Simple and Practical
I love her perspective. While I don’t consider myself a minimalist, I am easily overwhelmed by clutter and she has given so many solutions for my family to use in navigating
and minimize clutter. The biggest thing that has helped overall is her perspective on disassociating guilt with paring down and letting go of the clutter.

I will be a listen... more

Apple Podcasts5EmdelynUnited States17 days ago - Best decluttering podcast out there
Shannon sounds like she’s your best friend just talking to you. See? I even referred to her like she’s an old friend 😂
She not only gives amazing advice which has changed my life, but she does it without judgement and with so much love. I wish she could put out a podcast daily!! In the loneliness of motherhood without a large village she’s been a large part of helping me thrive. I could write an entire essay on why you should listen to this podcast, but we all know people don’t read past the fi... more
