The simple sophisticate is someone who prefers quality over quantity, sensible living over mindless consumption, personal style instead of trendy fashions, has an insatiable curiosity for life’s endless questions and a desire to live a truly fulfilling life rather than being led around by the nose. Inspired by her lifestyle blog The Simply Luxurious Life, Shannon Ables (the original Simple Sophist... more

This is a lovely show and concept. I do have a suggestion to the host. As a fellow nasal girlie, blowing your nose does wonders for the voice. Some episodes are far more impacted than others, and I have a lot of empathy that it’s something difficult to regulate. Slowing down talking also does wonders for the host’s general cadence. more
Clearly states that her definition of simple does not mean slow, but repeats the same information so many times you would think she views her listeners as being incompetent. I can find my own way of being sophisticated without wasting endless hours listening to this.
Shannon’s philosophy on life is one we can all learn from — cultivating gratitude, elevating the quality of daily moments, keeping an open mind and always learning, and prioritizing contentment. It’s a tonic for the soul, and while I’m living a very different life to her (in my mid-twenties in London), it still resonates with me hugely and offers plenty of comfort and perspective. Listening to Shannon feels like a warm hug!
Ms. Abel’s used to drop French words, now she’s identifying as British. It’s more than noticeable, especially on the blog, when she drops the latest English expression she’s read. Oodles, chuffed, whilst. Even her beloved ‘cuppa’ which confused the actual English woman she recently interviewed. It’s hard to listen to thoughts on contentment and peace from someone who is clearly not content with her real life. The blog used to be so good. I loved the weekly podcasts. Now they are unbearable.
