  • Highly recommend

    In a genre that feels pretty saturated with people talking about minimalism, Stephanie really stands a step above. She’s a genuinely great interviewer and manages to cover such a wide range of topics without the conversations becoming repetitive. And you can tell that she genuinely cares about the subject matter and the people she’s talking to which makes the podcast really enjoyable to listen to!

  • Just want the minimalism content

    Not interested in the podcaster’s irrelevant left wing spiels. Disappointing.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Backyard Climate Activism
Q: What is rewilding and why should listeners care?
Rewilding reconnects us to nature as a foundational act; it's about spending time in nature regularly to remember we are part of the web of life, which fuels motivation to act and reduces apathy.
UnSmarting Your Smart Home
Q: What practical steps can parents take to reduce EMF exposure without adding significant stress?
Identify sources with detectors, hardwire where possible, reduce use of wireless devices at night, keep phones away from the body, and consider devices like grounding concepts or EMF shielding with caution, prioritizing sleep and a low-radiation bedroom.
UnSmarting Your Smart Home
Q: How do you see 5G deployment affecting overall exposure, and what regulatory gaps exist?
5G expands the bandwidth and total radiation in environments, and without stronger regulation, cumulative exposure from multiple devices can exceed safety limits; regulatory bodies have not tightened controls, causing ongoing concerns about health effects.
UnSmarting Your Smart Home
Q: Are children more susceptible to electro pollution and environmental toxins in general?
Yes. Children are more susceptible because their bodies are smaller, their tissues are still developing, and radiation penetrates deeper relative to body size, which can lead to greater effects in vital organs; thus, reducing early-life exposure is prudent.
Autopilot Off
Q: How can listeners deal with the fear and cynicism around sustainability and corporate ethics?
Acknowledge hopelessness, but channel it into action by supporting small to medium businesses, researching brands, and starting with one trusted company to champion consistently.
