Starting with an identity theft nightmare that also served as a wake-up call in 2015, my family and I have been on an intense mission to simplify our lives.
We sold our home and two acres of land, let go of about 90% of our physical possessions, paid off all our debt, and removed everything on our schedules that were enslaving and overwhelming us. Three years into our minimizing journey, my husband’s job was unexpectedly outsourced, and what followed was a long stretch of multiple medical issues and 21 months of unemployment. These life-altering changes have come together to produce a surprising, yet beautiful shift in paradigm— we now spend most of our time at home.
