  • Intentional Ways to Make Money at Home with Jenna Griffith (EP344)
    Jul 9 2024
    Choosing to be a stay-at-home mom often entails significant sacrifices, particularly when it means transitioning to a single-income household. For some, this decision aligns with long-standing plans and financial preparations. For others, it may come unexpectedly, driven by a deep desire for more time with their children, prompting a search for ways to supplement lost income. Regardless of where one stands on this spectrum, today my guest, Jenna Griffith (host of the Joy-Filled podcast) and I aim to share ideas on generating income from home without the need to develop a personal brand, pursue influencer status, or engage in social selling. These alternatives offer viable paths beyond the commonly touted options, providing flexibility and financial independence suited to varying family needs and preferences. ------------------------------- Links Discussed in This Episode | Order a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with Simplicity Diane's Resource: Jay Shetty - Skinny Confidental Podcast Can't Stop Talking About: Olive Tree People (This was the brand Jenna mentioned at the end!

  • [REPLAY] EP227: Mimetic Desire in Everyday Life with Luke Burgis
    Jun 27 2024
    A lot of my current listeners may have missed this previous episode with guest, Luke Burgis (and even if you did hear the original, it’s a great one to re-listen to as you understand how mimetic desire may appear in your life!) Once you learn about mimetic desire, you realize how much it has impacted your life, how much it is all around us and how to begin to set yourself apart... Mimetic desire — the act of desiring simply what others desire – imitating what others want instead of developing our own intentional, conscious wanting – is powerful in our development, our world and in our everyday lives. Today’s guest, author Luke Burgis, shares his expertise about this concept, how society influences mimetic desire, how we can determine what we truly desire, the impact we can have on the desires of those around us and more! ------------------------------- Links Discussed in This Episode Order a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with Simplicity Resource: Motivational Code Connect with Luke: Website Instagram Substack Book: Wanting: The Power of Mimetic Desire Episode Sponsors | The Minimalist Moms Podcast would not be possible without the support of weekly sponsors.

    Jun 18 2024
    Are you looking to make changes or improvements in your health? There may be areas in your life that you don't even realize contribute to feeling groggy or 'off' when it comes to your holistic wellbeing. It is my hope that this conversation with double board-certified physician, Shanika Esparaz, will provide clarity and answers. We dive into the importance of holistic treatment and lifestyle medicine, focusing on six pillars: whole food nutrition, physical activity, restorative sleep, positive social connection, stress management, and avoidance of risky behaviors. Even if you're familiar with the affect of these six pillars on your life, I guarantee you'll walk away from this episode with one piece of advice you've yet to implement! ------------------------------- Links Discussed in This Episode Order a Copy of Minimalist Moms: Living and Parenting with Simplicity Diane's Resource: Download the guide.
