• Nostalgia can be a big stumbling block.
• You need to understand your motivation behind keeping any item.

• Don’t try to play catch-up with your favourite minimalist influencer on Instagram!

Unpeel the Minimalist Onion: My Hot Take

Whew! Who knew simplicity could be so complicated? The funny part is that embracing a minimalist lifestyle starts with asking yourself 11 questions, but ironically, ends up with you practically interrogating your sofa cushion: “Do you spark joy?”

Jokes aside, minimalism is about opening up space for what truly matters. It’s not about empty rooms and barren walls; instead, it’s about removing the things that are unnecessary, insignificant, and simply noise in our lives. And c’mon, who wouldn’t want their life to resemble a chic minimalist Pinterest board, right?

Our homes aren’t auditioning for a starring role on ‘Hoarders’. So folks, let’s take a deep breath, be brave, and get ready to embark on a journey where less is magically more. Peer pressure, be damned. We may not turn into Marie Kondo overnight, but we can certainly take baby steps towards a simpler and more intentional life. And who knows, maybe your minimalist journey might just inspire your clutter-lovin’ neighbour!

Let’s get into it – pull up your minimalist ‘big-girl pants’, shine up your ‘does-this-spark-joy’ sword, and start kicking unnecessary clutter to the curb!
