  • How To Finally Get Your Life Together
    Jul 24 2025

    Ever feel like everyone else has their life together except you? Well, you’re not alone. In this episode, I break down the seven steps that helped me go from feeling like a hot mess express to, well, slightly less of a mess. No hacks promising to 10x your life overnight, just practical steps, awkward honesty, and a reminder that getting it together is less about buying a $50 water bottle and more about doing the simple stuff that actually works.

  • Why I’ve Been A Minimalist For 5 Years
    Jul 21 2025

    It’s been five years since I first called myself a minimalist. A lot has changed since then: my work, my family, and how I see the world. In this episode, I reflect on why I still choose minimalism, even when life gets messy, why it remains one of the most powerful tools I have to keep things simple, and how one simple question continues to keep me grounded in what matters most.

  • What I Eat Every Week To Train For A Spartan 21k
    Jul 17 2025

    Eating healthy doesn’t have to be complicated. For the past couple of years, I’ve kept my diet simple by cycling through almost the same meals every week. In this episode, I break down what I’m eating right now as I train for my Spartan 21k, why this approach keeps me feeling strong and focused, and how keeping it simple has been the key to building consistency without overthinking every bite.
