Hello everybody welcome to the minimalist podcast where we discuss what it means to live a meaningful life with less. My name is Joshua Fields-Milburn.

Now, I'm not sure how you found our podcast. Maybe you've been reading our blog since we started the minimalist back in 2010.

Or maybe you saw one of our Netflix films,

or read one of our books, or maybe your sister or mother or friend told you about our show.

No matter how you got here, here we are.

You're trying to listen to an old episode of the Minimalist Podcast. But wait, we don't think that's the best place to start.

Our show has morphed and improved since we began recording this podcast in a tiny conference room at the University of Montana way back in 2015.

Since then we've moved our studio and our team to Los Angeles to focus on creating podcasts and films that help people heal

their relationship with stuff.

Over the years we've formed a deeper understanding of minimalism, letting go, simplicity,

decluttering, hoarding, and the benefits of living with less.

And as our podcast surpassed its first 100 million downloads,

our message has expanded too. We even added a couple new co-hosts recently.

So instead of listening to the We even added a couple new co-hosts recently.

So instead of listening to the episode that you just clicked on,

we recommend starting with a newer episode

and working backward from there.

That's why the 50 most recent episodes will always be available for free on this public feed.

Then if you want to dive deep into vintage episodes of the minimalist podcast, you can find all of our

archives all the way back to episode one on the minimalistimalists Private Podcast.
