Summary

Katie Ping of More Of What Matters Blog shares the 4 reasons you're holding onto possessions that don't matter. Episode 1277: The 4 Reasons You're Holding Onto Possessions That Don't Matter by Katie Ping of More Of What Matters Blog Katie Ping is a small-town writer, yogi, and mama who values simplicity.

By her late-20s, she found herself passionless and riddled with anxiety - and she knew she needed a change. Instead of creating a multi-layered plan on how to attain more peace, she started small - with a walking meditation practice. Those 15 minutes of strolling in silence down a tree-lined residential street led her to where she is today - facing her fears of imperfection and doing it anyway.
