| 0:00.0 | What does it mean to live more with less? I'm Katie Wells and welcome to the Maximized Minimalist |
| 0:07.7 | podcast. If you found yourself caught up in the hamster wheel of modern day motherhood and want to |
| 0:14.1 | rewrite the script, congratulations you're in the right place. I'm here to be your guide and help you take |
| 0:20.6 | back your motherhood and achieve a simpler, |
| 0:23.4 | more joy-filled life. |
| 0:25.3 | Cheers to being a maximized minimalist. |

| 1:36.0 | craving all along. Every single one of us, we innately crave simplicity because our brains are |
| 1:42.4 | wired to crave simplicity in order. Our brains don't like chaos, |
| 1:48.1 | whether that's the foods and things we're consuming that are causing chaos within us or the |
