Summary

Today I'm in reflection mode because my oldest daughter just turned 7, which also means my husband and I learned about minimalism and decluttered our home for the first time ALMOST 7 years ago. Additionally, I started the podcast right before my daughter turned 1, so Minimal-ish is officially 6 years old! With all of these milestones has come some reflecting- so I'm bringing you 7 big lessons I've learned about both motherhood and minimalism. I love doing episodes like this one, so I hope you enjoy it! At the end, I ask you to send me your favorite thing you've learned about motherhood and/or minimalism. Find me on instagram or via email to do so (hi@desiraeendres.com).

0:00.0	I love fall for so many reasons. I love a fall themed coffee and I really just love sweater weather
0:07.4	because cozying up in a sweatshirt or a really soft sweater is just the best. I've been especially
0:14.1	loving sweaters from quince. Quince is known for their Mongolian cashmere sweaters, which start from $50, and it's not just that.
0:24.2	All quince items are priced 50 to 80% less than similar brands.
0:29.4	That includes beautiful leather jackets, cotton cardigans, soft denim, and so much more.
0:34.5	How are they able to do that?
0:36.2	By partnering directly with top factories and cutting out the cost of the middleman,
0:40.8	which passes the savings on to us. And Quince only works with factories that use safe and ethical and responsible manufacturing practices,
0:50.3	which is really important to me, and I know it's important to so many of you. And of course, they also use premium fabrics and finishes for that luxury feel in every piece.
0:59.6	One of the coziest pieces that I've gotten from Quince this fall is the organic heavyweight fleece cropped half-zip hoodie.
1:07.0	I know that's a mouthful, but this hoodie is so comfortable. I love wearing it for my fall walks.

1:39.3	and 365-day returns. Quince.com slash minimalish. When we are trying to find the right natural products
1:47.9	that work for us, it can make our bathrooms into a clutter zone. I've recently discovered Wild
1:54.4	and not only are their products really effective. They're also helping me ditch some bathroom
1:59.9	clutter, especially single-use plastic.
2:02.9	I switched to Wilde a couple of weeks ago when the natural deodorant that I was using was no longer
2:07.7	cutting it. I had to reapply it too often. What really actually piqued my interest about Wilde was
2:13.4	the refillable aspect. And it has not disappointed their deodorant has really lasted me all day.
