Episode 3571: Joshua Fields Millburn shares a deeply personal journey of loss, self-discovery, and radical transformation, sparked by one simple tweet. As grief dismantled his old life, he found purpose and freedom through minimalism, proving how a single moment can reshape everything and lead to a more intentional, meaningful path. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://www.theminimalists.com/tweet Quotes to ponder: "A month after she passed, my marriage ended abruptly, and I didn’t know which way was up anymore." "When I heard him talk about his newfound freedom, how minimalism allowed him to focus on the most important things in his life, I immediately said, 'I’m in.'" "Most important, Ryan and I have been able to contribute beyond ourselves: minimalism has allowed us to shed the excess so we can live intentionally and contribute to others in a meaningful way."
