Summary

Hey friends! Welcome to Girls Night! So today is a bit of a departure from what I had originally planned. Instead of a new episode, today you’re going to hear an episode that originally aired in 2019. And the reason we’re doing this repeat is because honestly… I need to. We have had a few crazy, CRAZY weeks in our house — traveling, a family wedding, the wonderful people who normally help us take care of the girls have been out of town, and then just when we thought life was about to get back to normal — we all got sick. (Which, if I sound weird, or suddenly start coughing, that’s why!) The fact that we’re all sick has meant lots of time together as a family, which has actually been really sweet. But it’s meant absolutely ZERO time for anything else. Seriously, you should see my inbox, and the piles of laundry in our house. So, while we’re all recovering, and resting, and wading through piles of laundry, and trying to pull ourselves back together, I thought that in the name of simplicity, we should do a repeat episode — especially because it was such a good one. Our guest for this episode, Emily Ley, is a woman I’m constantly learning from. Not only is she the maker of my all-time favorite planner, The Simplified Planner. But she’s an incredible author, podcaster, speaker, entrepreneur, mom (she also has twins!), and in all of those areas of her life, she’s both an incredible teacher and student of what it means to live a simplified life. She also has a gorgeous new kids book coming out here in a few weeks. I just pre-ordered my copy. It’s called You're Always Enough: And More Than I Hoped For and I can’t wait to read it to my girls! In this episode she teaches us how to make our lives more meaningful and less stressful. We’re talking about: What living a simplified life practically looks like How to rework our day-to-day routine and keep ourselves from overcommitting How to prioritize our time so we’re spending less time on things that stress us out and more time with the people we love Practical tips for simplifying our use of social media How to shift our mindset from always wanting more to loving the amazing and beautiful things that we already have And more. I can’t wait for you to hear from her. You ready? Let’s dive in! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
