Summary
Continuing our series on social self-care, this time Haley and I talk about stewardship: caring for the things we've been given. What does that look like in real life?
It was commonplace for our grandparents' generation to 'use it up, wear it out, make do, or do without,' as the war slogan reminded them—it was just part of life. But we live in a throwaway culture now.
“Reusing something instead of immediately discarding it, when done for the right reasons, can be an act of love which expresses our own dignity.” - Pope Francis
Haley and I talk about the practicals here, but also why we consider this self-care, and not just good practice for the earth. Basically, we think this is taking care of ourselves, too.

| 0:00.0 | It's a simple show. You've got episode 122. |
| 0:07.0 | Hi, I'm Tishawkson Rider. And I'm Haley Stewart. And on the show, we break down big ideas. |
| 0:13.4 | In this episode, we're continuing a four-part series on social self-care. |
| 0:19.2 | Before we get into that, quick announcement that you guys, the bundle |
| 0:23.4 | sale, the Ultimate Homemakers Bundle that happens every year, starts tomorrow. And I've got |
| 0:30.2 | something in it for you. It is my course called The Essentials. And it is normally $37, I think think right now. I can't even remember how much |
| 0:41.4 | the course is. But the entire bundle is like $29 or something like that. Right, Haley? |
| 0:47.0 | I can't remember. Yeah, I think it's $29.97. I think that's. Okay. So you actually can get this |
| 0:53.8 | whole bundle and get my course for $7 off, |
| 0:56.8 | plus get everything else, including Haley's. You've got a new ebook in this bundle as well. And what's it called again? |
| 1:03.3 | It's called the literary medicine cabinet. Okay. Oh, that's perfect. And we're going to talk about that more in part three. |
| 1:08.2 | It's going to be really good. But guys, if you want to get the bundle, it's only around for a week. And it is super good this year. You know, there's there's so many things in it that sometimes it's a bit overwhelming. Like, I don't need 90% of this stuff. Well, that's true. For me, you know, I don't usually use the majority of the bundle. But even when I use like four or five things, it is worth the price and then some. It's really like the best deal on the internet all year long. |
| 1:32.7 | So go to the art of simple.net slash bundle and I will notify you when it goes live. |
| 1:37.9 | If you're listening to this episode, when it goes out, it'll go live tomorrow morning and I |
| 1:42.7 | will send you an email. And if you order through |
| 1:46.6 | that page, I've got a freebie for you. And it's called Spring Clean, your 2018. It is a new |
| 1:51.7 | thing you cannot find anywhere else from me. It is a six-part audio series on spring cleaning, |
| 1:58.9 | not your physical surroundings, but your inward life. It's a little bit different |
| 2:03.5 | from anything I've created and I've loved it. It's a lot more about saying no to the things |
| 2:10.0 | that you need to say no to, saying yes. And because it's specifically about 2018, I'm going to |
| 2:14.6 | mention things like links to check out resources that you can use right now, |
| 2:19.6 | all in preparation for the upcoming summer, just to kind of give yourself a little checkup. |
