    Essential: Curb Impulse Spending with Anthony Ongaro

    If you often find yourself making purchases you don’t need or mindlessly clicking that BUY NOW button, this conversation is for you! This is a snippet from episode 142, titled Break Impulse Spending & Own Your Attention where Kelly speaks with bestselling author, speaker, and filmmaker Anthony Ongaro to help you curb impulsive spending and develop more intentional buying habits. Anthony defines 'the twitch' as the impulse to escape discomfort through distraction and he opens up about his own struggles with this pattern and how it led to years of overspending on Amazon. You will learn about the tools that helped him take back control: from no-buy challenges and strategic decluttering to creating friction between himself and online temptations. Plus, this conversation will encourage you to reflect on your own relationship with spending, recognize any emotional triggers behind your purchases, and learn how to sit with discomfort in order to create more meaningful habits. Get ready to rethink your consumption patterns and become more intentional with your money, time, and attention!

    Part 2: Perfectly Imperfect Minimalism

    In this second half of last week’s discussion, Kelly and Lauren open up about the messy, real side of living a minimalist lifestyle. You will continue to be reminded that living a Minimalist lifestyle is about surrounding yourself with what you need and love and letting go of the rest. And since excess will always come and go, this lifestyle requires regular check-ins and mistakes are part of the process. Kelly and Lauren answer the following questions:  What area(s) of your life still feels cluttered? Or, what area of your life feels challenging to maintain at times? What’s something you keep more quantities of that you admittedly don’t need or love and need to work on letting go of? Can you share a story of how you overpacked on a trip or failed your minimalist ways while travelling? What’s one area of clutter are you still working on such as physical clutter, a habit, mindset etc.? What advice would you give to someone who is new to minimalism and is struggling with doing it perfectly?

    Part 1: Perfectly Imperfect Minimalism

    Be inspired to embrace minimalism as an ongoing, perfectly imperfect practice! In this first part of a two-part discussion, Kelly and Lauren open up about the messy, real side of living a minimalist lifestyle. You will be reminded that living a minimalist lifestyle is about surrounding yourself with what you need and love and letting go of the rest, whatever form that clutter takes. And since excess will always come and go, this lifestyle requires regular check-ins, and yes, mistakes happen! Kelly and Lauren each answer the following questions:  Can you share something that you decluttered that you later regretted? Can you share a recent story of an impulse purchase that you regretted and what you learned? What’s one minimalist principle you admittedly haven’t perfectly followed? Has a minimalist lifestyle ever felt unattainable to you? Can you share a moment where you felt like Minimalism didn’t fix everything?

    Essential: Why Busy Isn't Better

    What if everything you believe about busyness and productivity is actually making you less effective and less happy? In this short, powerful episode from our Essential Series, we revisit a standout moment from our conversation with award-winning journalist, speaker, and author Celeste Headlee, based on her bestselling book, Do Nothing: How to Break Away from Overworking, Overdoing, and Underliving. Celeste opens up about her personal experience with burnout and reveals how our culture’s obsession with busyness is holding us back. She challenges the myth that more work equals more success, breaks down the flawed idea that time is money, and explains how multitasking is quietly making us less effective. If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down, this episode is your reminder to rethink your relationship busyness and start making more space for rest, play, and what truly matters.

    Create Your Not-To-Do List

    In this honest and open one-on-one conversation, Kelly and Lauren dive into the transformative power of creating a Not-To-Do List, which they believe is a simple and profound tool to help you clear space for what truly matters. Rather than adding more to your already-packed to-do list, they challenge you to flip the script and examine the habits, obligations, and distractions that may be holding you back. You'll discover how purposeful subtraction can be just as powerful, if not more so, than constantly striving for more. This episode will leave you feeling lighter, more focused, and inspired to move through your days with greater clarity and intention. Download K&L’s Free Skincare & Makeup E-Guides!
