Podcast:Paring Down: Realistic minimalism, decluttering, & intentional living Published On: Tue Oct 31 2023 Description: The holidays are upon us! And that means an influx of stuff, traditions, and events. Oftentimes, we end up just wanting to "get through the holidays" because it's all so overwhelming. In this episode, Shannon brings on small-space interior designer Karla Graves to talk about living intentionally with less, and how to prepare our homes, our kids, and our hearts for a less daunting holiday season. From what to put in stockings and boundaries surrounding gifts, to resisting the urge to follow every little tradition we see other families doing, this conversation is for anyone who wants the holiday magic without the holiday fuss.
