So kudos to you for wanting to try and turn that daydream into a reality. Let’s be honest: as a family, you face even more challenges in becoming minimalist. While I love this new trend toward a simpler life, so much minimalism content is directed at those who are single or don’t have children. When I thought about the life I wanted us to lead as a family, I knew that it was time to turn things around. Years later, I now can firmly say that becoming a minimalist family was one of the best decisions we ever made. “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” But just as Nelson Mandela famously said,
Some days it felt like I would never be done and that my home would always be cluttered. Trust me, as a former emotional hoarder who had to declutter 30 years of stuff, I know how tough it can be to conquer the clutter.Īfter all, I have two curious and very active boys and a husband that was always working and never around to help, so it felt like I was constantly fighting a battle against mess and stress – a LOSING battle! I’m here to tell you family minimalism is not only possible – it’s amazing! But then, you take one look at your child’s playroom and the stacks and stacks of toys or your husband’s overflowing collection of ratty tees, and you begin to think it’s just a pipe dream that will never happen.
If you’ve landed on this article, chances are you’re dreaming of a simpler and tidier life as a minimalist family.
