Minimal-ish is a podcast hosted by Desirae Endres about striving to live with less of the things that don't matter, more of what does, and pursuing intention in every area of our everyday lives and motherhood. We'll talk about a realistic version of minimalism, family life, motherhood, work, caring for ourselves, budgeting and intentional finances, and everything in between.

Minimal-ish: Minimalism, Intentional Living, Motherhood

Today we bring you #2 in our Holiday Replay Series 

Today I talk with one of my favorite people on the internet, Kat Steck, all about simpifying this season and celebrating it according to your own values. We discuss gift giving, putting less pressure on ourselves to do things we don't want to do, making new traditions, less consumerism, frugal traditions, and more.

We are getting Hygge today on the show because winter is the perfect season to do so. This time, I went straight to the source: Denmark.
