The way you give advice and explain your lifestyle without judgement on others is so refreshing. Love each and every one of your videos you have made.

Love your inspiration. Took me about a hundred summers (exaggeration) to accept that my go to is a black tee shirt dress. Feel great in them. Can dress up or down with a necklace or shoes. Is my closet in the summer made up of 7 black tee shirt dresses? Yes, yes it is. Do I wear them everyday?? Yes, yes I do. 😂 I never feel self conscience. I am always comfortable. I always feel confident that I look good. BUT…. Was the shopping habit of a million styles and colors a drain? YES!!! I literally had BINS of beautiful clothing that was not me in the garage. Because I just kept pulling my black tee shirt dresses. It’s a hamster wheel. Keep making your content!! It’s so nice to have a tribe.

I am also turning 40 this year and it is so nice to find someone my age who is so inspiring and motivating! Getting so much value from your videos, thanks!

As a European, starting off your adult life with student debt, is mind boggling. I imagine it makes you feel like you’re already behind on finances, even before you’ve started. And I think it normalizes the idea of being in debt, which to me isn’t normal at all. Back on topic though: I hate shopping, but still loved this video 💕

Can you just be my best friend, it's nice to see a woman the same age as me doing all these great things. Thanks for being a motivator as I am getting my life together and getting rid of clutter and coffee. Your awesome :)

My journey started six months ago as I increasingly felt uncomfortable in my home. I felt the need to move, so I could have more space. It was taking a while so I decided to start sorting through my stuff in preparation. So much stuff was discarded, it was sickening… That really made me understand how wasteful the acquisition of useless things is. I’m still in the same apartment, but with so much less stuff and actually I have more than enough space.

I am so enjoying your videos! I really appreciate how authentic you are, and your take on things is often unique and different. Even when the topic is not relevant to me (such as the one on breaking your coffee habit), I'm still interested in hearing what you have to say about it. I always find at least one memorable insight to take with me. Keep up the good work! I can't wait to see what's next!

Thank you for that book recommendation . I know my old programming comes up for me when I’m tempted to shop to ease my insecurities

I am just about to let go of my "finding my style" phase. I bought a bunch of clothes, mainly secondhand, and I am ready to let go of everything that was a fail or is not me anymore. Funny enough I returned to clothes I always used to wear :D I guess I just had a weird phase of reinventing myself.. Guess I am reinventing myself in another way and not through clothing.

I had very similar experience of buying a lot to counter my insecurities and stopped buying after getting a better job and more money I didn't want to waste

15:15 Wow, i dont know how people could criticise your outfit. You look beautiful in it. You are a beautiful soul inside and out. I am a student of various religions including buddhism and christianity. There is a statement in the new testament that says, "Godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into the world, and it is certain we shall carry nothing out, but having food and covering we shall be therewith content." I have asked many people who profess to be christians if they would be content with just food and covering. I havent gotten a "yes" from any of them. It seems too extreme to them. I have been striving to get to this state of being, but you are the only one I know who seems to be actually there.

I loved this! The older I became, the more I stopped caring about what others thought. What works for me is the most important. Thank you 🙏

i love the minimal lifestyle how you have things that make you feel comfortable! nothing extra!

Every single of your vids are pure gems ! I could listen to you all day long, so glad I found you 🥰🙏 Thank you

Thank you again for another fantastic inspirational video! I randomly discovered your channel through the KZfaq suggestive algorithms. Your message resonates with me.

The workbook called 30 Days to Stop Being a Shopaholic by Harper Daniels is cute and helpful.

I greatly enjoy and appreciate your content. Thank you!

Just subbed. Love the content. I have been a minimalist for 8 years. It’s a constant effort to not get sucked up into the world of consumerism. I have really enjoyed my life in the country. It’s very peaceful and has really helped me grow and learn more about myself. ❤

I love your videos 🪻Are you planning to make a video about your updated wardrobe? Very interesting

Great points! At some point in 2022, I fell prey to buying a pretty vintage dress for special events -- that never happened! I don't own much clothing, so this dress is extremely visible hanging in my closet -- taunting me. LOL! Recently I have started selling nostalgic clothing items and accessories to vintage and resale shops. While my husband and I are fairly minimal, I am ready to declutter to the essentials and items that bring me great joy.

I also find that I spend less when I'm making money! Currently a student again, so for a while I wasn't making money, but then I got a part-time job and became more frugal. A simplistic explanation is that now I see money as hours spent at work, but it also has another element to it... I think that being able to make money, being able to hold down a job, gives me a sense of agency over my life and I want to save it.

Much like you described in your story I am 31 and basically trying to lead myself down a better and more fulfilling path. Preferably, one where I'm not spending so much money. Lol. I've been attracted to aspects of minimalism for a few years now and just had a hard time getting it to stick but this time feels different and I'm already just not purchasing items as quickly as I normally would. It feels nice. 😊

Love this!

I really enjoy your videos. You inspire me! I’m trying to be a minimalist for myself and my 4 big dogs 😁 Keep going!

Alicia, i am downsizing my stuff and getting my dodge caravan ready to be nomatic this spring and summer. I want to go back to the olympic peninsula to visit family but also to go to the ocean and kalaloch. When you dont own "things"this becomes easier. I love your videos. I look forward to and learn from each one. By the way, today i am 1 week coffee free and i am loving it. Thank you.

Just found your channel 30 minutes ago and wow...your message is exactly what I need to hear right now in my life❤ I also just got The Four Agreements on my ereader to read. One question though...how do you stop giving a f about what other people (the ones you love, not strangers) think of you? I give too many fcks about that

I wish everyone could watch this video. It was so informative and honest. It was great how you spoke about the psychological aspect of shopping (and its environment impact). I have also been on my minimalist journey after a clothes (and maybe everything else addiction) and you’ve really inspired me to cut down even more. It’s been slow progress for me, but I might be nearing the light at the end of the tunnel. Your other video about your minimalist home really showed me how little you actually need and inspired for the last big push. Thanks!!!! 🙏

You are such a beautiful soul. Keep shining your light. ✨😊🙏🏼

I’d love to hear more about the process of you getting rid of everything you no longer wanted. :)

Sooo much wisdom! I'm binge watching for days !❤

Your subscribers been going up! Good job! Almost at 3000 :)

I’m in the process of finding myself and your videos are helping to guide me. I just wanted you to know you inspire me.

I love your videos so much , they just motivate me. I would love a video on how you choose what brands of clothes you choose to buy. I am also a minimalist it has taken me years to get to where I am now. I still struggle with finding brands of clothes that last or that are better for the environment. Sending love and light your way 🙏🏻

Thank you! This was helpful.

Loved this video and the points you presented!!! I can totally relate!! Would love for you to do a deeper dive into the letting go of people’s opinions! 😅

Thank you so much for sharing your process. I know these ideas will help me on my journey. Thank you for being a great source of understanding and light.

totally agree on all points! good video! also you look great :)

I tuoi video sono molto motivanti, pur non essendo minimalista, cerco di essere più consapevole delle scelte che faccio! Grazie!

Hey! I am finding your videos really helpful. They are packed with so much goodness and your lifestyle really inspires me. Can I ask how you got rid of your stuff? I too have a lot of stuff and there are somethings I find hard to let go because I have spent money on it. Even though I have stopped buying more stuff, I feel the urge to let go even more but to my family, it's wasteful to declutter and there are a few things I might need in the future. I am also finding it hard to find a personal style due to the amount of stuff I have, which is why your content & your ideas inspire me. Thank you!

Great tips! I'm the same: the more money I earn or save, the less I wanna spend it on stuff I don't need. I feel so much lighter when I let go of all things I don't like, need or want in my life anymore. Life is so much more than working to buy things, and since I've become a minimalist I've experienced the biggest happiness ever, something I didn't even think could actually exist 😊

Wow! Love your videos its spot on. So much good advice and inspiration. Try to eat better and need more tips so love more videos about food. Hello from Sweden!

Another great Video,It's no coincidence why your number of subscribers is increasing,..😊

Great tips!

I am surprised how little shopping I need to do.

Would love to hear about your full-time travel.

I love your videos! Had a huge “instagram fashion girl” wardrobe that changed with motherhood but still yes fashion makes us feel so insecure, could you share what are your jobs now ?

29ish years = Saturn's return

This has helped me so much ❤

Everything you said is so right. ❤❤❤

Great reflections 🇦🇺❤️

Could you please enable the automatically generated subtitles option? I love your videos and I would love to watch them, but unfortunately I won't be able to understand them without subtitles❤

What’s your thoughts on books? Do you have any books?

Like I literally only use 10% of clothes in my closet! 😂

❤

With your extreme minimal lifestyle do you create much garbage? Love your videos & I guessed a few videos ago that you are a Gemini. We love, love, love our freedom.

🫶🙏

Youre covered but they dont look like real clothes to walk into a church, school, mall or job...etc. But i do love your idea of minimalism. Like the hair and body soap thing. And no nicknacks. Unfortunately clothes and items i put on my body are my jam.

Another excellent video!! I believe The Four Agreements should be required reading😀
