#226: What Is Your Real Road Block? Apr 18, 2019

Show notes

Sometimes, while in the middle of a project, it's easy to get stuck. You lose steam. Or you get discouraged. Or you lose interest.

Then you stop. And then you never get around to finishing it.

It just happens.

And sometimes you don't finish what you started because it's no longer a priority, which is totally ok.

But, sometimes, you stop because something very specific is blocking you.

On today's episode, I talk about why it's important to figure out what your real roadblocks are so that you can finally push past them.

#225: Should You Finish What You Start? Or Not? Apr 02, 2019

Show notes

For today's episode of Life Made Simple, I continue with the topic of good intentions... as in something we keep with a good intention to DO, MAKE, FINISH, or FIX.

We all have those kinds of projects in our life. Things that we start, we intended to do, but for whatever reason we just haven't finished yet.

But what happens when those projects pile up? When those good intentions begin to clutter our home, and weigh on our minds (because you know they do). So often, those good intentions - those projects left undone - become negative feelings of guilt.

For today's episode, I talk about finishing what you start. But not about HOW to finish what you start (I'll actually give you tips on that next week). Instead, we look at how to determine whether something should be finished or not.

#223: A More Positive Perspective Of Packrats Mar 20, 2019

Show notes

We all know that here are a lot of negative connotations associated with the term "hoarder" or even "packrat". They always seem to get a bad rap. And while I know that there are for sure negative effects and consequences of hoarding behavior, for today's episode I offer you a slightly different perspective on the topic.

#222: 9 Things You Might Have Too Many Of Mar 08, 2019

Show notes

There is nothing wrong with having multiples of things... especially when you use them regularly. Or if you really just love them. But, over time, a few things somehow multiply and they turn into too many.

And when you have too many of an item they tend to take up space, time, and energy.

On today's episode, I give you a list of things that you may have too many of in your home.

#221: Understanding The 5 Love Languages (PART 3) Mar 06, 2019

Show notes

After listening to the first few episodes in this series, I hope by now you have figured out what your primary love language(s) are.

Today, I explain how to better speak other people's love languages that may be foreign to you. I also explain why it's so hard for some people to learn new languages and easy for others.

And if you have a hard time expressing love in a different language, I give you some very specific examples of easy and effective tips and tricks that you can use for each love language.

Not only that, but I help you to be a better advocate for yourself for when your love tank is running on low, and how to be patient with your loved ones as they learn your love language.

#218: When Their Love Tank Is Running Low Feb 23, 2019

Show notes

When trying to figure out your loved one's love language, it's important to pay attention to how they express love to you and to others. But, like I explain in today's episode, another thing you need to pay attention to are things that they complain about.

What complaints do you hear most often from your loved one? What do they nag you about? What do they grumble about? And what do they really want and need from you?
