- Would Leave 6 Stars if I Could
It took me a few episodes to get into this podcast - I won’t lie but now I’m a subscriber. Shannon gives very practical tips without being preachy or judgmental. Her takes are thoughtful and nuanced. A lot of podcasts in the more home management or decluttering space can be very repetitive and Shannon brings an amazing creativity to each episode.

Additionally, her delivery is... more

Shannon is so genuine and has tons of great tips for paring down all aspects of your life!
Apple Podcasts5TureleyUnited States3 months ago - Lots of Ads.
I have trouble following along when there’s 5 mins of ads in the middle of the episodes; or “links” while she’s talking. I understand the need to monetize content to a certain degree but it kinda goes against the whole “minimalism” idea.
