De-Influence Yourself

This home is warm, safe, full of laughter, tears, joy and memories.

You don’t have to have a Pinterest perfect home, matched furniture, perfect decor, high end appliances, or all the new trends.

Consumerism is, (IMO) one of the leading causes for anxiety, insecurity, and stress. Over purchasing to achieve and satisfy our idolatry, and envy.

Something that can never be quenched by earthly things, debt, or even wealth.

This home is the one we have in this season. Raising kids, pets, and nurturing our relationships. Finding joy in the mess of life, and noticing the many blessings all around us.

If you’re in a similar season of house projects, young kids, and second hand, budgeting lifestyles, welcome!! You’re in good company 🫶🏼🖤

... Read moreIn a world dominated by trends and materialism, the concept of 'de-influencing' seeks to bring balance back into our lives. It's about stepping away from societal pressures to have the latest and greatest, allowing us to appreciate what we already have. This includes cherishing the imperfections of our homes, crafting a space filled with memories rather than mere aesthetics. By focusing on a sustainable lifestyle, we can minimize waste and environmental impact while cultivating a warm, loving environment for our families. Adopting a mindset of underconsumption encourages us to prioritize meaningful experiences over physical possessions. Engaging with secondhand items not only promotes sustainability but can also lead to unique and personal touches within our homes. When you choose to embrace simplicity, you're betting on the long-lasting benefits of emotional well-being and community connection. Encouraging a culture of gratitude and mindful living can help alleviate anxiety and foster stronger family dynamics. Embrace this shift towards minimalism and observe the positive changes it brings to your daily life.
