4: 5 Ways to Simplify Your Life during a Busy Season for your Family

Minimal-ish: Minimalism, Intentional Living, Motherhood

This week we're talking about simplifying in a busy season. We know that the back to school season brings a much busier pace for many families, so we are discussing how you can keep things simple during a season like this.

This doesn't just apply to back to school, but any busy season.

Minimalism isn't just about decluttering- it's something you can adapt into your entire life. That includes your schedule, your mindset, and the way you intentionally live out your life.
