You can shed stuff and find happiness.   I open this show by reading my essay ‘Ten Ways to Stop Being Insanely Busy’—slowing down for spiritual growth and everything else. Self-care really CAN be that simple.   My guest, Deanna Yates, is a minimalist expert who has a lot to share with so many great minimalism tips about how to do life more simply—and far more meaningfully.
