Manage episode 509194706 series 3002897
Hello Friend!
We hit 100,000 downloads last week, so in appreciation, for everyone that adds a rating and review, I am going to put you in a drawing for $100 amazon gift card!!! You just need to send me an email at [email protected] letting me know you left a review with your user name. If you have already left a review, share with a friend and add me in your instagram stories and tag me and you will be entered in the drawing as well! This podcast wouldn’t be as successful if it wasn’t for all of you, so I appreciate you all!
I really want to talk today about 3 areas where you can easily simplify your life to live more intentionally with ADHD. As I have talked about a few times here, I have never been diagnosed with ADHD, but I have many characteristics and that is really why I had to simplify my whole life to live with more intention. I really enjoy slow living with my family now and I wouldn’t have it any other way. When I was working as a full time nurse with 5 kids at home and all the activities and sports, it was exhausting, but once I changed the way I lived, I was able to quit my full time nursing job which gave me so much freedom to how I spend my days & more time with family.
The first area you can simplify is your cooking, if you haven’t followed claiming simplicity on instagram, you should do that now. A large portion of many family’s budgets goes to food, but it doesn’t have to. I can show you how a family of four can eat dinners on $75/week and that is nutrient dense, healthy meals. You don’t need fancy expensive meals and you certainly don’t need to buy convenience foods at the store but instead learn to cook simple homemade meals at home on a very low budget.
Next, declutter your home. Living with less stuff really reduces stress. You will also feel less overwhelmed when you have less stuff to care for - start with one room of you home and see the difference. Always make sure you carefully think about each item you bring into your home. I am going to do another declutter challenge, so email me if this is something you would like to be a part of. It is for busy moms, so it will be steps you can’t quickly declutter in a short amount of time.
And lastly, you will want to reduce debt, living debt free can be rewarding in so many ways. If you are spending more than you bring in, think about where you can make changes. I will be doing another no spend challenge starting January first and this time I am going to do all audio. If you are interested in joining, please reach out by email or DM me on instagram!
And with all of this, make sure you are putting Jesus at the center of it all!
Love you friend! Have a blessed week
