Ep 97: Simplifying Parenting and Connecting with Your Kids with Dr. Sarah Bren

As a parent, I constantly wonder if I am doing the right thing, teaching my child the things they need to know, and helping them become independent. Some days I feel like I nailed it and other days feel like a failure.

However, my journey toward minimalism has had some wonderful overlap when it comes to the rest of my life - outside of the stuff in my home. It has helped me become more intentional and that includes how I spend my time and the relationships I have. Of course the most important relationships in my life are those with my partner and that with my daughter.

Since, there is always much to learn in this life, I brought in an expert when it comes to the parent/child relationships we have.
