The Relationship Between ‘Talk’ and ‘Work’ Is That One Kills The Other

Tiny House Living is a Dream Come True

My Favorite Podcast

Podcast 99 | Breathe

via The Minimalists Podcast

In this podcast The minimalists address some hard-hitting questions, including:

• How do I reconcile many of the traditional goals I grew up with—corporate career, marriage, children, home ownership, etc.—with the tenets of minimalism I now follow?
• What advice do you have for recent college graduates who are graduating with mountains of debt and molehills of prospects?
