    What can walking around the world teach us about happiness, human connection, and living with less? In this inspiring conversation, Kelly speaks with Tom Turcich, the 10th person in history to walk around the world! Over seven years, Tom travelled an incredible 28,000 miles across 38 countries and six continents alongside his dog Savannah, who became the first dog to accomplish this journey! Tom reflects on this extraordinary experience, which he describes as a "grand meditation," and shares how years of walking helped him clear mental clutter, deepen his self-awareness, and rethink his relationship with material possessions. You will learn: How travelling alone can help us better understand ourselves and work through mental clutter. Why our possessions can begin to weigh us down and how owning less can bring greater freedom. What exploring different cultures taught Tom about happiness, wealth, and human connection. How becoming more curious about our thoughts can lead to greater clarity and better life decisions. Why stepping outside our comfort zones can reveal just how capable and adaptable we really are. How letting go of excess stuff and noise can help us focus on what truly matters. Be inspired to embrace new experiences, live more intentionally, and create more space for happiness, connection, and freedom in your life.

    Oct 12 2026
    Want to discover how living a minimalist lifestyle can transform your life for the better? In celebration of 300 episodes of Millennial Minimalists, Kelly shares 13 of the most powerful lessons she's learned from eight years of running the podcast and exploring intentional living. What began as a journey to simplify physical possessions has evolved into a much deeper exploration of mental wellness, personal growth, and intentional living. Drawing from her own experiences and conversations with leading voices in minimalism and personal development, Kelly revisits some of her favourite insights and quotes from past podcast guests and shares how embracing a less-is-more mindset has transformed the way she thinks, spends, works, and lives. In this episode, you will learn: Why minimalism is about much more than owning fewer things How letting go of physical clutter can help you recognize and work through mental and emotional clutter Why minimalism is not about deprivation, but discovering your version of "enough" How buying less can help you use less and ultimately need less How simplifying your life can create more space for rest, healthier boundaries, and meaningful connections Why living with less can help you quiet the noise, reduce distractions, and become more intentional with your time and attention How a minimalist mindset can help you let go of social pressures, reconnect with your values, and become your most authentic self Why simplifying your life is an ongoing practice rather than a one-time project Be inspired to look beyond your possessions, let go of what no longer serves you, and embrace a simpler, more intentional lifestyle that creates space for what matters most. Kelly shares quote, "A minimalist lifestyle strips away the excess and quiets the noise, creating space for us to discover who we truly are and live a life that's authentic to us."

  • How Much is Enough? Minimalism, Money & More

    How Much is Enough? Minimalism, Money & More
    Sep 28 2026
    Have you ever asked yourself what “enough” really looks like for you? In this episode, Kelly shares a conversation she recently had with finance writers Emily Batdorf and Cassidy Horton, the podcasters behind The Finance Girlies, who invited her onto their show to talk about minimalism, mindful spending, and how living with less can change the way we think about money. Together, Kelly, Emily and Cassidy explore the relationship between minimalism and spending, how defining your version of “enough” can help you make more intentional financial decisions, and how easy it can be to spend money on an aspirational version of yourself rather than the life you actually live. In this conversation, you will learn: What minimalism looks like in her everyday life The financial benefits of living with less How to recognize when you’re spending for yourself versus an aspirational version of yourself How social media and comparison can influence what you think you need Why spending can sometimes leave us feeling anxious or uneasy, and how more intentional habits can help create a greater sense of control Simple ways to create more space between wanting something and buying it Why buying less can help you use less and eventually learn to need less Mindful habits Kelly uses to better manage her own spending How knowing what is enough for you can change the way you approach money Be inspired to consider what your version of enough looks like, spend with greater intention, and make financial decisions that better reflect your values, priorities and the life that is true to you.

  • Minimalist Mixer with Diane Boden of the Minimalist Moms Podcast

    Minimalist Mixer with Diane Boden of the Minimalist Moms Podcast
    Sep 7 2026
    What does minimalist living really look like in everyday life? In this episode, Kelly is joined by Diane Boden, host of the ⁠Minimalist Moms Podcast⁠, for a casual and honest conversation about all things minimalist living. Kelly and Diane share many of the same values around living with less and with greater intention, while bringing different perspectives to the conversation: Diane as a minimalist mom and Kelly as a non-mom, for now. Together, they reflect on when they first embraced minimalism, what they immediately gained by letting go and simplifying, and how the benefits of living with less have continued to evolve through different seasons of life. You will learn: How Kelly and Diane personally define minimalist living What they gained when they first started living with less Simple habits that help them feel grounded, calm, and clear The perfectly imperfect side of minimalism and where they sometimes get it wrong Morning and evening routines that create more calm Lessons that have stayed with them from some of their favourite podcast guests Their favourite quotes and words of wisdom around living with less and with greater intention Kelly and Diane also reflect on why minimalism isn’t about getting everything right. Instead, it can give us greater awareness of what adds value to our lives, what may be creating unnecessary excess, and where we want to direct more of our time, energy, and attention. Be inspired to embrace imperfect minimalism, live with greater intention, and make more room for what matters most.

    What happens when our digital spaces feel almost endless, making it easy to keep accumulating without ever stopping to ask what we actually need? In this episode, Kelly is joined by digital organization expert and tech and productivity coach Amanda Jefferson to explore how we can simplify our digital lives and create a healthier relationship with technology. Amanda breaks down the Big Four categories of digital clutter: emails, files, passwords and photos, and shares practical strategies to better manage each one. You’ll learn how to organize desktop files, declutter the photos on your phone, make better use of cloud storage and password managers, and discover helpful apps, shortcuts and everyday systems that can make your digital life easier to maintain.
