Description

Have you ever looked at someone and thought, “How are they doing it all?”
The truth is, most people are not doing it all. They’ve just quietly decided what they will no longer carry.

In this episode, I walk through my personal “Things I Don’t Do” list across the five systems: Me, Food, Home, Family, and Work. These are not rules for everyone. They are life-giving decisions for this season.

Some examples I share:

• I don’t do red dye
• I don’t watch movies twice
• I don’t do takeout pizza
• I don’t buy extra appliances when my KitchenAid works just fine
• I don’t clean my windows
• I don’t use a traditional planner
• I don’t allow sleepovers before 5th grade
• I don’t celebrate Mother’s Day in the traditional way
• I don’t do coffee dates
• I don’t start work before 9am
  

These decisions are not about perfection. They are about peace.

At the end of the episode, I challenge you to create your own list by asking:

• What drains me every single time?
• What do I keep doing out of guilt?
• What could I release for this season?
  

Because margin really does create joy.
