Living life as a highly-sensitive introvert can be overwhelming! Anxiety and self-doubt can often follow, slowing us down and stopping us from leading the life we really want.

Opting for a simpler life is one way to reduce the likelihood of this overwhelm taking hold in the first place, and I love to share the things that help me as I navigate my own business and busy family life.

Decluttering is just one of the tools I use, lightening the load of both physical and emotional stuff. I also talk about the power of language, of working to our strengths and having the right support team. Of simplifying, of setting strong boundaries and of resting.
