- Modern life and technology have given us this ability to stack and pack more into our lives than we can physically handle and I think what feels even worse than that is that all of this distraction and busyness keeps us from doing the things that are meaningful. I think especially as women a lot of us are really stuck in survival mode and the worst part is that it can be kind of a paradox where you're stuck and you don't know how to get out even though sometimes ending survival mode is a lot simpler than it sounds.

If you're new here, welcome! I'm Madi, I'm passionate about helping women live life that's truly life, not just life as everyone says it should be. I love creating videos about minimalism and slow living and upload them often enough. 💫
In my videos you will see my minimalist home, my capsule wardrobe, decluttering, inspiration for slow living with kids, intentional living, minimalist finances, things I no longer buy, things I no longer own, things I buy more of as a minimalist, and just overall my passion and inspiration for simple living!

if you've had an experience with decluttering resulting in exiting survival mode, I wanna hear it!
YAAAAS! But I think what really took it to the next level was my mindset shift. I wasn’t just trying to get rid of things I didn’t want or need. I was determined to trust that I could live well (thrive) with less! But the tangibility of decluttering brought that new mindset into reality.
I got rid of 25 clothing items with your help. Motivated for the 10 item wardrobe ❤
I would say I’m in the middle of exiting survival mode. :) Thanks to decluttering. it’s a huge process, we have so much stuff. But I realized *I* don’t want it. It was fear that held onto stuff, not me. That was a powerful realization. Having less stuff absolutely makes you feel better. My goal is to clean less and ironically right now I’m “cleaning” way more right now to be able to clean less. But that consists of tons of decluttering and organizing, not actual cleaning
My story is very long and I have shared portions of it here in the past, but it freed me from financial burdens and how I look at my own relationships. -JusticePirate
Wow the notion that Jesus comes to women whereas men have to go seeking for him is profound. Thank you for this video and sharing these powerful messages ❤
I just want to tell you how refreshing it is to hear you talk about your faith. I love Jesus too and following his example of being unhurried and simple has been of great help to me. Unfortunate circumstances led me to have to be both mom and dad to my three son’s from the time they were 8 (twins) and 13. I had to be the home maker and the breadwinner. Women are not meant to do the role of the woman and the man. We can’t and we shouldn’t be held to that expectation. I think this is a problem in our society. Great video Madi.
this means so much to me thank you love
@@MadisunGrayyou are very welcome ❤
I’m not a Christian but what the nuns would call a fallen catholic. I found the observation of where God meets woman to be quite powerful and thought provoking. Thanks Madi for sharing your thoughts in an open and inviting way. I’ll be contemplating that today❤
haha "saving shirts with holes in them just in case I got into painting." omg 😆
I have SO much to get rid of at the moment. I have a pile of things that are broken and with holes in them that I have been planning to fix but the pile just keeps getting bigger! I would LOVE to just throw them away to be honest! TODAY!
Thank you. I always feel so inspired after watching your videos. I share them often. 😉
💖
get it girl 🤍
get it girl 🤍
DO it girl! I am a painter, artist, and I bought myself the CUTEST apron to wear over my clothes. Better than 20 holey shirts. I do have old jeans and white t shirt I wear to do these things but that's it.
@@txspacemom765 i love this
Also, you don't have to toss them! ❤ You can always repurpose them to be rags for cleaning and other useful things so they don't go to waste! That's what I'm doing now. People back then were really great about making use out of everything until it literally wasn't possible to reuse for a different purpose. Saves sooo much money in the long run! 🎉😊
Wow when you talked about how Jesus meets woman I almost cried because it’s so beautiful and meaningful that he sees our hearts and where we often feel the most lonely. Please continue to speak more about Christ. I’m saving up for your course I’ve wanted it for over a year. Excited to one day experience it!
Your message is the perfect thing I needed to hear right now. With everything going on in the world I have been squirreling things away just in case. I’m realizing it is weighing me down.
I’ve read the Bible 5 times and I’ve never thought about the difference of where God meets women. 💕 Amazing and so very true! 🥰
its really easy to just identify with the men in the stories, and I totally do that too because of the cultural difference for men and women at that time but I agree it really is powerful to consider how out of the way God goes to love and meet the women of the Bible.
This thought just wraps my heart in love. As a homeschooling momma of 5 children dealing with divorcing an abusive man, This is so healing and what I needed to hear today ❤️
Do you meal plan? Have you ever done a video about what your family eats, how often you grocery shop to keep a minimal pantry, etc?
im a stay at home dad, and I relate a lot to what youre saying. As a fan of John Mark Comer and minimalism, I feel like there isnt a lot of resources that join these two (faith and simple living). I dont know if your course is only available for women, but I’d be super interested. -JG
Hey, thanks for this. I have seen a little bit of your content before and have enjoyed it. I am very much on a decluttering journey after raising 3 kids. (!!!) 2 are still at home working on launching but are adults and this place is chaos. Anyway, I wanted to say, though I do not share the same faith as you, you have a nice manner of speaking about yours that recommends it so much more than I sometimes see. It can be easy to forget there are Christians out there who are actually striving to be good people when the loudest voices tend to be the hateful ones. Thank you for adding your soft voice to the mix.
Love this video thank you for your kind and gentle perspective
Girllllll I needed to hear this. I’ve always had a plan A, plan B, sometimes a plan C.
sounds like were kindred spirits! if I can do it you can do it 🤍
what a beautiful message ✨
I really appreciate how your mind works 🥰 Lovely message this week!
Wow. This was great. I felt so convicted by step 1 that my jaw literally dropped. 😂
I've suspected this to be true, but your explanation helped put the logic (or lack thereof) into words. Thank you for this!
And your theory on holding onto things "just in case"! How it's really just saying "I believe I will have regrets in the future. I can't trust myself. I am the kind of person who will have regrets." I mean WOW. Eye-opening.
So so good to hear this right now. Was literally just having a randomly super anxious day, prayed about it, came to TH-cam for a distraction and this video was on my home page. ❤ No distraction necessary now!
And you're so right, doing something good for myself in those anxious moments feels so wrong when you're listening to the lies your mind is telling you. "You're a failure. You don't deserve to be treated to something nice. Why would you need a break right now? What have you accomplished today to earn that?" UGH. But as you said, those are all related to scarcity and survival. Like "there's no time to shave my legs or give myself a pedicure! I've already lost so much time curled up in a ball today!", and I am not experiencing a crisis in my life, so I don't need to treat life that way. I am allowed to enjoy my life! It is safe enough to relax and smile!
Last thing I swear. The author of "The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry" has a great one-season podcast with another Christian author called "Fight Hustle End Hurry" with some life-changing lessons in there! I like to give it a re-listen once or twice a year.
This video, particularly the part about "preparing for the worst", really resonated with me. Thank you!
Again, exactly what I needed to hear! I’m in a season of not being the person who always leads, plans, and prepares. But I’m still learning how to not do those things and feeling like I’m going to combust! 😊
❤thank u. I have felt peace throughout this video
16:00 💕 this is so important Madisun! ThankYou for your work!
I need to add...your Italy video still resonates with me and I am slow walking my life that way.
I think about my experience in Italy alllll the time. it was so life changing, I'm so glad you got to experience it through that video with me!
The Unhurried Life! I love it❤
This video was amazing, thank you!
Really beautiful
Thank you for your openness, feels good not to be alone and to became braver❤
Brilliant video
Thank you
I’ve taken alot from this !
This was great. It’s not the same old things I’ve been hearing from the other YT I’ve watched. They talk about slow living, but they did not explain it like you did… So eye-opening! And the “keeping it just incase” explanation was powerful 😊
This was so good! So many wonderful insights! I especially needed to hear the part about not being in a hurry!
Love this so much! Your videos remind me what’s important xx🤍
You are changing my life thank you!!!
Just found your channel and I'm grateful. Kindred spirit here! 😊Thank you for your content❤
I loved that video and you are completely right about the whole hurrying thing and how we are just trained to never EVER be late and how rude it is. Especially here in Germany where I live, I wish we could all just take a chill pill and relax more over here 😄😄
You are just the best! Thank you for this video!!!!
Wow, thanks so much! I don't struggle with the physical stuff as much but I found this very relatable to my process with other things I hold on to (ideas, relationships, etc). Your analogy about real dollar bills and your thoughts was genius!
I appreciate that I can take a lot from your videos despite the Faith references that I can't relate to, love ur content even as an agnostic person! :) I think your advice is universal regardless
Love your videos.
I’ve purged an entire apartment and clothing! The difference when I wear natural fibers is amazing. I bought a pair of merino wool pajamas, I just air them out in the morning and can wear them for a week between washes since they are self cleaning. During the day I wear a cashmere sweat suit. I also wash once a week. I looove dresses but find that the styles I like are polyester so I purchased some patterns and plan to sew my copies of my favorite dresses with merino or organic cotton fabrics.
I got rid of all of my plastic yoga leggings and plastic Rothy’s shoes.
Whne I wear my natural fibers I feel cozy and comfy.
Madi… Your videos are so special: they are real and helpful, full of wisdom, in an inspiring motivating way without being preachy. That’s quite an achievement I believe and very refreshing. Thank you 🙏🏼
I've yoyo'd with minimalism for most of my life. I just want to get off the hamster wheel lately. I've loved Jennifer Scott's 10 item wardrobe for a decade now but I keep stuff "just in case" because I've moved 20x in the past 10 years. I've had to get rid of everything so many times and it didn't always feel like it was my choice. Lord willing, I'm done moving around so I'm letting go of the coping mechanism of holding on to stuff for comfort and having familiar things around for that same reason. My family has always been minimal and lived in small spaces but I know we have too much for us right now. It's totally related to my mindset of survival mode, thanks so much for this video! 🤗✨🌴🌅🌺
I think it's all forward progress! nothing for me has been linear growth.
Madi, the Lord has actually been speaking A LOT of what is in this video to me lately. Very timely video, thank you for sharing!
I am so happy I stumbled upon this video. I am so touched on so many different levels that it makes me cry. Thank you so much for making this video. I needed a single second of it.
You’re a GODSEND thank you for sharing your light and doing this work!! I cried so hard listening to you. Finally someone who talks about God and whole slow living. Please keep it coming!! Godspeed
LOVE what you said about where God meets women! How beautiful and powerful. 🙏
God is so good it's crazy how much I miss him in the ordinary.
@@MadisunGray same. I find myself asking to hear his voice lately. But I wonder how often he is speaking to me and I just can't hear from all the noise. Love that you talk so openly about your faith! ♥️
yay! love when you post
🤍big love
Madisun 💖you don’t know how bad I needed your encouragement today! I’m always in survival mode and just struggling. Your videos help so much💖🙏💖🙏💖🙏
this means the world to me
Hi Madisun! So happy to have found your channel! xo
That stuff about plan for the worst, hope for the best makes a lot of sense. That and being too much of a people pleaser does a lot to my thought process. I get stuck in the “what if I need this” later on.
Our lives have a lot in common, even down to the coconut water 😉. Thank you for cheering me up in a Moment where I felt down for my "boring" life as a young mom and homemaker. Those words about how god meets women during their boring daily task really really hit me ❤
Your teaching about slow living have taken me out of a time of confusion and Brain fog 😊❤
Excellent video great advice!
So true thats me just incase omg !! ❤🙏
🌈Thank you, Madi! You changed my life today.
Excellent video just excellent. Thank you!
Excellent video thank you Madi
This was a wonderful video!
Wow! I know this dropped two weeks ago but I am just seeing this…. I am cooking supper and listening I can’t thank you enough for your insight on where God meets women! Sometimes I feel so behind in the career department and just brushing up my resume today after reading up on exhaustive recruitment essays on LinkedIn… then your words. My heart was touched. 😊 🙏 Thank you.
THANK YOU Madison for making this video. I think you answered my request making this. I might watch this a couple times, let your voice marinate my heart and my brain. I hope your feeling great in your latest pregnancy. Bless you for sharing more wonderful wisdom.
thank you catherine!!! I wanna give you a big hug!
I am so reading that book. Just put it on hold at my library for me. ;) Thank you for sharing. The idea of slowing down like Jesus really resonated with me especially as we approach Easter. 🤍 I always appreciate your thoughts and your honesty in your videos. All my love 🤍
I listened to that book on Audible- amazing book! I got SO much out of it. ❤️
I have just started watching your channel this week and have gone very obsessed 😅😂 Trying to figure out my identity as self, mom of 1 toddler, wife and liked your videos.
I decluttered alot, got plants, going to start recycling, thinking I can handle more kids soon, less tv, trying to cook more eat out less, etc but now extra depressed because idk balance its always 0 or 100. So since I don't look like you (short hair, lots of tattoos from past) or can't match cause we cant/don't want to go too natural and slow as yall that I feel like I don't fit into "crunchy" life and "slow living" and feel like giving up and resorting back to old ways. So overwhelmed that even feeling like quitting college and back to struggling to connect with my toddler. Missing my pug we once had, yours is so cute and calm. I'm not exactly religious as well. I'm a sahm and won't be working for a few years but probably plan on elementary and working when older. I'm on medication for my diagnoses that I need rn. You probably won't see this but needed to vent all this since my husband is at work and not here to listen to me over stress dumb things 😂🤧
you're always welcome to vent it out here! glad you got this out of you! just wanted to point out that all these limiting beliefs have just "decluttered" themselves in the process! well done mama! It's such a lie that as women we need to look like one another or believe all the same things to glean wisdom and deep friendship from each other. I'm very encouraged and inspired that you're here and are getting value from my videos- never feel like you have to look like me or do all the same things I do, just want to inspire you to be the truest version of YOU. xo
Hope you don’t mind me commenting. I’m a bit like you. I don’t seem to fit either! I’m all or nothing too, but am trying to change that because it’s sets me up to fail. I decided to try and make changes one at a time. I realised I could give my all to one thing at a time and not everything all at once. If that makes sense! Once I’ve established this new way, I move on to the next. I think the sooner we accept we’re all a bit different and no one size fits all we will be happier. I’ve realised it’s about finding what works and is perfect for me. Not trying to fit the mould of what we deem to be perfect. I wish you happiness.😊
I sent a "Super Thanks" bc you helped me understand somebody in my family w trauma that has been close to hoarding. I have too much stuff myself, but working toward minimalism. I appreciate the insight, like a lightbulb and I think it will help me help them :)
Thank you ❤️
I’m so glad I found your channel. I appreciate your content and i I think you are precious. When I first began my minimalism journey, I mostly focused on the ‘things’ and the ‘why’ behind the things. I’m now transitioning my focus from ‘things’ to ‘values.’ So I love that you share so much about this. I’m especially moving towards ease and out of survival mode, while I continue to navigate law school and motherhood. And I love your faith, even though I am not Christian. As Tosha Silver says in Outrageous Openness, “When it comes to God, I am polyamorous.” Many blessings to you and yours 🙏🏻 with gratitude-Lauren💗
thank you lauren! this means so much to me.
Soooo true about God going TO women, I dont know why I’ve never realized the difference between how He speaks to men vs women! Also so funny that you brought up the 10 item wardrobe again because at the beginning I was thinking if you ever get time I’d love to see yet another one of those (and/or for the kids now that they’re older - cuz I need the inspo and motivation so bad for my kids closet hahaha!) … in all your spare time 😂…. Thanks for all the time and thought put into this! Every one gives me a little bit more courage to live a little slower/simpler even as a well seasoned mama. Much love to you and the fam! ❤
Thanks!
Love your videos, but especially loved this video. Thank you for sharing your spiritual thoughts, I absolutely loved them ❤ your videos make me feel so beautiful, excited and blessed to be a woman.
I really related to you talking about living in fear. Man this is were I am everyday and it robs me of so many beautiful moments. My fear effects all my actions. I loved that you talked about God coming to visit women in our everyday simple tasks. It gives me hope to change, and live a more peaceful and present life.
THIS. omg thank you for saying this- you have no idea the encouragement this gives me! thank you!
What a beautiful & much needed ministry Madison has created. Her honesty and insight is such a gift to this world.
These are amazing tips! So grateful God led me to your channel! ❤️🙏🏼
I used to be a minor prepper. It was expensive, even with the little I would have prepped. It was constant worrying...do I have enough? Is it going to last? When does it expire? And then my family, opening things when other things were already open. UGH!!!!! We survived 2020 on very little. In fact, I emptied each room during that time, painted and decluttered about 30% of each room. I have about 40 items in my wardrobe, but I work FT, and I also do photography, hiking, yoga and I volunteer at the animal shelter. I do have to have a few things for each but it's not excessive and often, it over laps. Right now, I am getting set to move out of this house and into around 700 square feet. I have emptied 2 rooms and I am using the rest of the rooms to figure out how to utilized what I have in 700 square feet. More to purge but it's fun and it's freeeeeeeinnnnngggggg!
I hope everyone see's this comment! this is so beautiful. our minds and our fears really are powerful. but whats even more powerful is that feeling you get when you conquer them and realize you're no longer captive. YES.
It really is a mindset and even though 2020 was an absolute thumbs down, I realized what was important and we would be ok. Even in the economy today. I feel ok, I feel safe, because of my mindset. I know it's hard out there for so many, I wish you all peace! @@MadisunGray
Wow that insight that God meets women in the ordinary, is incredible! I love that! Thank you I needed to hear that ❤️
Hi, Madisun! Your sharing is so inspiring to me. I am interesting too in going deeper with the subject of faith and Jesus. I frequently remember your words about how Jesus met women,.in usual situations. I would be curious what other learnings supported you in your journey and how you pass / teach them to your children.
Thank you for your sharings, blessings to your family and wish you a wonderful spring time ☀️🕊️🌿
I luv your advice keep God centered! Luv that you spoke bout trauma and stuff it really opened my eyes.Thank you!❤
Madi, wow…this just blessed my socks off! Thank you for making the life of Jesus so practical + achievable. I believe that if Christians truly lived out what Jesus envisioned for us, Christians and Christianity would look a WHOLE LOT DIFFERENT!
This was a breath of fresh air, and there are definitely some practicals I’m taking away from this and applying asap.
Blessings,
Hannah
You made me feel better as I am emptying my apartment and closet and planning a move from Los Angeles. I hope to relocate to coastal Italy or Sardinia where I can have lower expenses and see the ocean every day
Thanks for the tips and reminders! It’s so true that Jesus met women in the Bible differently than men and He will continue to love us with compassion and care! I’ll be praying for you as you continue and as I take thoughts captive to be obedient to Christ! ❤
I really LOVE you and your content Madisun, you inspire me and also confirm a lot of what God has already taught me through the Holy Spirit in life so far. God bless you and the work of your hands ❤️🥰
Back again 😊 Do you have a video or can say what to clean with that is cheaper and at the store from your cleaning videos? I used water and vinegar to clean my kitchen today and threw away the bleach. Just nervous cause we cook meat most days. Do I mop with just vinegar and dish soap? Do yiu still recommend Dr bronners? You mentioned a brand but it's too pricey for me to justify 😅😂 Wanting to try to make small and safer changes but I threw my old dish soap and dishwasher pods away and don't know what to get now haha Seventh generation? Thank you!! You bring so much light to my days and I'm not a perfect match but I can tell I'm going the right direction. I also paused college so I can focus on me and my family rn after seeing your videos of decluttering the load and taking summers off. I have bigger priorities rn I can now see better
Letting out emotions... one of my favourite ways if I'm very pissed is.... ripping up a cardboard box. or three. Seriously, the sound of the ripping and the phsyical aspect of destroying something into as tiny/big pieces as you want, with or without making vocal sounds is a spiritual practice everyone should know about.
🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely loved what you had to say about where God meets women. Don’t hesitate to talk about theology - God works through women like you.
thank you Erin! I need that encouragement!
GOD will bless you, BIG TIME, for mentioning HIM!!!
I think you would enjoy a book called Do Nothing. It was so interesting to hear the history of work and how it changed with the Industrial Revolution.
You're so pleasant
The end is cute. 😃
Same here I have to stop prepare for the worst 😢
First time commentor but frequent viewer... I also have always had the dream to have a closet full of Anthropologie dresses! I still don't have that because my closet is a little too full... project for Good Friday is finding my favorite clothes in my close and wearing those for a while :)
Sweet Maddie
Needed this! Love that last tip. Does this mean we are going to get a new 10 item wardrobe video 👀
Coming soon! 😍
Thank you for your videos. I love your recommendations. Could you list some of the online stores you enjoy? I’m trying to find pieces that are natural and from a store where everything can go together. I’d love to make capsule wardrobes for my children as well. It’s difficult because we’re in Alaska so if you have any tips for cold climate with short hot summers, that’d be wonderful. Thank you so much for your channel. 💚🌸💚🌸
Choose faith over fear . Take responsibility for your life be the woman whom you want to look up to . Change your environment . The first step is changing your environment. Your external einveomenf l affects your internal environment. I
I'm slowly but surely continuing to pair down my wardrobe
Took me an age! Wow is it difficult?!😮 I started off with so many items. Hundreds. It was the hardest part of declutterring I found….but the most rewarding. I’m now down to fifteen autumn/winter items, but could actually let some more go being truthful. I had major anxiety for weeks after each bag of stuff went. It was only as I finished and a couple of weeks passed that that constant nagging feeling of unease of letting stuff go went. Then I felt like a weight had been lifted. I now absolutely love what I’ve done. I’ve even just sorted a spring/summer wardrobe already! Twelve items of clothing. You are doing really well to keep on. The feeling when you get there is so worth it. Enjoy! 😊
it's a process isn't it?
Accept wear you are. Best advice ever.
Also because you need to be realistic have an emergency fund of 1000dollars. U can put it to the side and never think of it again. You can stop preparing for the worst knowing you have this much put aside. Then focus on the present.
Why are your captions in a different language?! Love all that you share!
Can you do a video more on the 10 item wardrobe?❤
Could you make an updated 10 item wardrobe video?? ❤️
Last week i quit my daughters dance class after a public meltdown. Now im going back again today...😢
My favorite thing she mentioned was the setting in which God met women verses how he met men in the Bible. He does have a tenderness in how he reaches out to us. You can expect him in the ordinary: at a table, waking up, moping the floor, folding the laundry, driving home. We don’t need to go far. He is just looking at the heart. He said, seek me with all of your heart and you will find me. Sometimes, all the strength we have to give is opening our eyes and keeping them open to wake up, and making the effort to pray. Like meeting us with breakfast in bed, he meets us there. We may not even know what to say, but he understands our heart turned to him. He understands speaking in tongues and it is said to strengthen us.
If im not a professional that goes out of the door and dressing up everyday, I would definitely choose to own less. It’s important for me to dress well at work which caused to me buy a lot of stuff 😢 i hope i can break this cycle 😢
My other favorite thing she said as that, as women, we live hurried lives. It is such a freedom to hear that shouldn’t be the case and that Jesus was never in a hurry. How can you love, if you are hurried? Having less on the schedule and less stuff to care for would help with that, but I think the take away is,” be focused on loving people, not focused on helping them necessarily be done in the quicker amount of time. Savor people God has given in my
life. Yes, don’t be a sloth, but stop long enough to really appreciate and hear people.” It’s about people, not the goal.
❤
I like that internal vs external environment comment! Nice! You don't have to be a theologian to talk about how God has spoken to you through his words. I actually do own an Anthropologie dress. I wear it to all the funerals and weddings I go to. I am sure people have noticed, but no one has said anything yet. It is simple and lovely and has lasted me several years now.
-JusticePirate
I know this isn’t relevant to this video. I just went to the last video I watched. I was wondering if you could tell me what you use to store your digital photos please? ❤
Oh my! I soooooooooooo need to stop hurrying. But how?
Any mamas here with chronic Lyme disease? Praying for healing and renewal of health and life abundant in Jesus! 🩵🙏
I have CFS. I pray we both recover ❤
I had chronic Lyme for decades since childhood…God has used so many avenues to help me heal, non more important than exiting survival mode!! I highly recommend TMS/mind body coaches like “Pain Free You with Dan” and “Thought by thought healing”. Both on TH-cam, they have been instrumental in my healing from Chronic Lyme and barrel full of other ailments (including migraines, fatigue, panic back pain & food allergies/sensitivity).
@@The_Apollo_Show is that a co-infection of Lyme?
@@michellecuneo2427 thank you so much for your kind reply. I’ve never heard of those before. I will check them out. What else has been helpful, do you feel like you’re in remission now? I go to see Dr. Vosloo Utah soon. I’m taking strong, herbal tinctures right now for trying and pain and pressing whatever I can to heal and put it into remission .
@@michellecuneo2427 I’m happy you’ve found ways to heal ❤️. Yes I did the ANS Rewire programme, along with medication and focussing on healing negative thought patterns, so valuable. I pray for a full recovery for you !
Treasures in the world are not as important as God himself. I'm so happy you have found your way home to the Lord.
How do I keep going to get down to the 10 item wardrobe when I love everything I have but know that I don’t really need all of that stuff?
Take you time with deciding what to keep. Do away the things that feels the least pleasurable, one by one.
As a minimalst, I trimmed it down to 1 item😂
