Your ”new” kitchen is stylish and warm, not old fashioned, not at all! And I really like to see you wearing the same clothes and using the same cup over and over.
I would love those cabinets! I like white but all white is too much. (I have four different colors of paint in my house but all the trim is white.) I also love the glass mug. I have a tall double-walled glass cup I use for tea at work; I like seeing my drink. (Fun thing to try: make tea in a glass cup, then carefully pour in some milk and don't touch it. It'll settle out into lighter and darker layers (I once got about 4 distinct layers). It's really neat.)
Wow this might be the video that hit me the deepest. I found myself nodding at every piece of advice you were giving us. I know the channel is about minimalism, but I would love to hear you talk more about parenting since I think you are an incredible mom to your kids without seemingly having to choose between parenting and productivity. Bless you guys!
I second this motion, I would also love to hear Marissa talk more about parenting -- her boys seem to get along quite well? How does she do it? It's like a WWE match in my house 😂
The last segment about radical responsibility was so moving! That Rumi quote is so inspirational. Thank you for sharing such sensitive information about your life growing up - please know your story is helping others.
I was in tears to hear u daily walked to ur parents grave before school...God! how much it matters to be around really long for ur kids...blessings be with u always
Deeply appreciate this thoughtful and personal video. We found such freedom several years ago by decluttering and downsizing our lives, but after my second son was born I just did not have the bandwidth to manage the deluge of items coming into our home. It's been weighing on me to re-start my decluttering habit and this was such a gentle but firm kick in the butt. I know you've been struggling yourself with change and I just wanted to share my appreciation for your authentic and down to earth videos. You're truly a gem among content creators and I hope to keep hearing more about your life in Chicago. Thank you!!!
I love your kitchen. It is not old-fashioned, but really classy. So much better than a regular white kitchen. I hope you will get used to it and in the end find yourself loving it.
@@AtoZenLife We kept the cupboards at our last house & updated the look with paint, a backsplash, counter tops & flooring. New cupboards are sooo very expensive 😮
Hi Marissa, From your father you have experienced a life of a collector and how it looks like, and from your experience we are learning how a minimalist’s life looks like. Thank you so much for creating this channel.
Hey, Marissa. Marissa here from Bama. I just quit my stressful 6 figure job and became a stay-at-home mom. I did the Dave Ramsey thing and became debt-free. It’s so much nicer being home for my sons when they get off the school bus. I had no idea that my free time is actual wealth, and not being chained to a 40+ hour a week job plus 10 hours of commuting to the city each week. Now, I take whatever little law cases I want, and focus on my athletics instead. I made the adult league hockey team and my first game is tonight. I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to be good enough to play if i hadn’t become a minimalist, careful with money, and dumped the awful law firm grinding job. The grind is overrated. Thanks for your inspiration! I’m literally in the kitchen about to bake pumpkin seeds from last night’s jack-o-lantern carving with the kids, watching your video while I work on the recipe. Happy Halloween!
I just wanted to point out that your new house is looking so lovely. The "outdated" wooden cabinets and doors look so warm and rich with your simple minimalist aesthetic. Love your videos. You are such an inspiration 💓
"Minimalism has opened my eyes to the fact that it doesn't matter how much stuff you have in your home or how nice your house is if the people living inside of it are miserable." Damn, that's a beautiful way to express that.
As someone who battled with addiction (3 years, 5 months and 5 days since my last drink) i totally get it ❤ the thing that hit me the hardest in the video is "no matter how full a house is if the ones living in it feel miserable" i totally was miserable at the end of my phd and am better now. I got rid of a lot of things and feel ways lighter since too ❤ i totally try to prioritise experience rather than purchases now!
I’m so sorry about your dad. I lost my mom when I was much older than that, 42, and all I could say was, I’m way too young to lose my mom. 😢 i also have no parents at all now. I so agree with your philosophy and love your videos.
I must say listening to your video is peaceful. Some people on TH-cam, etc talk way to fast and just listening creates stress or a rushed feeling. I remember a video where I think you said you majored in speech pathology. It paid off bc you speak calmly and measured. Thanks!!
You are an inspiration, thank you for sharing, when my mother died over a decade ago, my brother and I had so much stuff to clear from her home, after that it made me rethink my life and my approach to our consumerist society, finding your channel is a breath of fresh are and I'm sure will help me in future. All good wishes to you and you family
Hey Marissa, thank you for sharing the messages in this video. The message about radical responsibility really struck a chord with me after a lifetime of caring for a mentally ill parent, illness & loss. I really related to your jellyfish analogy and although I'm 50, I only realised relatively recently that no one is coming to save me, we need to give ourselves grace but take responsibility for managing our feelings and changing our lives for the better. We can't change the beginning of the story but we can work on making the rest of the chapters of our life as good as they can be ❤️
We have been conditioned to over consume bad food and other stuff is the reason there is so much stress, strife and ill will toward each other. It not only leads to weight imbalances and illness, we stress ourselves out trying to compete with others on matching or surpassing what our friends and neighbors have. It's a fever we need to break before it kills us
i have been folllowing for more than a year now, and as a girl in her early 20's, it has been most instructive. Every video that you share puts out a lil something to learn from that makes my life better. In the recent times I have become more mindful of what I buy, what I consume and what I give to the surroundings. I belevee you have a big role in that. Also, just wanted to mention you resemble your mother a lot :)
The cost to joy ratio is such a great point. I tend to fritter away little bits of money on things that don’t bring much joy in the long term, and then stress when my husband wants to spend money on a pricier item or experience that would actually improve our lives.
You and her both are completely wrong about this concept. Your small little things actually gives you the best Cost to Joy ratio, for only $5, you get some joy for a whole day. You only need $250 to feel happy all year around. But if you blow $2500 on pricier item, the bit more joy would only last for a few weeks or months, or sometimes just a few days of rush, that's very bad Cost to Joy ratio. One trick you can do is you buy for the rush of that expensive item and your husband return it without you knowing, that way you get 0 cost for the joy.
So sorry about your daddy 😔 hate addiction. Dealing with that with my brother, as well, hubs dad ultimately died from drinking for too many years (cirrhosis of liver). Just sad. These are great tips!!! And love that sunroom ☀️ 🌿 beautiful. Peaceful. God bless y’all.
I think some people hold on to things because they have lost so much and it's a way of not losing something because loss hurts so much. That's how it is with my mom. I learned a long time ago that the more I own, the more I struggle with decision making. As a late diagnosed ADHD girl, I already struggle, so I don't need more choices to make things that much harder. Plus, the less I have, the less guilty I feel buying something. 😉 It makes purchases even nicer.
Your message about radical responsibility sticks out to me. Though i have not suffered as much, I often feel like i am a jellyfish floating through life. I am working to change that. I can’t wait to see an updated home tour. Your house is such a dream !
Taking radical responsibility is the key to having a life you enjoy. Better late than never and thanks for the reminder. Also your home is looking great.
Your kitchen is gorgeous and will never be out of date. The entire home is so exquisite and spacious, from what I can see in videos, and is lucky to have people to enhance the beauty and not drown it in stuff (like I would have done).
Great video. I can relate to all of your points made. When one is stuck in the wheel of consumerism, nothing is ever enough… When I finally chose contentment and happiness I started to feel free. 🌸🌸🌸 Love your house by the way! It looks warm and calm 🌾🍂🌾
I sold my house and moved into a motor home, I thought I had decluttered a lot , after a few alterations on the motor home we weighed it and it was 300 Kgs over weight,😱. I have since taken a heat out including one heavy drawer under the bed and extra cords and hoses and containers from under the bed. 100 kgs lighter, I’m slowly decluttering the interior of the van , 2 kgs of clothes and a bamboo drawer divider going today, I am using up the water and this in total will be another 100 kgs
What a great video! Thank you for always being open and vulnerable with your audience. I have learned so much from your videos and your Clutter GPS course!
Yes! I must say, the boldness to be so exposed and truthful (referring to the stories about the loss of parents) surprised, amazed and touched me. 😥💞 I felt the presenter more relatable and human, genuinely speaking from (difficult) experience. 🙁😥😞💔🤗
You really outdid yourself with this episode! So informative, enlightening and totally applicable to so many of us at this time. Watching this feels like being thrown a life preserver at a desperate time. Thanks so much for all the thought, research, planning and hard work that you put into this!
Money is not an issue for me but I envy your empty tables, I am surrounded by thousand of small items that I supposedly need or may need in the future.
@@AtoZenLife I've done it, inspired by your videos, two years ago. I threw out 4x 200l trash bags from my single room apartment. It will be much easier now, last time it took me 4 days to assess each thing.
I'm just starting my minimalism journey and find your videos so helpful. I'm looking forward to being less tied down due to the amount of stuff I have, so I have greater freedom to move around and if anything unexpected were to happen I have less to panic about finding storage space for. Don't suppose you could share the recipe for the sweetcorn soup you showed at 3:50? It looks absolutely delicious 😍
Marissa you are a favorite of mine! I am trying to be a good steward of the gifts I have been given. This video is such a great reminder to be mindful and responsible in my consumerism! ❤
Thank you Marissa for another great video. Very helpful points. I love your new home, and I look forward to seeing more about how you have decorated it.😊
Thank you so much for this one! There should be a required class in schools to counteract all the retail that is constantly stuffed down our throats! The US is too stuff/spend mentality. So again, THANK YOU! ❤🎉❤🎉😊
“Our family has the peace of living debt free”. This is SO true. Thanks to my husband being very frugal and careful with spending, we don’t have the latest car or brand clothes, but our family have peace. And you definitely cannot put a price on that. Thank you for your content, I love all your videos ♥️🙏🏼
Wow, I found this video deeply inspiring in so many ways. I also lost my dad to alcoholism when I was 23. Thank you so much for bravely sharing your heart and your story. ❤❤❤
Szeretem a csatornádat. Olyan okos gondolatokat fogalmazol meg, amit igyekszem megtanulni és alkalmazni. Egyre több dolgot szeretnék elengedni, te sokat segítesz ebben. 😊

I hope to pass this to my children and even my family. Have a bless week. 😁❤️🙏❤️
Do you have any links of where you got your desk and desk chair from? they’re so beautiful. Been working from home and don’t have any office space or comfortable sitting area for it. Appreciate it :)
This video wasn't;t what I expected and I'm so glad I watched. Very good and humble advice. I've enjoyed your channel for years and I'm enjoying the glimpses or your new home. This video gave me some new things to think on in our own Minimalism journey years sixths. =)

"Look around. All that clutter used to be money. All that money used to be time." This hit hard! ❤
Definitely agree
Your ”new” kitchen is stylish and warm, not old fashioned, not at all!
And I really like to see you wearing the same clothes and using the same cup over and over.

This video wasn't;t what I expected and I'm so glad I watched. Very good and humble advice. I've enjoyed your channel for years and I'm enjoying the glimpses or your new home. This video gave me some new things to think on in our own Minimalism journey years sixths. =)
Congratulations on six years and thanks so much for watching-always happy to have you here 🙏☺️
Your living room has a very beautiful space and a very natural view. Great for relaxing
Thank you for this video. This means a lot for me
This was beautiful, thank you.
I love your kitchen!
Would love to see another home tour now that you have furnished it!!!
It’s only partially furnished, because we’re taking things slow. That’s why I’ve been holding off on the tour…to be continued 😉
Hi. I resonate with lot of what you shared here. It is a good video. Keep doing what you are doing
I love the subtle nod to Seasons of Love in the intro 😉
i love the style of your home x
Frugal living is smart. I'll be 44 in January.
