Do you feel weighed down by clutter? Jessica Dunn, a realtor in Regina and a busy mom of two, had a life-altering moment one busy evening while trying to make supper. She realized there was no decent food in the fridge and started purging the expired food. She wondered why she was living like this when her kids were watching her dispose of all this food (and money). Why was she spending so much on food that was going bad? Discover how minimalism and decluttering can lighten the heaviness of motherhood. You don't have to do it alone; get the whole family involved.
