MY COURSE
🌼SIMPLIFY TO THRIVE: declutter your home and get your life back🌼
✩use code: RU-vid for $50 off!!
SIMPLIFY TO THRIVE: simplifytothri...
In this 8-module course(go at your own pace), you will learn what you value most in life, get some tangible tips for shifting your mindset and seeing the good, and then we will declutter! If you want to make it stick and you truly want to simplify and slow down, you've got to use this strategy. A simple, beautiful and fulfilling life can be your reality, and I'd be honored to guide you there!
Here's what some of my clients have said:
"When I watched the intro videos before the modules, I actually started crying from a weight being lifted that I didn’t know was there. I had no idea how much I had been holding on to so tightly in my life emotionally and physically, and the toll it was taking. This course isn’t just about decluttering a closet or two. This course truly is designed to cleanse and reset the mental and physical. It breaks down so many lies that we have been told as women in our society. It gives you support and such great encouragement. I looked forward every day to logging on and doing my modules. It was a form of self-care. I honestly found that because of the financial investment, I was even more determined to take the course seriously and challenge myself. If you commit to this course you will walk away the best version of yourself.” - Ashley S.
" Everything you teach here is like healing water for my soul. I have hope that I don't have to constantly be fighting or living in a way that I hate. I can change, slowly, peacefully, and quietly. I can have a good life without the endless noise, and clutter of our current society. You have a spunky edge and offer a new way of approaching parenting and slow living that is not repulsive to the young person’s ear. I am so grateful to you.“ - Catie S.

Stressed and angry... that was me everyday, up until this year. I am in my mid twenties and when I found out I was pregnant with Baby No. 3 I threw out about 100 Bags of stuff. I am at home with three little ones and everyone thinks I am suffering and crazy. Meanwhile I love managing this cozy home and I live in my kids rhythms. This relaxed simplicity is what I think Jesus meant when he said we should become like children. Whenever god spoke to biblical women, he met them during their everyday tasks. Now I truly know that I am in my right place ❤ Greetings from Germany :)

Margaret, you are such a blessing. 💐 I recently felt the need to majorly downsize the RU-vid Channels I have been subscribed to (all of which are wonderful, inspiring channels that I will still return to often). I kept five: my home church's, a ballet workout channel, a channel that is no longer active but whose videos still greatly inspire me, a childhood favorite show that I still love watching because of the solid Christian message it gives (it's called "Gospel Bill"; your sweet boys would probably love it 🤠)...and you. ❤️ Something about you and your simple, straightforward, beautiful approach to life is just exactly what I am needing in this season. And I just wanted you to know that you made the cut. 😄 Thank you again for everything! God bless you, Sister! Proverbs 3:5 & 6 💖

I love your testimony so much. Thank you for being so vulnerable with us.❤️ totally unrelated, but would you be willing to do an updated makeup product inventory/routine?

I’m Muslim, but the message in this video rings so true to me. When I put God at the forefront of everything, I feel the blessings fill my days, my hours and my time with my children. I mean we pray 5 times a day. If I make a point to pray as soon as the time comes in, I feel peace come into everything I do. If I push it later due to being caught up with worldly things … I feel the stress creep up on me. At the same time I feel the more spiritually grounded I am, the happier my children are. And no matter whatever life throws at me, I try be content whether I have or not. The moment you’re not content and grateful, connection with God suffers, the desire for worldly things overshadows spirituality and the peace leaves.

I like your wholesome values and honesty. Despite the religious concepts and faith labeling we have the same mindset.

Love this! Faith is when doubt is removed. Leaning into your faith seemed to help you remove your doubt about what was next. Love the reminder!

I truly hear you, hear your advice, however I am not religious and it’s so hard to make the shift on my own without guidance. And then it came to me: YOU are my guidance and you have been brought into my life to help me with being more intentional. Thank you, Margaret. x

So touching, Claudia. Thanks for sharing this. Have a wonderful day ♥️

As I was listening to the beginning of your video, I thought: this lady needs the Lord more than anything else. I though, I hope she doesn’t come to the conclusion that minimalism will be her new god. And then, you said that it was the Lord who settled your mind and your heart. There is a book (written a very very long time ago) called The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment by Jerimiah Burroughs. It is not a book to sit down and read in one go but rather a book that should be read almost one page at a time and then the truths in it prayed over and time spent considering the scripture he uses. I would encourage you to have a look at it. Or another book that is not quite as dense but extremely (!) good is Pundit’s Folly by Sinclair Ferguson. In this book the author goes through the book of Ecclesiastes and how the author of that book tried everything- just like what you went through and found that only the Lord satisfies the desires of our heart. That is such an excellent book and much shorter and not written quite so long ago so a little less dense :) Anyway, I would highly recommend it. ♥️ I am a mom of 4 (my oldest is almost 18- eek! ) and missionary wife…. I say just so that you have a little context of where the above comments are coming from. 🥰

@jilloverton3630 День назад

I just wanted to say thank you for your videos. I am not a mother; however, I have been a kindergarten teacher for over 20 years. There are so many things in your videos that I can relate to. While I enjoy teaching, being married, being an active church, a friend, daughter, aunt, and sister, there are many times that I have found myself feeling overwhelmed, angry, and unhappy. I am gradually learning that having less possessions and less on my schedule, the happier and calmer I feel. Also, thank you for sharing so much about your faith. I am learning that through prayer and quiet time, I believe God strengthens all of us!

Wow, I needed this 🤍 Such a good reminder, bc the reality is, those same feelings creep up, they don’t just magically go away. It’s a constant effort, working on yourself. 😊
