What was your favorite tip? Let me know in the comments section! Skip to 4:44 for the habit list, and most important please don’t think I am an expert at all of these things I’m just sharing as I learn. I’ve officially found the idea of minimalism six years ago and though that the ideas of intentional living and it’s been one of the most beneficial tools I’ve used in my life.

For my current lifestyle, it’s to only own things I love and need + have everything I own fit in my car (minus my couch and mattress) so I can move easily.

I love your quote, "it doesn't matter if you're drowning in 2 feet of water or 20. You're still drowning." It's important to realize that sadness happens to people in many different situations and you're allowed to be sad even if others have it worse than you. Suffering Olympics don't help anyone.
Your shirt color looks very nice on you honey. ☺️👍

flufftronable yessss I’ve had a top faced pallet since 2016 and it was so hard for me to put it in the trash. It was waaaay expired.
My favourite was : "It doesn't matter if you're drowning in 20 feet of water or 2 feet of water, you're still drowning." Whenever something seems unfair or something bad happens, I'm always told and I tell myself too that there are people worse off and there is. But we have to look after ourselves too. Otherwise we won't be able to look after others. Even if the problem seems small if it's got us all up in anxiety, we should deal with it. And not dismiss it as being not big enough. Fix what we can and keep working at it. It's not only the big problems that need fixing. Just like small acts of kindness can make a person's day. If we can't do a big lot, at least do a little each day.
“Radically and intimately myself”. I flipping love this. I’m going to put it in my bullet journal as the focus for my bucket list for this year.
You are my fantasy self. No but really, your content is very thought-provoking and has helped me become more fufilled. I am so happy to have found your channel.
I really needed this. My parents are finally divorcing and we're moving out next week. In a few days I have a TEAS exam for nursing school. And then on the 14th my last 17 unit semester starts. There's so much change right now, but I'm going to use this video to get my life in control to the best of my ability. Wish me luck 😩❤️

I am starting to realize how much stuff we hold on to. How much society has convinced us we NEED these unscrupulous items in our lives to fit in and be happy. Your videos along with my own research has taught me how to slow down and not buy things just for vanity and for the sake of ownership. It feels good to cut down and rid of things that hold zero value. Thanks for your channel, I hope you will be filming videos and uploading from my motherland India. ❤️ Safe travels!

FYI Taste buds change overtime. Up until 3 years ago the thought of olives made me gag. Now I can’t get enough of them. No telling what I’ll be eating when I turn 40 in a few years🤦🏾♀️
I love how you say that you bought something you shouldn't have and you kinda "regret" it, or that you need to get better at some aspect of the minimalist life. It's such a positive thing to hear as someone who is just now starting to get into all of this! So many people in the minimalist community act as if buying stuff impulsively or not being an 100%, certified minimalist is a huge crime and it takes away my motivation because I feel like a failure from the start. Seeing you "struggling" with some things even though you already are a minimalist encourages me a lot!
Thanks Janell! My mom passed away on the 17th of December. And I’m trying to start this year on a better note. I love your videos a channel. Don’t ever change! I aspire to be like you soon. All the best! :)

I enjoy your advice very much. Thank you! I live at home for another year before graduation from college. My mindset isn’t the same as my loved ones, and it’s reassuring to hear such positive affirmations. So happy to hear you are going to India! Such a beautiful country, my visit was life changing. There is such a different essence to the way of life there. ❤️
Your videos make me feel so safe and calm! 🖤 This is very inspiring, I’m going to note these down :’)
I took your advice and got rid of my duvet and asked for a nice comforter for Christmas. It's a little thing but it makes cleaning my bedroom so much easier! I got rid of the top sheet a long time ago. I do have to say, finding a tailor to fix some clothes is something that seems like a pain, but it turned so so clothes into clothes that I know I will have for life.

I've done it twice for coats and it was great its just I always put it off and it never ends up happening for repairs :/
I love the advice on sentimental items that aren’t really sentimental! For me, that would be gifts I was given by people who are no longer in my life. For instance, I was given a stuffed bear by an ex, and while I hated looking at it all the time, I felt badly about getting rid of it. Finally, I donated it, and I feel happier in my own home.
Janell, you've inspired me to go into healthcare. Much love to you and your journey. I thought that since I suffer from mental disorders and disabilities I wouldn't be able to help other people, but you're so open about your mental health and how you've struggled with it that I'm casting my self doubt aside and am striving to do what I've wanted to do -- which was help people. Thank you.
Enjoyed that Kardashian shade🗣
So on point: I have just ended some long-standing conditional friendships, this is led to a decluttering and redcorating. Feels so liberating and good to be compassionate towards my 'selves" and to step gently into authenticity. Thank you Janell, beautiful.
I am so grateful for your videos. You reinforce all the truths I am trying to live. You are a positive influence in my, and many others' lives xx
Your videos always inspire me to DO SOMETHING, whether it’s a small task in my home, or a topic or problem I’ve been avoiding thinking about, or a lifestyle change. Thank you for sharing with us. It’s appreciated.
Declutter fear-that’s the energy 2019 needs
I love the way you talk about boundaries and values, this is something I have worked with in 2018 and will continue with 2019. Great video, especially the part with decluttering non-physical things.
Thank you so much for helping me start on minimalist journey. I love your energy and warm positive vibes I get from your videos. Your space is so zen I love it.
Im watching this again periodically, thanks

I like the last point of how it doesn’t have to be hustle hustle all the time I feel like I push myself often to try to fit into that mindset because my struggles with adhd often slow me down, and people around me push that all the time, so that’s really nice to hear and something I really need especially for someone with constant sensory overload
Man your videos are helpful , I’m so grateful for what you offer; coolest character
i took my time writing those list on my journal. i know it will help me visiting those insightful things in the future. once again, thx Janell ♡
Your motto is also pretty much mine for the new year: being comfortable being my authentic self :) Best of luck!
Beautiful, especially the non-physical ones!
So cute! Thank you so much! 🥰
I seriously valued everything you said in this video. I could learn a lot from it too. What i relate to rn is with hustling day in and day out. I think it’s okay to not have everyday filled with activities or work all the time. My work is usually driven by saving for more traveling and savings in general but I like to have my me time. Looking forward to more content; you’re definitely one of my top favourites on KZread 😊

This video is so thoughtful, thanks so much for your advice and insight ❤️❤️ will definitely apply these things to my life
Very inspirational and educational. Great tips and great video.
been paying attention to you and marie kondo’s work lately and it’s been very helpful to me before my cross-country move and trying to decide what to keep:) another thing you didnt mention here tho is making your own food!!!! the comparison salsa and pasta sauce you showed for a second can easily be perfectly made in 15 minutes each, and i personally feel a lot better knowing exactly what i’m putting into my body rather than a whole bunch of preservatives and unidentifiable chemicals. same with bread, soup, etc. it’s a lot easier to get involved with what you eat than everyone seems to think it is
