On this week’s episode, we sit down with Christine Platt. An award-winning author, lifestyle strategist, storyteller, and minimalist. You could just say she is a modern-day renaissance woman! If the idea of minimalism brings up visions of almost empty rooms, a neutral palette, and throwing away 95% of the things you own, then Christine is here to make you revisit that vision! She believes in a radical re-envisioning of what minimalism can be and do for our lives.

Amber and Christine talk through the inner work of resetting our value priorities and the intersections of mental health, well-being, and sustainability. Intersections that inform both our relationship to consumption and how we design the spaces we inhabit. Christine’s focus is on giving you real strategies to live full intentional authentic lives that go beyond the aesthetics of minimalism.
