Why did I start the Capsule Life podcast?

I truly have a wonderful life. I’m married to the best guy around, we’re puppy parents to the cutest bordoodle (that’s border collie-poodle), we live in a super fun city, and we’ve survived adulthood thus far (not an easy feat!). ;) But all that said, I still want more, but not in the way you might think.

I want to be more fulfilled and live out my life’s purpose, but for me that means starting with less. And building a life of less.

I’m on a journey to find joy through minimal living and if this podcast helps keep me committed to this journey and helps just one other person along the way, I’d say mission accomplished.

What is a Capsule Life?

Have you heard of a capsule wardrobe? You know, a small collection of clothes — we’re talking maybe 30 pieces max — that are simple and timeless enough to be put together in a multitude of ways?

THAT was the inspiration for This Capsule Life! I got to thinking about the actual definition of the word “capsule,” which is: consisting of a relatively small set of key items, and felt like it was a great representation of how I want to start living my life.

A Capsule Life is a life well-lived, a life filled with gratitude, connection, moments, and experiences rather than things. In a world where “more is more,” living a Capsule Life celebrates living a life of less.

What are our 4 Life of Less pillars?

On the Capsule Life podcast, each episode will explore 1 of our 4 main Life of Less Pillars: Living a Capsule Life, Living Well, Living Joyfully, and Living Your Dream.

  1. Living a Capsule Life: Living a life filled with gratitude, connection, moments, and experiences rather than things. Living a Capsule Life celebrates living a life of less.

  2. Living Well: Living Well means putting yourself FIRST. From yoga to meditation to natural solutions to overall wellness, our Living Well pillar gives you tips and tricks to put your self care first so you can lead with the best version of yourself.

  3. Living Joyfully: Living Joyfully means living with intention. In the Living Joyfully pillar, we dive into finding our purpose, living with gratitude and faith, and discovering how balance can show up in our lives.

  4. Living Your Dream: Living Your Dream means something different to everyone. In this pillar, we’re redefining what it means to ‘have it all,’ and chatting about career aspirations, entrepreneurship, and more.
