    Why I left Youtube (I’m back now)

    20 September 2023 /

    Over a year ago, I excitedly started up a Youtube channel where I would talk about minimalism and decluttering. However, about six videos in, my dad got severely ill and I stopped. I talk more about that, here, in my new video. I will be posting more content to my channel in the future, where I will talk more about the minimalist lifestyle, and related content (and I’ll definitely be working on my Youtube skills going forward!) It’s going to be an interesting, exciting endeavour, and I look forward to the journey ahead.

    The Meaning of Stuff – Starting from Scratch

    11 April 2023 /

    Photo by Lina Trochez on Unsplash During the Easter holiday I decided to take on some decluttering which I’d been putting off for ages. Life got in the way and by the time I got some much-needed time off work, I noticed that things had built up around me. Impulse purchases I made to deal with the grief of losing my dad, and stuff that even as a minimalist I hadn’t been able to let go of for years. To give you an update on my life situation, my mum has moved out and currently, our home is undergoing huge renovations including plastering, ceiling skimming, installing new electrical points, ripping…

    Decluttering My Shed the Minimalist Way

    25 February 2023 /

    Before you read this post, I would like to warn you that although it is about decluttering my shed, it also touches upon the grief of losing a parent (my dad). If you’re okay with that, or would even find some comfort in it, go ahead. Like attics and garages, the shed is often one of the most cluttered, and the most forgotten. Sheds are generally used to store gardening tools and equipment, but over time, these places tend to become a catch-all for things you were too tired to put away, things you weren’t sure about, things you got in a sale, holiday decor, bins and shelves from past…

    The Truth About Grief and Loss

    6 January 2023 /

    Warning: potential grief triggers! Grief is a touchy subject. Not only is it a deeply personal and unique journey for everyone, it’s hard to confront and to talk about. It’s hard to read about too. But since I’ve been through my fair share of loss, the latest being my dad, I’m going to talk about it right here right now.  I know it’s hard just reading about loss because I’ve spent countless hours over the years looking up a ‘cure’ to take away the gut-wrenching heartache, only to realise time and again that all there is is time and whatever beliefs and experiences we hold. There is no secret cure…

    Mourning a Loss: Why I’ve Taken a Break

    10 December 2022 /

    Before reading ahead, please know that article may be a potential grief trigger.  Usually, at this time of year I would be writing articles on having a minimalist Christmas, or why I don’t bother with New Year’s resolutions. Instead, I’ve been taking a break because last month I found myself dealing with something which still feels like a nightmare: the loss of my dad aged 74.  Dad had been in and out of the hospital with low oxygen, and the last time he went in we were all expecting him to be treated and discharged like the times before. He’d not long received diagnosis of COPD; a progressive disease of…
