The Amazon app winks at us from our phones. (I just checked my Amazon spend over this past year and I am fairly horrified. I could have flown to Paris twice first class.)

 

We wander HomeGoods and TJ Maxx like treasure hunters on the prowl (guilty!). “Look at this deal on this throw pillow I didn’t even know I needed...!” Our carts overflow with must-haves, only to end up as clutter in our closets or in next year’s yard sale.​ It’s not just about overstuffed garages and junk drawers. All that consumption steals our peace, our time, our money, and it fuels waste that chokes our planet.

​

Good news — it doesn’t take a radical overhaul to change. Small, practical choices add up fast. And the payoff? More freedom, more joy, and a healthier Earth.
