What a treat today! Acclaimed engineering professor and author Leidy Klotz joins me on Paring Down to explore how our environments shape our lives more than we realize.
From decluttering to designing meaningful spaces, this conversation will change how you see both your home and your habits.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• Why we instinctively add instead of subtract (and how to train your brain to notice better solutions)
• How your environment is connected to “Self-Determination Theory," plus simple ways to design spaces that help you thrive
• Why nostalgia can’t be bought, how overconsumption disrupts it, and how to intentionally create meaningful memories in your spaces
This conversation is not only enlightening, but is deeply touching. I know it will change the way you see the world around you.
