Story
We all follow our own path in life. At least, that's what we're told. In reality, many of us either do what is expected of us, or follow the invisible but well-worn paths that lead to what is culturally acceptable. For some, those paths are fine - even great. But they leave some of us feeling disconnected from ourselves and what we really want. When that discomfort finally outweighs the fear of trying something new, we're ready to opt out.

By forcing us to apply a more selective criteria for what is Essential, the disciplined pursuit of less empowers us to reclaim control of our own choices about where to spend our precious time and energy - instead of giving others the implicit permission to choose for us. Essentialism is not one more thing - it’s a whole new way of doing everything. It’s about doing less, but better, in every area of our lives. Essentialism is a movement whose time has come.

In her late 20s, Cait Flanders found herself stuck in the consumerism cycle that grips so many of us: earn more, buy more, want more, rinse, repeat. Even after she worked her way out of nearly $30,000 of consumer debt, her old habits took hold again. When she realized that nothing she was doing or buying was making her happy - only keeping her from meeting her goals - she decided to set herself a challenge: she would not shop for an entire year. The Year of Less documents Cait's life for 12 months during which she bought only consumables.

We are often on a quest for more, giving in to pressure every day to work more, own more, and do more. For Courtney Carver, this constant striving had to come to a stop when she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Stress was like gasoline on the fire of her symptoms, and it became clear that she needed to root out the physical and psychological clutter that were the source of her debt and discontent. In this book, Carver shows us how to pursue practical minimalism so we can create more with less - more space, more time, and even more love.

Story
Most of us know we own too much stuff. We feel the weight and burden of our clutter, and we tire of cleaning and managing and organizing. While excess consumption leads to bigger houses, faster cars, fancier technology, and cluttered homes, it never brings happiness. Rather, it results in a desire for more. It redirects our greatest passions to things that can never fulfill, and it distracts us from the very lives we wish we were living. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Publisher's Summary
As another year unfolded, lifestyle blogger and mom of three Miranda Anderson realized she felt weighed down by the mass of belongings her family had been accumulating.
In an effort to pare down and cultivate a deeper sense of gratitude and abundance in their lives, she and her husband decided to embark on a minimalism challenge, where they would stop all unnecessary shopping for one year. It meant learning to use what they already had and being more creative.
"Less stuff, more adventure" became their mantra as they focused on gaining enriching family moments and seeking personal development. Life became about only choosing what truly matters and simply disregarding the rest.
With candid narrative of her experiences, insightful discussion of principles, and practical questions to answer, Miranda's journey will empower listeners to make small, impactful changes to live more intentionally and will show that whatever they have today can be more than enough.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Good Message but not well done
I like the overall idea and message behind the book but she repeated her self, contradicted herself, and it wasn’t well written and needed to be edited. I did not enjoy the narration. There are so many books on minimalist lifestyles. I would recommend picking a different one.

Love this book
This book is so uplifting and motivating. I love that she emphasized spending more time, effort and money on things that really matter, like time with loved ones, instead of stuff that clutters our homes. The authors voice is fun to listen to as well. I will probably have to listen to this book at least once a year because it’s that good.

I liked the idea of the book but most of it was just repetitive story about the houses they built and things they bought or didn’t buy. If you are looking for action steps, advice, or encouragement on how to simplify your life, this isn’t it.

Such a GREAT read!
I loved this book so much. It gave me such practical insight on how buying less stuff (within reason) opens doors for more adventure, memories, and opportunity. I’m familiar with Miranda’s work and have listened to her on her own podcast and other podcasts before, but I still learned so much from this book. Even though this isn’t the intent of her book, we decided to do the exact same challenge Miranda did for one year. We at the end of month one and I can already see how it’s positively influenced my family. Bonus: she is super easy to listen to and loved that SHE is reading her book, not some mechanical robotic voice.

Practical
I saw good and bad reviews on this, but the sample was intriguing enough to use a credit. I've read all of the books by The Minimalists, and enjoyed them for sure, but they aren't practical for now. I am the only person in our house interested in minimalism, and can't clear the clutter that doesn't belong to me, or prevent others from making purchases. While this book focuses on a family journey to not purchase the unnecessary for an entire year, I think its practical enough in practice that any one person could also take up the challenge for themselves as a personal goal in or out of a family unit. Is the information new? No. I think the value in the book comes from the narrative of the experience. Where this family did make decisions to purchase items that were maybe not necessary, but in fact were useful and perhaps needed for a thought out, non-impulsive reasoning. I also thought the way they handled this adult no spend with their young children was great, and its something you don't see in a lot of other books on the topic, or at least not to the same level as shared here. Well worth the listen.

Don’t bother
I bought this book hoping for some inspiration and continued motivation with my family not spending any money. I enjoyed the narrators voice, but she makes this book too whimsical-almost like it’s fiction and not self-help. She also goes on and on about not spending money but then talks about multiple instances where they did in fact spend money! By Chapter 16 I didn’t even want to finish this, but I figured there’s 90 minutes left so why not! Big mistake! Within 15 minutes she started talking about how that Christmas (the year of their challenge) they gifted their kids a trip to Italy for Christmas! Are you kidding me!?!? What an absolute joke!
