About this listen

Drowning in tides of toys, overflowing closets, and a crazy schedule, Rachelle Crawford assumed you had to be naturally organized to keep a tidy living space. Then she found minimalism: the messy, real-life kind, that is less about perfection and more about purpose. Thus began a journey toward decluttering her home, calendar, and soul.

With empathy, grace, and humor, Crawford - who curates the popular Abundant Life with Less site - shares doable ways to own less and live more fully. Laying out practical strategies for reducing waste, curbing consumption, decluttering, and finding lots more joy, Crawford offers no-nonsense solutions for the rest of us. Learn to become a more conscious consumer, create a capsule wardrobe, inspire family members to join you, free up more time for the things that matter, and create a tidy(ish) home. The messy minimalist way is a no-judgment zone, one in which we learn sustainable habits and grace-based practices. It's about living lightly on the earth and making room for purpose.

Becoming a messy minimalist is not about turning into someone else; it's about clearing away clutter and expectations to unearth who you really are. It's about carrying fewer things so that we find ourselves holding onto what truly matters.

Wasn’t sure I needed another book on decluttering/ minimalism ( ironic, right?) but this one had me hooked from the first sentence with her warmth, realism and self-depreciating humour. Other minimalism books have felt unattainable,but this author has made me feel I just might manage “ messy minimalism”. And it’s worth the effort as she so brilliantly describes.
I personally found the mention of her faith helpful to pinpoint why I want to do this. But she’s not at all preachy or smug, ( and she’s laugh out loud funny) so if you’re not a Christian, fear not- there’s plenty of practical advice, motivation and encouragement to start to think, act and be an imperfect minimalist, even in the middle of the mess of life. This book is a gem.
