    The Art and Science of Disney Adulting

    Your Something Larger can be anything. Even Captain Phasma. And especially Chewbacca. Time for a little escapism this week. Not a Disney fan? It’s OK. It all maps out to ventral spaces, Polyvagal Theory and accessibility, too. Content warning for a tragic but not graphic story of an accident at the resort from about 53 - 56 min.

    Goals 101: Why Amelia Failed No Buy Low Buy

    Let’s talk about what makes a good goal. Amelia kind of biffed on No Buy Low Buy, but in the service of owning enough clothing to leave the house without looking like a hobo. Maybe it’s OK to not be a minimalist in all things?  Definitely stick around to the VERY end.

    Introduction to Decluttering and Cozy Spaces

    You probably have too much stuff. Most of us have too much stuff. And that’s not even taking into account the emotions we feel about having too much stuff. Luckily, Emily has done the research. Let’s make your space more ventral. Links: Saturn Ion (Wikipedia) FSP 2025 Season 2, Episode 4: Polyvagal 101 Freshwave (the stuff in the buckets) Dana K.
