    Hey there, friend! This week on The Maximized Minimalist Podcast, we’re diving into something I KNOW so many of us deal with—scarcity mindset and emotional spending. And to help us unpack it all, I brought on financial expert and author Brie Sedano. Let me tell you—this convo is packed with golden nuggets that’ll leave you thinking, Wait, how did she get in my head? We’re talking about why scarcity isn’t just in your mind (spoiler alert: it’s also in your body!), how it triggers some not-so-great spending habits, and what you can do about it. Plus, Brie’s new book, Cash Confident: Practical Money Management for the Modern Woman, is a total game-changer. Think of it as your step-by-step guide to ditching money guilt and building systems that actually work for YOU. And oh, the stories we share—like, who knew scarcity mindset could show up as hoarding granola bars or buying one more lipstick you’ll never wear? If you’re ready to get real about money without the shame or judgment, this episode is for you. Here’s What You’ll Learn: Why scarcity mindset isn’t just in your head—and how it hijacks your decision-making. The surprising connection between emotional spending and self-worth. Why you don’t need a budget (yes, really) and what to do instead. How to tune into your body’s cues to avoid WTF money moves. The secret to letting go of money guilt—and actually enjoying what you buy.

    279: Creating a Functional, Organized Kitchen with Allison Schaaf

    Let’s talk about the one place in your house that can either make your day a total breeze or an absolute disaster: the kitchen. If your kitchen looks more like a chaotic war zone than a functional workspace, it’s time for a little intervention. Today, Katie sits down with chef and dietitian Allison Schaaf to help you whip your kitchen into shape—think less clutter, more calm. Allison drops some major wisdom on why less is actually more when it comes to kitchen tools, how to organize your space like a pro, and even how to get your kids to help out without them turning it into a circus.

So, whether you’re cooking for your fam or just trying to find a spatula in the abyss of your utensil drawer, this episode has you covered. Key Takeaways: Smaller Kitchens > Bigger Kitchens: Wait, what? Yep. Allison explains why having a teeny tiny kitchen can actually make your life easier. No more walking 50 miles between your stove and fridge just to make dinner. Declutter Your Drawers, Save Your Sanity: Do you have three potato peelers but only use one? It’s time for a drawer detox. Learn how cutting down on kitchen gadgets can make cooking faster and (dare we say) more enjoyable. How to Set Up Your Kitchen Like a Pro: Want to stop running around like a headless chicken every time you cook? Allison shares the exact spots to store your essentials to make meal prep a breeze. Get Your Kids Involved—Without Losing Your Mind: Allison’s genius tips for getting your kids to help in the kitchen without turning it into a food fight. (Hint: It’s all about making things easy for them. And for you.) Holiday Meal Prep, Simplified: We all want to be Martha Stewart, but we also don’t want to spend six hours making a gingerbread house from scratch. Allison’s advice? Pick your favorite traditions and let the rest go. Your future self will thank you. Episode Highlights: [00:01] Katie kicks off the episode with a reality check: if your kitchen’s a mess, so is your life. [00:29] Allison Schaaf joins the party, sharing her experience as a personal chef and why big kitchens can be totally inefficient.

Allison’s no-BS guide to streamlining your kitchen tools. [10:45] How to make your kids help in the kitchen—and not in that “Here’s a mess for you to clean up later” kind of way.

    Managing Holiday Overwhelm Stress-Relief Strategies for Parents with Caley Kukla

    The holiday season is here – and with it, the stress that can sneak up when we’re trying to make everything magical. In this episode, I’m bringing back parenting expert Caley Kukla to chat all things holiday sanity. If you’re already feeling the overwhelm of balancing family traditions, schedules, and self-care that actually helps, this one’s for you.

Tradition Tweaks 🎉: I share my own story of learning to let go of a “perfect” holiday tradition when it wasn’t clicking with my kids. Caley and I chat about ways to keep traditions meaningful and intentional, even if they look a little different. Overcoming Overwhelm 💆‍♀️: We talk about why tuning into our own needs first can transform family gatherings, make us less reactive, and help us show up as the calm, connected parents we want to be. Memorable Moments: My Tree Decorating Reality Check: I share the story of my high hopes for a picture-perfect tree-decorating night…and how it actually went down when my kids weren’t exactly on board. Caley’s “Gruffalo Crumble” Tradition: Caley shares her heartwarming story about turning a nostalgic family dish into a holiday staple with a kid-friendly twist. “Rhythm Over Routine” for the Holidays: Caley’s advice on balancing holiday busyness with downtime so you and the family stay refreshed (instead of frazzled). Your Holiday Takeaway: This episode is packed with insights you can use today – like creating a “stress-release list” to stay grounded, and taking just a few minutes to meet your own basic needs during a busy day. The holidays don’t have to be chaotic. Let’s make them exactly what we want them to be – simple, intentional, and full of moments that matter.
