Hi! I’m Antonia. I’m so pleased you’ve found me and I hope you’ll grab a cup of tea or coffee and stay around a while!
You can read more about me here or stay on this page to see how I can help you…
IN A NUTSHELL…
I juggle work and family whilst hoping to inspire and help YOU through this website! Balancing it all isn’t easy but it is definitely possible if you stay focused on what’s important to you.
I’m a passionate advocate of the simple life – a life without clutter and where you’re intentional about what you let in and what you keep out.
I’m a problem-solving action-taker and don’t believe in letting life just pass me by and I don’t want you to either!
HOW I CAN HELP YOU
After years of juggling a hectic work schedule with raising a young family, I finally reached burn-out. Things needed to change and it was up to me to make that happen.
From decluttering my home to simplifying virtually every aspect of my life through a series of intentional and deliberate decisions, I’ve made things so much easier and simpler.
I set up this site to give you practical solutions to lighten your load and create a life that supports you and your family.
I believe that the power to make improvements and change your life lies within us all, if only we have the tools, encouragement and confidence to make those changes… and that’s what this site is all about.
WHERE DO YOU NEED HELP THE MOST?
We all have different struggles and challenges but I’m here to help you out with practical solutions and heaps of encouragement.
YOUR INTENTIONAL LIFE
Your Intentional Life is a completely free 7-day email course that will make you look at your life differently. I’ll show you how to create a life that supports YOU so you can focus on your purpose, priorities and the things that are most important to you without clutter and distraction.
WHAT TO FIND ON MY WEBSITE
My site is all about helping you find practical solutions to make your life easier and simpler so you can spend time on the things that you WANT to do, instead of just what you HAVE to do.
Here’s the kind of content you can find on my website and a great set of articles to get you started…
Decluttering
Home is where the heart is and it’s the first place most people start in their journey to a simpler life. The science backs it up that clutter = stress. When we’ve got too much clutter around us then we lose focus, get distracted and feel more stressed out.
Declutter your home and the stuff you no longer need or want and you’ll do much more than just create extra space. There’ll be less things to tidy up and clean and your home will be calmer, easier to look after and not such a burden on your time and energy. More time and energy for other things!
What to expect on my blog about decluttering…
- Why decluttering is so popular and how to get started
- How to declutter when you don’t have much time, the kids are always with you or your family aren’t on board
- Decluttering projects (big and small!)
- Decluttering challenges to keep you motivated
- Decluttering tips and tricks
- How to keep it up and keep your home clutter-free
Minimalism
Minimalism sometimes gets a bad wrap and I think this is because it’s often misunderstood. Minimalism can be about white walls and bare floors or throwing everything out and seeing if you can live with as little as possible, but there’s much more to it than this.
Minimalism is a lifestyle and way of thinking that encourages you to focus on what’s really important in your life. Do you really need all the stuff you buy at the shops? Do you really like being able to say you’re so busy and want a diary that’s so crammed full that you’ve got no free time? Minimalism is an approach to life that asks you to question your priorities. What will you and your kids remember in years to come?
What to expect on my blog about Minimalism…
- How Minimalism works for busy mothers with busy families
- The benefits of minimalism and why it can change your approach to life
- How decluttering and minimalism go hand-in-hand
- Practical, realistic ways for you and your family to try out Minimalist living
- That Minimalism is so much more than just trying to live with nothing!
Simple and Intentional Living
Simple living is where decluttering and minimalism all come together! After decluttering the home, using Minimalism to declutter the rest of your life (and keeping it that way!), living an intentionally simple life is (in my opinion!) the best life you can create for you and your family.
Simple doesn’t mean a life without, it just means a life that’s intentionally without the clutter that distracts. A simple life is full of the things that are important to us.
What to expect on my blog about simple living…
- Self care
- Getting organised
- Simplifying your calendar and managing your time
- Simplifying your family finances
- Personal development and mental health
- Intentional living
And just before you go…
Now you know a little bit more about what I’ve got to offer, I hope you’ll enjoy my site and what I write about. If you don’t think it’s for you, or you’re not in the right stage of life to make big changes, then that’s fine! I understand that simple living as a lifestyle isn’t a priority for everyone.
But, if you’re on the fence have a think about your life, what IS important to you and focus on that. If there’s one thing I’ve learnt in all of this, you need to be open to the possibility of change before you can make the changes for real! Good luck!
