300: Behind the Microphone - Getting Vulnerable and Celebrating 300 Episodes and 8 Years of Minimalish!

Author: Cloud10 August 13, 2026 Duration: 44:28
Today I'm bringing you an episode unlike our typical episodes here on minimal-ish. For our 300 episode celebration, I wanted to bring you behind the microphone and just share a little more vulnerably about the podcast journey that has spanned the last 8 years. Here's what you'll find: -The actual journey of the podcast: how it started, name changes, my own creative changes along the way. -Why minimalism is still meaningful all these years later. -Three big struggles I've encountered with podcasting. -Four memorable moments from the past 8 years of podcasting. This may be my most candid/ most vulnerable chat yet, so I hope you will sit down with your favorite drink (or do your dishes or take a walk or whatever it is you are doing) and enjoy listening in. Most of all, thank you for being here, whether it is your first episode or you've been listening for years. I'm beyond grateful for you! Learn more about your ad choices.

Hosted by Desirae Endres, Minimal-ish: Minimalism, Intentional Living, Motherhood explores what it means to carve out a purposeful life when your days are full of family, responsibilities, and the constant clutter of modern living. This isn't about stark white walls or counting possessions, but a practical, compassionate conversation for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the noise. Each episode feels like a thoughtful chat with a friend who gets it, tackling the real-world application of minimalist principles within the beautiful chaos of parenting, work, and personal growth. You'll hear honest discussions about managing a household budget with intention, finding moments for self-care without guilt, and redefining what "enough" means for your family. The podcast digs into how these ideas shape our relationships with our kids, our partners, and our own sense of self, moving beyond theory into the lived experience. It’s for those who love the idea of living with less but need a flexible, realistic approach that makes room for sippy cups and sentimental mess. Tune in for a grounded perspective that values progress over perfection, offering actionable ideas and genuine encouragement for your own journey. This is a space where intentional living meets the everyday, acknowledging that a meaningful life is often beautifully minimal-ish.
