Review: When Less Becomes More by Emily Ley

Publication Date: November 12, 2019

"In a world of constant comparison, it's easy to believe we aren't measuring up to everyone else- that our children aren't as well behaved, that our clothes and cars aren't as current, that our homes aren't perfect enough, that our incomes are lacking, or that our aspirations as women and as a family aren't as sparkly or big enough."

What a lovely book! 🥰 I've read Emily's other books and love the truth she speaks in all of them. 🙌🏻 I'm always intrigued by the idea of practical minimalism...that less truly is more but that doesn't mean our houses need to be perfectly clean and boring. Emily provides several different aspects of life where we are running ourselves to the ground (commitments, social media, work, to name a few) and offers ways we can take a step back and simply SLOW DOWN. Being super busy is overrated if you ask me and I loved so much of what Emily wrote about how and why we should stop overwhelming ourselves. Definitely recommend this one!
