Thank you so much for listening and could I ask a favor? Would you mind subscribing? It helps RUclips recommend this podcast to more friends. Thank you! Dawn
Really enjoyed this. I have put in a lot of hard work the last few months with decluttering but I can't shift the sentimental items (which are A LOT) what can you suggest that could help me to downsize the amount of keepsakes that I have. Thank you
Don’t say that!! I thought the same but then was able to meet her in MD and it was sooooooooo COOL!! She probably thought I was a little cray cray, I could barely tell her my name when I met her because I was crying. She has helped me so Much. Keep it on your heart to meet her in person and it just might happen👍😊
I want to show her what I have done in my home, haha! I live in an apartment with a family of 5. She has helped me SO much!! Would be SO cool to meet her! Sometimes I daydream about working for her someday, haha. If she had a group program to host, I would totally do it out here in Utah!!
I never comment on videos but this has been one of my favorite that she has done! It’s just so real and I love that she is open about her faith. She has changed my life in such a positive way!
I’d love to hear how you met and decided to work with Cas and Dana. It’s such a fantastic collaboration and the warmth between you all is lovely. What’s your origin story?
Hi! On Thursday I will be 79 and the only reason I mention it is because it’s never too late to declutter and become a minimalist. Your videos have been immeasurably helpful for me on my journey. You are a delight to listen to. Many thanks.
I love your youtube! I am a 66 year old wife, mother and grandma and I am still trying to become more efficient in my house,..you and Cass the clutterbig are such an encouragement to me! Thanks!!
Just found your channel Dawn a few months ago in a time when I was feeling overwhelmed. I watched "Your stuff is making you sick" and I just sat there in awe and cried. At that moment, I felt like you were speaking directly to me.. and i realized all of my anxiety over the last year was stemming from and excess of STUFF. I was tired of managing it all, and when you said that every item is telling you something (clean this, put that up, paint this, build that) I looked around my house with new eyes and thought "We have WAY too much and I'm simply DONE with managing it all!" There's 2 of us (weren't able to have children but we have a niece and nephew that come stay with us often) and we have 3 FULL sets of dishes, we have decor that I've never liked, we have triplicates of tons random things like emergency car blankets (not in the car btw but in our laundry room 🙄🤣). And this truly is the first time I'm making the connection between my anxiety/depression and the sheer volume of THINGS we have! Thank you Dawn for your amazing content 🧡 I am genuinely blessed to have come across your channel!
New Subcriber from TN. I have learned so much from you and other channels. We became Debt Free in 2020. We started deculttering in 2018. We sold and threw away so much STUFF. We are still doing it. I was able to retire from being a Hairdresser after 33 years. With 1 income, we are actually saving money now. Thank you so much! Rhonda 💚👩🏼🌾💚
You've really helped me for years Dawn, so grateful you're here. I've been decluttering for a few years now, but its not until this past fortnight when we moved furniture out of our lounge to put new carpet down that I realised (and my family) that we love just having space!
Hi Dawn I really love your RUclips channel. You speak eloquently and have a comforting, calming voice. I have tried so many ways to simplify my life and you are the only one who has literally saved me from drowning.❤ 🙏🏽thank you so much words cannot explain how grateful I am for your existence ❤️❤️
Love you and your message! You are one of my biggest role models and your advice has made a huge impact on my current state of mind. Honestly I'm so happy to have found this community!
Hi Dawn I have been a fan for some time and I so happy that I found you! I look forward to your new content and have learned so much in my journey to Mininimalism!!
I’ve listened to you for at least a couple of years now. My home and my attitude about stuff is far different. I can’t even tell you! I cannot tell you how inspiring you are to us! ❤❤❤
Thank you Dawn. Our home is starting the same way, just an experiment and leaving my husbands things alone. It felt so good to see two years of work lead to a clean up free evening 😂
I was so fortunate that RUclips shared your decluttering kids clothes with me when you only had a handful of videos posted. And I remember thinking “oh I hope she keeps these videos coming!” I honestly bragged about you to my husband that night because I was so excited about what I had learned and I felt like if a fellow Midwestern mom of young kids is saying it works for her I believe her when she says it can work for me. You’re down to earth, not Pinterest perfect everything, was so refreshing to see I waited so anxiously for your next videos! I was already attempting minimalism before I “met” you but your videos were the perfect blend of encouragement and guidance to keep me going!
Liked and subscribed! ❤ Very excited that you are posting podcasts on RUclips which is my go-to. I started watching your videos in 2019, and was hooked! I went back at that time and caught up from the very first ones on RUclips. I agree with others that you seem like a friend, and you have inspired and helped me so much along this decluttering journey! I remember when you celebrated 100,000 viewers! You are changing the world, both from a decluttering standpoint as well as by raising money for worthy causes, and you deserve all the good things that come to you and your family. As you say, I love you! ❤
Dawn, I have watched you since the beginning. I had 4 kids then, I’m now pregnant with our 9th. You have helped me realize I’m just managing to much stuff. I have decided that this is the year that we become a large family minimalist family. 😂 it feels very overwhelming but I watch your videos everyday. You are such a blessing. Thank you.
I’ve watched your for a long time just thought I’d come back to this one. I’m starting my own channel and really enjoy the tone you have in your videos… your real to who you are
I just love you Dawn! 2 years ago, after watching you, I decluttered and brought 35 LOADS to the 2nd hand store while getting ready to move. What a relief that was. And we’ve missed so FEW of the items! We don’t have a good set of 2nd hand stores in my new area #northernarizona but I think I need to do another declutter again! There IS so much stuff available. Thanks for all your encouragement. ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Dawn I’ve been following you for years and I always look forward to seeing you on you tube. Your content motivates me every time and you are the kindest. Love from Normandy France
My husband asked what I was watching. I told him I'm listening to a lady that talks about minimalism. He laughed and held up his hands we are already minimal 😆 I said yes because of Dawn!! I have been watching your videos for over 3 years. Thanks for all that you do.
Hi Dawn, I found your videos during Covid and you have changed my life. As a stay at home mom of 3, you have helped me get a handle on our stuff and be able to keep up on our stuff. Now 3 yrs later I can still find bags of stuff to donate but think more about my purchases and love that I can get my home tidy in a few minutes now. Thank you for all the work you do and content you share. ❤
When i think back to the days before I discovered your channel I was constantly rearranging and organizing all my stuff in a very small house with 3 boys and all their stuff. It never occurred to me that I could actually get rid of stuff. The first load to the donation center was liberating. I can’t thank you enough. 🥰
Dawn, I subscribed to your channel 3 years ago, and since then, you’ve taught me so much. My home functions better now, and my husband loves it! He’s the first to fill a box with things he no longer wants and donates it without thinking twice about it. Thank you for putting out such great content! It’s like cleaning and decluttering with a friend by my side. Thank you!! 🥰
Once I got the ball rolling, decluttering has been worth every minute I have spent doing it! The almost empty nest has helped, but having the resources of my favourite RUclipsrs has normalized the whole process. I have learned Getting junk out and not bringing it in are equally important. Thank you for all of your encouragement.😊❤🙏
I just love your warm and helpful visits with us! I feel like I’m sitting down with a dear friend each time I watch and listen to your videos. I look forward to your videos and receive so much help and good ideas. Thank you!
Retired teacher here...Dawn, I've been following you on RUclips for 3 years now. I started the decluttering process back then, and I'm amazed at the difference. But I find that there is still more I can do. Thanks for inspiring me.
Dawn is a national treasure and if someone takes the time to leave a negative comment, it shows they’re miserable! You have truly helped me take back control of my house and have more peaceful moments with my two young kids, it’s been about 6 months since I stumbled upon your channel looking for help and we’ve gotten rid of SO MUCH STUFF!!! Idk if you’ll see the is comment but THANK YOU!!
I seriously love some minimal mom, I talk ab you often! I’m a single person living in a house alone so my experience is very different. However decluttering my whole house has still had such a huge impact. There is so much freedom and joy here. Your videos have changed my life. I also enjoy seeing you and Diana together 😅 thank you for sharing your journey!
Dawn you are the most relatable person ever! You have helped our family more than you know. Our son just decluttered his room with my husband yesterday. Now everything needs to leave the house. 😁
Good job Dawn, your background in marketing and radio is evident. You are clear, friendly and encouraging. I called my brother yesterday to say I was coming to visit, and he replied I was going to ask you to come help me with my house! Dawn, your collaboration with Cas the Clutterbug and Dana from A Slob Comes Clean has given me so much-mostly compassion for myself and my family in terms of “stuff”. I feel prepared to be of real help to my brother. BTW, we are both in our 60’s and love “cool things” and inherited “treasures” from our parents’ house. Now I can be there with love-and helpful ideas! Thanks!
I’ve watched you for three years now and look forward to Saturday mornings with you as we body-double. :) Thank you for all you do, you have greatly impacted a positive shift in my life that is creating healthy relationships with things and how I want to live my life. Thank you for clearing the clutter out of my house, but most importantly, my mind. Forever grateful for you. ❤
I have been watching you for several years and, as a few others have commented, feel like we are friends. In my humble opinion, your videos have always been informative, gracious and entertaining. I want to "tune in" to see what you and your family have been up to. I watch your sister's as well. I am in a completely different phase of my life, grandmother of 13, working at an elementary school in my retirement job, living in a major Southern CA city and still I learn from what you share. Thank you for continuing so steadfastly to share what you do.
Ugh…this video…JUST KIDDING! I want to see if Tom really reads the comments he thinks are negative! ❤❤ Thank you so much for sharing! You have helped me tremendously! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I just love how balanced you are with "sparce" and "stuff".... lightbulb moments are the best!!!.....thank you for all you do, say, and show!!!....I get sooo much from your channel, very inspiring and do-able.....you have the cutest, adorable personality!!!....
With someone like you who is just so sincere and kind and real... how can anyone not love that? You bring out the best in people, and that makes all the difference. Thank you for having the courage to start this channel
This podcast was such a pleasure to listen to. I am a degreed Home Economist and fully enjoy your content. I’m retired now, but only wish RUclips and podcasts were around when I was younger. Even now, I would love to be a life skills coach specifically in managing the home. You are such an inspiration. I had to smile when you said going to separate schools gave you the first time experience of hearing your own name. I’ve known two sets of identical twins, one who lives near by, I admit, I never know who I’m talking to until well into the conversation!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us! I found your blog shortly after you started it and watched all your videos. I began decluttering around the same time you did and I had trouble finding other families doing the same. Your blog and videos were an answer to prayer! I keep coming back because you have become an internet friend full of wisdom and encouragement.
I have been following you now for over 3 years! You have taught me so much and my house is in such better shape because of you! I love the kind, supportive FB community! It’s like having almost 2000 girlfriends that give love, support and advice on almost anything! So glad you pursued your dreams, are living in on your dream farm and reaching out to the world and blessing so many people! Your entire family is such a joy to experience!
Dawn! I’m so glad I came across this channel!! You are literally my body double EVERY week, haha! I get things done, while I get to learn and laugh with you!! Love it!! Thank you! 💚
I tell EVERYONE I meet about The Minimal mom...I have learned so much from you, Dawn and I love you!! ❤ As soon as I saw you had a podcast too, I jumped on it to subscribe! THANK YOU soooo much for all that you do for us! You literally changed my life! ❤🥰🫂
I’ve followed you for a long time and what I’m noticing lately is these amazing serendipitous things seem to happen to you- it seems like it’s a mix of knowing what you want, patience for the right moment, listening to your gut for ideas, and being flexible to make changes and problem solving as needed. Thanks for sharing your stories!
I first heard Joshua Becker at a MOPS convention in 2016. I was so intrigued by minimalism. Then in 2020, when we were stuck at home, I started scrolling on RUclips and found you. Been a subscriber since. I’ve learned a lot from you. Thank you!!
Dawn, YOU are so kind and inspirational. 💐 I found your videos and keep coming back because there’s nobody else online who motivates me like you! Thank you!! Keep on posting- we need the cheering on and positivity of the sound of your voice! 🌸🌸🌸
Just discovered this podcast today, Dawn, and what strikes me so much is not how this avenue has become a success in your life (I don't wonder about that at all, it is the natural pathway for your truest talents) but how you have created so much inspiration and possibility and ROOM in the lives of others for all of us to reach towards our most divine selves. I thank you with every communication of yours that you give that life-changing gift. I have hope every day because of you, and I can bring that to the world at large to be my own force for good!
Dawn thank you for sharing your very interesting journey ! Both you and Tom are willing to test the waters and that's great. Both very energetic and hard working people. I really enjoy your videos and have learned so much. I am beginning to see the light of day in my home now all because of you - you gave me the incentive to begin de-cluttering. Thank you so much !! 🌺🌺🌺🌼🌼🌺🌺
Yayyy! More Dawn/Minimal Mom time and content! I feel like we can never have too much Dawn! Thank you for the way you speak to us all, it's encouraging, real, and nobody can do this quite like You. ❤
You are the one who started me on my journey in exactly the same way that you described Joshua Becker did for you. Not only that, but you continue to inspire me to keep going further and further using the onion method. I’ve gone further than I ever thought I would and I’ve encouraged others using your words and phrases too! I’m from South Australia so you have a far reach! Thankyou! Xx I also thankyou for introducing me to Dana and Cass as well!
I am also an Aussie but living in London and say your words all the time to my friends...' Do I want to manage this amount of inventory'. Nowadays I can be ready for guests in under 15 mins without having a meltdown because of your help. You have changed our family life and I refer to you often as if you were my personal friend. One day i hope to come to the states to meet you to say THANK YOU for being you.
Oh and I forgot to say, thanks for introducing me to Diana but also to the hilarious Rusty Judgement... can't wait for Fridays to come around for more updates on the projects... really inspired my husband as well.
Love hearing your story! My husband and I talk frequently about how much your channel has changed our home! Thank you for all your guidance, keep up the great work!!❤
I love all your content and find it very encouraging. It's nice to have this format to listen to. I've got a ways to go yet, but I'll get there eventually. Thanks for introducing ways for us to make minimalism our own.
Thank you Dawn, I've been with you now I guess 3 yrs. My friend shared a video from yours and after that I couldn't get enough. You do encourage me. I'm still trying to declutter our home but I do have hope. My hubby would actually clear out everything, so if I let him we'd probably be minimalist already!! But.... I'm holding on. But not so tightly now. Great work you are doing ❤
Dawn you are the BEST! You always seem to know just what to say. Somehow it’s just what I need to hear. I love your channel and I look forward to it weekly. I also love the take your house back course. The trio is absolutely perfect together. Keep up the good work.
I'm so thrilled there's another way to listen and learn. I loved hearing this story, especially the behind the scenes of your youtube journey! Thank you for sharing!
I’m grateful to have stumbled across your video a little over a year ago. I have a lot more decluttering to do, but have made tremendous progress! Thank you Dawn! 🙏🏻💕💕💕
My kids and I are really thankful and we always watch your videos together this time we were late as we do few days off technology ❤❤❤❤❤❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for choosing my experience in your video 🤯
I'm so glad I found this channel before I had children, I'm hoping to start a family soon and feel I have so many tools to cope with what will be a busy chapter! Would love you to do a video on what you thought you needed for a baby then vs now 😊
I love watching both you & Tom. It IS like visiting with friends. Straight up, honest, funny…. I appreciate that neither of drag out ur message. You have helped me uncluttered so much… more to go, but now I really ask myself if I REALLY NEED something before I buy it. ❤❤❤❤
Thank you Dawn. Your wardrobe declutter video helped clear lots & lots of cloths. We even managed to declutter the whole house and down size to a much smaller property. Always grateful, I can't thank you enough ❤ If you need to clear your clothes, go watch the video.
Thank you for the video. It was interesting to learn you closer. Your videos are very motivating but you speak really so much that you could, besides making videos, think in the future to come back to the radio. You are a very positive person and I enjoy your laughter. The radio needs such people like You. Good luck❤
Hi Dawn just love watching all your videos❤ there are times that I imagine walking in our mall and seeing you with your family😀...just want to share how my grandmother made us do the dishes every night before we go to sleep is my telling us that we can get sick during the night and people must come and find our kitchen dirty and that wont be a good site to see🙈
I truly enjoy watching and listening to you. I recommend you to everyone i know. Im sure they're all so sick of me telling them about what The Minimal Mom said the other day. Lol. But I'll keep spreading the word because, like you said, it's just too important of a message not to share.
What link would I have to click on to get the house tour of your previous home?? I am very curious 😆 I started watching your RUclips videos I think about a week after we had made a move. It was a house with less storage and no garage or shed or even attic or basement. So we were left to FACE all our things. Long story short I stumbled upon one of your videos and I was hooked. I binge watched for weeks! I'd stay up late to watch your videos and then declutter all day. I was determined 😂... But that is all thanks to YOU Dawn! You're an amazing person and I love your perspective on so many things. Thanks for sharing and helping us all live a life that is simpler and so much more enjoyable!! 😅
Love your channel, Dawn, and I've just subscribed to this one as well. When I got through with my decluttering journey (are we really ever done? lol), a weight was suddenly lifted off my shoulders that I didn't even know I had been carrying. Decluttering is SO WORTH IT in the end. Thanks for inspiring all of us to lighten our load.
Just found your channel through being a Ramsey fan. Helping me a lot! I had to slow down playback speed though because like my husband loves to say when I tell him he talks fast, I listen slow. 😂
Thank you so much for listening and could I ask a favor? Would you mind subscribing? It helps RUclips recommend this podcast to more friends. Thank you! Dawn
Subscribed the minute I found it😊
Subscribed! ✔️😉🔔

Ditto !!!! Isn’t that crazy ! Great job Dawn and parents
I can’t remember when i started watching but it was a loooong time ago and i learn something new with every video. Thanks Dawn👏
We will likely never meet, but you have changed my life. Thank you.
Me too! I’m so blessed by Dawn and her family!

Hi! On Thursday I will be 79 and the only reason I mention it is because it’s never too late to declutter and become a minimalist. Your videos have been immeasurably helpful for me on my journey. You are a delight to listen to. Many thanks.
@P J Freeman Agree 76yrs young and learned so much from Dawn. So grateful to finally declutter🫶🏻
I love your youtube! I am a 66 year old wife, mother and grandma and I am still trying to become more efficient in my house,..you and Cass the clutterbig are such an encouragement to me! Thanks!!

Every blessing to you, Jodi. Every success with everything. G Ire
Keep watching and keep up the awesome work!
Same here. I always come back to rewatch videos for inspiration ❤thank you, Dawn:) you are amazing
New Subcriber from TN.
I have learned so much from you and other channels.
We became Debt Free in 2020. We started deculttering in 2018. We sold and threw away so much STUFF. We are still doing it.
I was able to retire from being a Hairdresser after 33 years. With 1 income, we are actually saving money now.
Thank you so much!

Thank you Dawn, this is great . Have seen your Minimal Mom channel for years , in Australia 😁👍🇦🇺
You've really helped me for years Dawn, so grateful you're here. I've been decluttering for a few years now, but its not until this past fortnight when we moved furniture out of our lounge to put new carpet down that I realised (and my family) that we love just having space!

I feel prepared to be of real help to my brother. BTW, we are both in our 60’s and love “cool things” and inherited “treasures” from our parents’ house. Now I can be there with love-and helpful ideas! Thanks!
I’ve watched you for three years now and look forward to Saturday mornings with you as we body-double. :) Thank you for all you do, you have greatly impacted a positive shift in my life that is creating healthy relationships with things and how I want to live my life. Thank you for clearing the clutter out of my house, but most importantly, my mind. Forever grateful for you. ❤
I have been watching you for several years and, as a few others have commented, feel like we are friends. In my humble opinion, your videos have always been informative, gracious and entertaining. I want to "tune in" to see what you and your family have been up to. I watch your sister's as well. I am in a completely different phase of my life, grandmother of 13, working at an elementary school in my retirement job, living in a major Southern CA city and still I learn from what you share. Thank you for continuing so steadfastly to share what you do.
THANK YOU SO MUCH DAWN TRULY APPRECIATED
Ugh…this video…JUST KIDDING! I want to see if Tom really reads the comments he thinks are negative! ❤❤ Thank you so much for sharing! You have helped me tremendously! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Such a fun video hearing your back story and how you got here! Thank you for sharing! 🥰
I just love how balanced you are with "sparce" and "stuff".... lightbulb moments are the best!!!.....thank you for all you do, say, and show!!!....I get sooo much from your channel, very inspiring and do-able.....you have the cutest, adorable personality!!!....
With someone like you who is just so sincere and kind and real... how can anyone not love that? You bring out the best in people, and that makes all the difference. Thank you for having the courage to start this channel
This podcast was such a pleasure to listen to. I am a degreed Home Economist and fully enjoy your content. I’m retired now, but only wish RUclips and podcasts were around when I was younger. Even now, I would love to be a life skills coach specifically in managing the home. You are such an inspiration.
I had to smile when you said going to separate schools gave you the first time experience of hearing your own name. I’ve known two sets of identical twins, one who lives near by, I admit, I never know who I’m talking to until well into the conversation!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us! I found your blog shortly after you started it and watched all your videos. I began decluttering around the same time you did and I had trouble finding other families doing the same. Your blog and videos were an answer to prayer! I keep coming back because you have become an internet friend full of wisdom and encouragement.
I have been following you now for over 3 years! You have taught me so much and my house is in such better shape because of you! I love the kind, supportive FB community! It’s like having almost 2000 girlfriends that give love, support and advice on almost anything! So glad you pursued your dreams, are living in on your dream farm and reaching out to the world and blessing so many people! Your entire family is such a joy to experience!
Dawn! I’m so glad I came across this channel!! You are literally my body double EVERY week, haha! I get things done, while I get to learn and laugh with you!! Love it!! Thank you! 💚
I tell EVERYONE I meet about The Minimal mom...I have learned so much from you, Dawn and I love you!! ❤ As soon as I saw you had a podcast too, I jumped on it to subscribe! THANK YOU soooo much for all that you do for us! You literally changed my life! ❤🥰🫂
Thank you for sharing all that you share! I cannot tell you the impact you have had on my and my family’s life.
I’ve followed you for a long time and what I’m noticing lately is these amazing serendipitous things seem to happen to you- it seems like it’s a mix of knowing what you want, patience for the right moment, listening to your gut for ideas, and being flexible to make changes and problem solving as needed. Thanks for sharing your stories!
Tack du har inspirerat mig att komma igång och rensa ut allt jag inte behöver❤️
I first heard Joshua Becker at a MOPS convention in 2016. I was so intrigued by minimalism. Then in 2020, when we were stuck at home, I started scrolling on RUclips and found you. Been a subscriber since. I’ve learned a lot from you. Thank you!!
Dawn, YOU are so kind and inspirational. 💐 I found your videos and keep coming back because there’s nobody else online who motivates me like you! Thank you!! Keep on posting- we need the cheering on and positivity of the sound of your voice! 🌸🌸🌸
Just discovered this podcast today, Dawn, and what strikes me so much is not how this avenue has become a success in your life (I don't wonder about that at all, it is the natural pathway for your truest talents) but how you have created so much inspiration and possibility and ROOM in the lives of others for all of us to reach towards our most divine selves. I thank you with every communication of yours that you give that life-changing gift. I have hope every day because of you, and I can bring that to the world at large to be my own force for good!
Dawn thank you for sharing your very interesting journey ! Both you and Tom are willing to test the waters and that's great. Both very energetic and hard working people. I really enjoy your videos and have learned so much. I am beginning to see the light of day in my home now all because of you - you gave me the incentive to begin de-cluttering. Thank you so much !! 🌺🌺🌺🌼🌼🌺🌺
Yayyy! More Dawn/Minimal Mom time and content! I feel like we can never have too much Dawn! Thank you for the way you speak to us all, it's encouraging, real, and nobody can do this quite like You. ❤
You are the one who started me on my journey in exactly the same way that you described Joshua Becker did for you. Not only that, but you continue to inspire me to keep going further and further using the onion method. I’ve gone further than I ever thought I would and I’ve encouraged others using your words and phrases too! I’m from South Australia so you have a far reach! Thankyou! Xx I also thankyou for introducing me to Dana and Cass as well!
I am also an Aussie but living in London and say your words all the time to my friends...' Do I want to manage this amount of inventory'. Nowadays I can be ready for guests in under 15 mins without having a meltdown because of your help. You have changed our family life and I refer to you often as if you were my personal friend. One day i hope to come to the states to meet you to say THANK YOU for being you.
Oh and I forgot to say, thanks for introducing me to Diana but also to the hilarious Rusty Judgement... can't wait for Fridays to come around for more updates on the projects... really inspired my husband as well.
Life changing for me too! I’m a single mom and your advice has even spilled over giving me energy and money saved!!! Thank you 🤗🌺
Love hearing your story! My husband and I talk frequently about how much your channel has changed our home! Thank you for all your guidance, keep up the great work!!❤
I love all your content and find it very encouraging. It's nice to have this format to listen to. I've got a ways to go yet, but I'll get there eventually. Thanks for introducing ways for us to make minimalism our own.
Lovely to hear more about your life, Dawn. You deserve only positive comments!! Love to you and Diana. You are both such a blessing. XG Ire
You are a blessing to our family Dawn!!! Lord bless you and keep you and make His face shine upon you and your family!!
Love you, Dawn! I’m so happy you’re doing the podcast. I love to listen to you while I’m working or getting the kids to bed 😊
You are such a bright light in this community, Dawn! I tried your method and made an episode about it: Empty Nest version. Learned so much. Thank you!
Thank you Dawn, I've been with you now I guess 3 yrs. My friend shared a video from yours and after that I couldn't get enough. You do encourage me. I'm still trying to declutter our home but I do have hope. My hubby would actually clear out everything, so if I let him we'd probably be minimalist already!! But.... I'm holding on. But not so tightly now. Great work you are doing ❤
Dawn you are the BEST! You always seem to know just what to say. Somehow it’s just what I need to hear. I love your channel and I look forward to it weekly. I also love the take your house back course. The trio is absolutely perfect together. Keep up the good work.
I'm so thrilled there's another way to listen and learn. I loved hearing this story, especially the behind the scenes of your youtube journey! Thank you for sharing!
This video made me smile. So inspiring. 😊
Subscribed. I really enjoy podcasts on RUclips.
I’m grateful to have stumbled across your video a little over a year ago. I have a lot more decluttering to do, but have made tremendous progress! Thank you Dawn! 🙏🏻💕💕💕
You have literally changed my whole life. So very grateful. Love you 🙏❤️
My kids and I are really thankful and we always watch your videos together this time we were late as we do few days off technology
❤❤❤❤❤❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for choosing my experience in your video 🤯
I was also “the quiet one” until my fraternal twin and I went to different universities 😂
That's an amazing painting in the background. It just so beautiful.
I'm so glad I found this channel before I had children, I'm hoping to start a family soon and feel I have so many tools to cope with what will be a busy chapter! Would love you to do a video on what you thought you needed for a baby then vs now 😊
I love watching both you & Tom. It IS like visiting with friends. Straight up, honest, funny…. I appreciate that neither of drag out ur message. You have helped me uncluttered so much… more to go, but now I really ask myself if I REALLY NEED something before I buy it. ❤❤❤❤
You have changed so many people’s lives! Thank you❤
You are such an inspiration, Dawn! Thank you for all your virtual therapy sessions! 😉
Thank you Dawn. Your wardrobe declutter video helped clear lots & lots of cloths. We even managed to declutter the whole house and down size to a much smaller property. Always grateful, I can't thank you enough ❤
If you need to clear your clothes, go watch the video.
Clothes not cloths 😂
Thank you for this video. I found you several months ago and have been subscribed, but I really enjoyed hearing about how you got started.
I subscribed a couple of years ago and I loved your accent. You have helped me so much and I love your family and all your adventures with Tom.
Thanks you were the first program i watched ,i learnt so much ,Thanks God❤ minimalism helped to manage enjoy my Home🏡🥰
Thanks for sharing the back story about your beginning! I love all your videos!
Thank you for the video. It was interesting to learn you closer. Your videos are very motivating but you speak really so much that you could, besides making videos, think in the future to come back to the radio. You are a very positive person and I enjoy your laughter. The radio needs such people like You. Good luck❤
Hi Dawn just love watching all your videos❤ there are times that I imagine walking in our mall and seeing you with your family😀...just want to share how my grandmother made us do the dishes every night before we go to sleep is my telling us that we can get sick during the night and people must come and find our kitchen dirty and that wont be a good site to see🙈
I’m crying! I love you Dawn!
Thanks for being a Bestie!
So taken by surprise by an Asheville mention. Please come back to visit the mountains! Love the podcast keep it coming!
Your laugh is the best ever ❤
Thank you. It was fun to listen. I did not realize I have followed you since the beginning. Congratulations, God has been so good and faithful.
I truly enjoy watching and listening to you. I recommend you to everyone i know. Im sure they're all so sick of me telling them about what The Minimal Mom said the other day. Lol. But I'll keep spreading the word because, like you said, it's just too important of a message not to share.
Our comments are kind and encouraging be cause YOU are so kind and encouraging Dawn ❤
I love you and your family. I so appreciate everything you have shared with me. My own life is so much more organised and happy now.
What link would I have to click on to get the house tour of your previous home?? I am very curious 😆
I started watching your RUclips videos I think about a week after we had made a move. It was a house with less storage and no garage or shed or even attic or basement. So we were left to FACE all our things. Long story short I stumbled upon one of your videos and I was hooked. I binge watched for weeks! I'd stay up late to watch your videos and then declutter all day. I was determined 😂... But that is all thanks to YOU Dawn! You're an amazing person and I love your perspective on so many things. Thanks for sharing and helping us all live a life that is simpler and so much more enjoyable!! 😅
So happy your podcast is back! Woo hoo!!!! I listened on my pod app the first go round. Welcome back!
I just love you, any you are so kind and sincere. I also love watching you and Tom and your little family. Keep up the good work.❤
AMAZING JOURNEY, Dawn!
We appreciate you!😃💖😃
Love your channel, Dawn, and I've just subscribed to this one as well. When I got through with my decluttering journey (are we really ever done? lol), a weight was suddenly lifted off my shoulders that I didn't even know I had been carrying. Decluttering is SO WORTH IT in the end. Thanks for inspiring all of us to lighten our load.
Great interview.
I’ve known your story but still thoroughly enjoyed this. I will be subscribing to your podcast.
Just found your channel through being a Ramsey fan. Helping me a lot! I had to slow down playback speed though because like my husband loves to say when I tell him he talks fast, I listen slow. 😂
