Thank you so much for these fun and helpful podcasts. They are easy to listen to as you try to simplify life. I am in a journey of decluttering and it’s helping to listen while I work on things room by room.

I enjoy several podcasts geared towards Minimalist living as a parent and this has by far been the most impactful! Diane does an awesome job highlighting actionable topics that feel relevant for me today, and I love her guests!

I’m a big fan of this podcast. I have found it very informative and inspirational. I got rid of a lot of clutter and a few sentimental items and I feel so much lighter now. I appreciate how Diane gets right to the point and is not long winded. I highly recommend!

Love this podcast! Gives real life and relatable tips! Always find something helpful in every episode!

I love this podcast, consistently great guests, helpful tips and the best part is that it feels like you’re just chatting with a friend! ✨

This podcast always has the best guests. One thing that is distracting is that Diane says “no” very frequently. It happens in every single episode while she is talking to the guest. She will say “No, I love that” or “No, that’s great.” It’s never contextually relevant or an answer to a question. It’s confusing and adds a negative connotation to the conversation. Other than that distraction I love this podcast and I am always excited to see new episodes pop up.

I absolutely love this podcast - it has been one of my favorite podcasts and one of the few podcasts that I consistently come back to every single week and have listened to (and learned from) almost every episode. The topics encompass so much about minimalism & intentional living, and it really resonates with me. she chooses excellent guests, and I’ve learned so much from listening to this podcast. LOVE IT!

Practical and applicable! Every episode has a takeaway that I find valuable!

Good variety of guests, definitely some good concepts in the episodes. However, the major flaw is that it’s a bit tone deaf. Minimalism being born out of abundance and the ability to over consume. Of course minimalism applies to everyone but most of the conversations are coming from places of abundance. One guest stated “it was fun” to be out of basic cooking ingredients like eggs and butter because it made her be creative in the kitchen. The sentiment may be true but comes across as ignorant to the many who live like this, not by choice, but by necessity. That being said you can definitely cherry pick inspiration for decluttering and staying more organized. I wouldn’t say this podcast is for everyone, however.

I feel like every mom needs this.

I was a maximalist mom drowning in items and overwhelm until I decided that I wanted to change to a minimalist. Not only has this podcast changed my spending habits and home, it has also helped me become a better mom, business owner and just all around a happier human being. I always appreciate when podcasters are raw & real and this show is the definition of that. This is the first podcast I look for when new shows come out in my library!

I love listening to the Minimalist Moms podcast while I am making dinner each night for my family. It always gives my husband and me so many great ideas to talk about while eating dinner. Thanks for the great discussion topics!

I wish this podcast was for all moms, but the more I listened to it, the more I realized it was focused on Christian mothers. It’s not just a podcast for all moms that are aspiring minimalists. Not for me.

I love this podcast and have been listening for years. Easy to listen to (not too rushed or loud or annoying talking like some others) She has a peaceful voice and nice pace to the show that allows you to actually learn as you listen. Great guests and I love that she doesn’t shy away from niche topics that include religion or homeschooling but rather just says ‘if this topic isn’t for you, come back next week’! I personally love the religious additions but for those that don’t I love that she doesn’t just erase talking about her beliefs/interests but gives well rounded podcasts depending on the week. Listen and enjoy getting rid of all the physical and mental clutter :)

I love this podcast and the topics discussed! As the founder of Neatly Balanced, home organizing with a minimalist approach is incredibly important to me. I will definitely be listening to future episodes and taking notes that I can implement into my clients lives as well!

There’s so many practical life tips in each episode that can apply to any adult. The topics covered are interesting + provide insight on how to be intentional (and practically apply that no matter the season we find ourselves in). Highly recommend this podcast for anyone looking to simplify their life.

I had the pleasure of working with Diane in her latest podcast about Interior Design. It was so much fun and we really got to think through some useful tips that can apply to everyone’s homes not just family/mom spaces.

This podcast is full of so many amazing gems, from helping me reduce the ridicoulous amount of clutter and stuff I have to all sorts of life hacks that make things easier. Her wisdom combined with her guests always leave me feeling like I can do great things. Highly recommend!

My favorite minimalism podcast by far. Diane is so easy to listen to and relatable in her own journey. 10 stars.

I’ve listened to this podcast for a while now, and even though I’m not always able to listen consistently (kids..ya know? ha) I always know I can jump right in and find some value. This podcast is one of the resources I first used when I began decluttering my life and it was one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself and my family!!

I am so thankful for this podcast. My husband and I made the hard decision to sell our big suburban house and downsize to a small rural house at the height of the housing market during the pandemic. Our family and friends thought we were crazy but with the 6 figure profit we were able to pay off our debt, put our children into a private school and start living a more simple but adventure filled life. I don’t know if I would have been brave enough to do it if I never heard this podcast! Thank you Diane. My life is better because of the information you share!

Minimalist moms podcast used to be where I could go for reminders about simplifying parenthood, tips and tricks to make things easier and establishing better routines. Lately though there has been far too much religion - ads for devotionals, Christian speakers talking about religion and more. I came to the podcast looking for simplified answers to every day questions not for a weekly bout of religion. After weeks of “30 second skipping” I’ve come to the conclusion that I need to stop listening to this podcast. It isn’t presented as a religious podcast, but it is beginning to feel very much like a Christian podcast. My recommendation is to rebrand to be true to what it is.

I’m a podcast addict and listened for the first time today. I loved the right where you belong episode. I haven’t listened to the others yet, but I am sure I will be an avid follower! :)

I’ve been binge listening to all of the episodes over the past couple months. I find almost all of the episodes, topics and guests relevant and helpful in my life, and now I have a running book list and resource list too. Now that I’m all caught up, I really look forward to new episodes coming out each week! Keep it up Diane!

I love Diane’s thoughts on how to do more with less. This is such a struggle as a mom. Everyone and everything tells you the answer is MORE stuff, but that’s not true at all. I can feel my anxiety fading away along with my stuff. Thanks fr the inspo!

I love this podcast! I always look forward to Tuesdays when a new episode is released. Great tips, perspective and encouragement in all things motherhood, minimalism and intentional living!

I recently discovered Minimalist Moms and I’m so glad I did! I’m consistently impressed by the engaging conversations, insightful content, and tangible tips. I truly learn something every time I listen. Thanks so much Diane for putting out such an incredible podcast - keep up the great work!

This podcast has become a weekly must-listen for me! I’ve learned so much from Diane and her guests. I’ve been so challenged, inspired, and motivated to “think more and do with less.” ☺️👌🏼

I loved this episode! I learned so much. I have a 7 month old and I’m still learning how to organize, clean my space ! I loved that he switched his rooms! I listen to all of your podcast! You are very reliable and honest! Thanks Krystle

Loved talking with Diane about becoming a “Screenwise” parent (EP: 260) and her whole approach to interviewing. Great conversation! Also learned so much from episodes with Linda Akeson McGurk (244) and Julie Bogart (234) and I can’t wait for the helpful tips in the episodes about traveling—will be listening as I pack us for family vacation.

I had the pleasure of interviewing with host Diane Boden not once, but twice for my episode about Teaching Self-Regulation (E:248). Minimalist Moms Podcast focuses on reducing the noise in your home – whether that’s clutter, over-scheduling, or mental loads. There are some really great episodes that have changed the way I live day-to-day.

I loved being interviewed by Diane for the bonus episode! She has great questions and is so fun to chat with. Our episode is “A delivery room epiphany and how to grow your business without burning out” and this show is so helpful to push us to think about our lives in new ways!!

Love the content, love that she shares minimalist tips of the week, and has an array of guests. Learned a lot of new things and started following the guests on their podcasts and social media.

I’ve only listened to about 5 podcasts so far, but I have been struck by how much advertising there is on a minimalist podcast. I am looking to let go of things, not to consume consume consume.

I enjoy listening to this podcast! Always learning something new and easy to implement! I especially enjoyed a recent one on negative self talk. The guest, Julia Ubbenga, spoke so confidently and had such practical ideas. Her examples of how to implement them were easy to understand!! Excited for more!!

SUCH an honor to talk to Diane about Decluttering Negative Self-Talk (EP252)! Diane is super down to earth, FUN to talk to, and very relatable. I’m thankful for all the gems I’ve learned about decluttering and parenting through her show!

Diane tells it how it is. Her episodes always leave with me with tips that I can implement right away to make my life easier! As a mom of two, anything that can simplify my life is a win! I always look forward to her episodes as they are short and sweet!

Gems in that one!

What an honor to be on the show to and discuss how to calmly and effectively respond to sibling conflict with Diane! (Episode 247) She is so kind hearted and down to earth and I love the amazing things she’s doing with this podcast! 💛

Highly recommend this podcast. Great tips. And the hosts are wonderful. Thank you for sharing your guidance and fun stories with us!

Diane is such a breath of fresh air! Love listening to her and her guests!

I subscribe to all of the shows that out about minimalism and motherhood, but I find this one to go the most in depth and cover the widest variety of topics. Highly recommend this show to anyone seeking to live more simply with a family!

I was so thrilled to be on the show and share about a more balanced, simple and realistic approach to screen time and play! Chatting with Diane was so pleasant and I think we both learned from one another. Parents deserve to release themselves from any feelings of guilt or shame around screen time and, instead, begin to empower themselves and their children to PLAY MORE. I hope you enjoy this episode too and would love it if you’d share with others or write a quick review! - Abby Lynch, @playmore_techless

I’d love it if they minimized the commercials!

I found this podcast a while ago and loved it I really trusted the host and felt she was relatable So when your color guru was on I trusted the opinion of Diane and purchased a package from color guru ($350 worth of consulting) it was such a disappointing consultation and I felt lied to by both the host and your color guru So I unsubscribed from this podcast and I am still digesting the fact that I wasted so much money A year later I decided to try this podcast again but she recently had your color guru on again so now I’m unsubscribing I know hosts benefit from these ads but I’d much prefer ads from companies that are legit in helping me live a more sustainable and simple life

Everything I hear on this podcast is challenging and thoughtful. I’ve gotten so many resources from listening to this. Saving money, relationships, kids, ethical discussions, practical home routines. I love that Diane makes her podcast independently and produces it herself. The quality of the guests and content put this on my list every week. Also, Diane is an incredible interviewer.

I absolutely love this podcast! I always feel like I come away from each podcast with an actionable tip. Even when I listen to episodes that I didn’t think were relevant to me, I still come away with some helpful nugget from the show. I have been on the minimalist/intentionality journey for about 2 years now, and I really feel like the content here helps keep me connected to my values that brought me to minimalism in the first place. Thank you, Diane!

Love this podcast. Super soothing voice, blunt and real authenticity. No sugar coating raw and honest insight and auditing of what we consume on all levels. Feels like listening a old friend you have known for years that isn’t afraid to challenge you to be your best self while simultaneously holding space for feelings & personal growth. Love that the podcast is diversified and not overly focused on physical consumption that is common in topics like this can be repetitive & energy draining. Can’t recommend enough. Truly a podcast you can tell a ton of effort and love goes into. Also- as a side note, I know some reviews mention ads. It’s easy to skip forward and literally every podcast I’ve listened to has ads. Also- running a podcast is no small feat and compensation is absolutely valid! Especially as a mother and entrepreneur, unpaid labor should not push into yet another sector of women’s lives honestly. I will happily listen to ads if I know they are chooses with conviction and more importantly compensating women that are providing so much value and community. -Abby ( mama to 3.5 & 4 month old)

So glad your getting sponsored but slow down a little…. Feel like I’m just listening to ads

I have been listening to this podcast for over a year now. I really enjoy all the content— especially the overarching message to live intentionally. In an age of distraction, this message is so helpful and needed. ❤️
