Hi FRIENDS!
I know you haven’t heard from me from this blog in some time as I have been working hard on the business stuff …and still working on the rebranding, etc. = excuses (lame ones!)
BUT after a very restful vacation I am inspired to get back to my SHANDEL blog as well as the TRUE LIFE INC one! Must have been all the inspiration from the nieces and nephews never ending energy and creativity!
Now that we have an official podcast we can get you the ASK SHANDEL show to you in your itunes – how cool is that? AND we are running that through the TRUE LIFE INC site. I am hoping you will subscribe there as this site will be more and more personal once I get my act together. :)
Here’s what I posted with a link to listen in!
Enjoy!

Once we got past our pillow talk we took a deep dive into the connection between happiness and a simpler life. The topic was inspired by an article I posted on facebook discussing how people can consume less and in return have more JOY! For this couple, the formula for more happiness included cutting out stuff that doesn’t matter and living a clutter free life.
Segment 2 we got a bit more practical in what we can do NOW to downsize our lives and experience more happiness!
Here are a few steps can you take to live a simpler life:
1. Get out of debt!
3. Identify the emotional attachment you have to your stuff.
4. Visualize the life you want to have and take small steps each year, month, week, and day in that direction.
5. This is just what comes to top of mind as there are many minor steps but you have to take the first one.
The point on simplifying, getting out debt, and clearing the clutter is it frees us up to focus on our purpose and the great things in our lives. If you are interested in REALLY taking the first step consider our next LIFE 301 class that starts September 16th!
The show ended on an encouraging note as a listener called in to share her story. She heard us on an earlier “Ask Shandel” show discussing the Clear The Clutter Challenge and shared how it has changed her life. You will love her story!
What will you do to simplify your life and BE HAPPY?
Your Coach Loves You!

Well, Shandel, I just had to leave a note regarding simplifying your life and decluttering. It seems like it was ages ago that I read your words on that subject. It’s been hard to get moving on it, but I have a huge desire for a simpler life, and have been praying for help in this area. After reading this letter, I had to let you know that today I took 3 bagfuls of items to donate to a fundraiser for a missionary family, and I have 3 bags of clothes to take to the thrift store tomorrow. Yay!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve made a start, and it feels so good. Thx for your motivation.
Good for you Jackie!! Very proud of you and look how much value you are adding to other people. Keep up the good work!!
