Thank you to the 3 of you (and podcast Shawn of course!) for this episode. Matt is so talented. Truly enjoyed the new film - your stories, the sorties of every day minimalists and all the questions that the film raised. We, as a family and each of us individually are continuing our minimalist journeys thanks to you!
