About this episode
This week on Tidy Tidbits, I’m joined by Julia Clarke for a fascinating conversation about what happened when her family downsized from a three-bedroom apartment to a one-bedroom apartment in Glasgow, Scotland. I first read her story HERE.
We talk about the assumptions many of us carry about space, privacy, and what kids “need,” and how their family unexpectedly found more connection, simplicity, and ease by living smaller.
In this episode, we discuss:
* Why they chose to downsize
* The tradeoffs between more space and better location
* Privacy, screens, and modern family life
* Why smaller spaces can lead to simpler routines
* The surprising ways their family became happier and more connected
If you’ve ever wondered whether bigger is always better, this conversation might make you rethink what “just enough” really looks like.
