Why You’re Still Holding Onto That Treadmill (And What to Do About It) | Ari Kimmelfeld (EP434)

As we head into late winter/early spring, the pressure to “get organized,” “purge everything,” and finally become our "most minimalist selves" starts to creep in. But what if our decluttering intentions don’t fail because of laziness - but because they’re rooted in guilt? In this episode, I’m joined by Ari Kimmelfeld, founder of Commonplace, a company rethinking how we buy and sell large wellness and fitness equipment. We talk about the items that often feel hardest to let go of - the big investments that once represented our best intentions. And yet, for many of us, they quietly become reminders of goals unmet or seasons that have shifted. If you’ve been staring at something in your home that represents an old goal, a past version of you, or simply a season that has passed - this episode will give you permission to move forward thoughtfully.

Because minimalism isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about living honestly with who you are right now.
