The Abundance of Less (w/ Andy Couturier)
Show Notes

In today's far ranging conversation, Andy Couturier illustrates - through his own story, and those of people he’s profiled - what it could look like to be deeply aligned with values of conscious consumption, rolling up our sleeves for our basic needs, and creating abundance of space and spirit through simplicity and elimination. We also delve into writing as a powerful personal practice, and how any expressive pursuit can act as a container for us to feel and live our lives more deeply.
