The Simplicity Journey
The Simplicity Journey is a simplicity path created to provide you with guidance in your simplicity journey. It highlights the different stages you’ll visit as you simplify your life AND it will give you permission to stay focused on one thing at a time.
Keep in mind that this journey doesn’t happen on a straight freeway. It’s more of a winding path. This is something you'll be coming back to again and again, throughout your simplicity journey.
You might spend a month in one stage and a year in another and chances are you’ll revisit some of these stages of simplicity as you move through different stages of life.
Based on the quiz, below is the stage we identified you're in now. We recommend focusing here and starting with the Tiny Steps below.

You Stage

In this stage, you're focused on taking care of yourself, and your physical, mental, and spiritual wellness.
One of the best ways you can do all of these things is by learning to trust yourself and by becoming more you. Maybe you know exactly who you are, but many of us have experienced a disconnect, and we're looking for a way back.
Whether you're just getting started or you've been here before, these Tiny Steps will help you make progress.
Tiny Steps
- Be gentle. You are your toughest critic. When you notice that you are treating yourself in a way that you wouldn't treat others, breathe in, breathe out and say to yourself, "I will be gentle now."
- Make a list of things that support your health. When it's time, begin to incorporate them ... slowly, gently.
- Put your hands on your heart. Check-in during the day to see what you need. Also, when you feel overwhelmed, anxious or exhausted, stop doing all the things and instead put one hand over the other on your heart and ask yourself, "what do I need in this moment." Then listen and trust.
allow me to introduce myself
Hi, I'm Courtney Carver!
I spent much of my adult life tired, stressed, sick and doing work I didn’t care about to make ends meet. I always wanted more or thought I needed more to be happy, but realized after years of decluttering and letting go that happiness isn’t waiting for us, it’s within us.
If you are overwhelmed or exhausted (or both), I know how you feel. I’ve been there. I’ve worked too hard, spent too much, and slept too little.
Simplifying my life gave me the space, time, and love to be more me, and the following practices led me back.
In 2010, I created Be More with Less and minimalist fashion challenge Project 333. Be more with less means: Be more you. Give yourself all the space, time and love to remember who you are. Living with less clutter, busyness, stress and simplifying your life will help you make the room to do what you need to do.
I’m looking forward to learning more about how I can help you create a life that makes you smile every day.
