  • What happens when the high-paced glamour of city life loses its shine? In this episode, I’m joined by my friend, Claire Denault, a second-generation homeschool mom and public speaker, who shares her transformative journey from the opulence of Dallas to the quiet, intentional living of a small North Carolina town. Claire opens up about the stark contrast between high-profile city life and the deeply fulfilling existence she’s found in nature, family, and presence.

    We explore her unique upbringing on a hobby farm in upstate New York, her quest for excitement in the city, and her ultimate realization that true contentment lies in simplicity. A passionate advocate for homeschooling and strong family connections, Claire challenges the modern rush for “more” and makes a compelling case for slowing down, tuning in, and embracing a life rooted in what truly matters. Whether you're a parent, a city dweller contemplating change, or simply curious about a different way of life, this episode will leave you inspired to rethink the choices that shape your daily world.

Drawing from her unconventional journey, Claire champions individualized learning that fosters creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration. As a thought leader, she challenges the status quo, urging parents and policymakers to embrace flexible education models that unlock each learner's full potential.

  • Joining me today is Tara Clark, known for her Instagram account, Modern Mom Probs. She's here to share her journey from working at Nickelodeon to becoming a prominent content creator (with nearly a million followers!) She delves into the challenges of staying relevant, especially with the rise of video content and how she balances her work-life dynamics by compartmentalizing her roles. This is my third conversation with Tara and (as you'll hear at the beginning) I just knew I wanted to have her back on Clear Intentions - because while we've talked about comparison and hoarding, I wanted to go deeper with Tara to find out what motivates her to live an intentional life.

  • In this first episode of 'Clear Intentions’ (formerly the Minimalist Moms podcast) I reconnect with friend, Ginny Yurich - the founder of 1000 Hours Outside. In this conversation we cover how she juggles multiple roles as a homeschooling mom, author, and outdoor advocate. What does she outsource? If anything? I had to know! And, of course, I couldn’t let Ginny go without discussing ways to spend our time outdoors - specifically she discusses encouragement for teenagers, tired moms and for those living in colder environments.

    How can embracing your unique brain and letting go of misconceptions about cleanliness lead to a more fulfilling spiritual life? Dana K. White, author of Decluttering at the Speed of Life, and now the new book, Jesus Doesn't Care About Your Mess, shares how her personal struggles with clutter inspired a career dedicated to helping others simplify their homes. In this episode, she emphasizes that a clean home is not a measure of spirituality and that organization can be achieved without chaos. Dana also delves into her faith journey, addressing myths about cleanliness and spirituality, and explores how gratitude has helped to shape her perspective.

  • Are you tired of the question, “What do you do?” as an at-home parent—a question that oversimplifies and undervalues the role? In this podcast episode, I spoke with Neha Ruch, founder of Mother Untitled, to explore the multifaceted reality of taking a career break after having kids. We discuss the invisible yet essential labor of managing a household, the need to redefine success during this unique life phase, and practical ways to stay connected to professional goals while prioritizing family. Neha offers actionable strategies for remaining prepared to re-enter the workforce when the time is right, while also addressing the cultural stigma surrounding career pauses. Together, we reframe parenting as a valuable and fulfilling chapter, challenging outdated narratives about success and family balance. Whether you're navigating this journey or curious about modern perspectives on work and family, this conversation offers an empowering look at thriving in every phase of life.

    The Holy Spirit offers a connection to God even greater than Jesus in the flesh—but many Christians struggle to experience this profound reality. In this episode, Diane interviews pastor and author Tyler Staton about his book, The Familiar Stranger, and the transformative power of the Holy Spirit. Tyler discusses common misunderstandings about the Spirit and how modern distractions hinder spiritual growth, leading to division within the church. He shares pivotal moments in his journey, including a life-changing visit to a church in London, and highlights the importance of prayer, desire, and Scripture in bridging the gap between belief and everyday life. This conversation is an invitation to move beyond intellectual understanding and into a deeper, more authentic relationship with God.

    About Tyler |

    Tyler Staton is the Lead Pastor of Bridgetown Church in Portland, Oregon, and the National Director of 24-7 Prayer USA. He is passionate about pursuing prayer in the honest realities of day-to-day life. Tyler is the author of Praying Like Monks, Living like Fools: An Invitation to the Wonder and Mystery of Prayer and Searching for Enough: The High-Wire Walk Between Doubt and Faith. He lives in Portland with his wife Kirsten, and their sons Hank, Simon, and Amos.

  • In today's episode, author, Courtney Carver and I dive into a question that feels more urgent than ever: When was the last time you gave yourself permission to pause, rest, and truly reset? In a world that tells us happiness and success come from doing more and pushing harder, many of us are left feeling like we’re never enough. But what if there’s another way? Today, we’ll explore the transformative wisdom of Courtney's new book, Gentle: Rest More, Stress Less, and Live the Life You Actually Want. Courtney’s message is simple yet profound: by embracing rest, releasing what weighs us down, and redefining success, we can step into the life we truly desire—with less overwhelm and more ease.

  • Joining me for today's episode is host of the Simple Intentional Podcast, Sarah Horgan. After a stage four cancer diagnosis ten years ago, Sarah found herself reevaluating her life, leading her to embrace a minimalist lifestyle and confront perfectionism and people-pleasing habits.During our conversation, Sarah opens up about how this life-altering experience helped her discover a deeper sense of purpose and how significant life events, such as losing a loved one, can bring clarity and inspire change. She shares practical strategies for decluttering your life, staying mindful amidst the challenges of motherhood, and focusing on incremental progress to achieve long-term goals. Minimalism isn't just an aesthetic, rather it can be a tool to discover greater purpose and clarity in life.

    About Sarah |

    Sarah is a full-time working mom + wife, who lived with clutter and found her way to the other side. She radically changed her own life after a stage 4 cancer diagnosis. Forced to examine everything, including her perfectionism and people pleasing, she realized all the stuff (and not just the physical stuff) was standing in her way of living her life, her way.

    After embracing minimalism and finding her way to simplicity, Sarah started simple + intentional to support other women to do the same. She encourages + inspires others through her instagram account, podcast and online membership community.

    Sarah lives in Toronto with her husband and daughter. She loves the outdoors, a strong cup of tea and is following her dreams, one step at a time.

    Rejection is a universal experience, yet it often feels deeply personal and isolating. In this episode, we delve into the profound impact rejection has on our sense of identity and connection to ourselves and others. Drawing inspiration from Tabitha Panariso’s Loyal in His Love, we’ll explore how rejection, though painful, can be a transformative force when met with truth and self-reflection. Tabitha’s wisdom, rooted in her journey as a therapist, invites us to move beyond shallow comfort and into a deeper understanding of healing and restoration.

  • A father of three with a stressful job, Tyler Moore felt his life resembled an overstuffed closet: disorganized and overly busy behind the tidy, closed doors. When it all became too much—for their 750-square-foot apartment and his nerves—he set out to unpack the physical and emotional mess around him. In today's conversation, we explore the broader concept of tidiness beyond physical decluttering, touching on mental health, personal values, and routines. The conversation also delves into balancing career, creative pursuits, and family life, highlighting the importance of grounding one's lifestyle in core values.
