Episode 03: Minimalism vs. Maximalism
This week on the podcast the girls talk about making an effort in minimalism and maximalism.
Gabby confides that she’s always has been and always will be a maximalist (despite having spent the last five years pretending to be on the minimalism trend.) She also is vowing to stop using the word “like” as maximally as well.
Mel talks about being shamed for being a neat freak and having a tidy house. If you come after her for her minimalist, clean home— watch out!
They talk about the sentimental value of belongs and how you decide which things to keep and what things to let go of (spoiler alert: it’s super hard and there are no set rules!)
Gabby bemoans her lack of pantry and Mel shares how she is prejudiced against upper cabinets in the kitchen. They compare spice drawers, you can see their respective kitchen set up here below.
Gabby briefly shares her favourite red lentil recipe from Anna Jones— it’s vegan but you’d never know. And that’s pretty much it! See you next week!
