Minimalist Moms Podcast

In this episode, Diane talks with author Tommy Brown about why slowing down isn’t laziness—it’s wisdom. Drawing from his new book The Speed of Soul, Tommy challenges the cultural obsession with constant achievement and explores four spiritual practices that help us live with depth and clarity: love deeply, live quietly, mind your own affairs, and work with your hands. Together, they discuss how to create meaningful rhythms in a world that prizes productivity, how purposeful work can reconnect us to our values, and why peace often comes from doing less, not more.Links Discussed in This Episode |Tommy's Resource(s): Book: The Ache for Meaning by Tommy BrownBook: Wisdom of the Desert by Thomas MertonBook: New Seeds of Contemplation by Thomas MertonBook: The Way of the Heart by Henri J.
