Weโre Ang and Sporty.
We're two Gen X women who looked at our financial situation and decided that doing nothing was the riskiest option available. So we're buying land, building a small house, and growing our own food โ in real time, with real numbers, and no filter on what goes wrong.
This newsletter is for Gen X women who are behind where they thought they'd be and are trying to figure out what to do about it. We're writing from the middle of that, not the other side.
Real numbers. Muddy minimalist shoes. Occasional cameos from our rescue kitty Mr Handsome.

Ang & Sporty | Figuring It Out at 60
Hello friends. We've landed in our new home town and Mr Handsome approves. He especially loves the wide windowsill and excellent cat TV. The birdlife here is something else! ๐คฉ The view in the second photo is the same one he's enjoying and also what we see from our bed in the morning. There'll be a new video up tomorrow that has some...erm...interesting news. Sorry for the brief hiatus while we moved, but the schedule is back to normal from now on. ๐ โค๏ธ

This week's video is ever so slightly behind schedule thanks to the iffy weather that's preventing Ang from doing the garden work she promised. Don't worry, it'll make more sense once the video is up. ๐ป ๐ฅ For now, here's a pic of the ever handsome Mr Handsome. ๐ป โค๏ธ

Greetings friends! We just wanted to say a massive thank to all of you for the lovely, enthusiastic, and super supportive comments. We appreciate them more than we can say. We're doing our best to respond to them all.
We also wanted to thank everyone for encouraging us to turn on our "Hype" button, but unfortunately YouTube doesn't offer the function in our part of the world yet. Fingers crossed they will see the error of their ways and change that soon. xx

Hello friends! ๐ We need your help please! We've decided to change our name. Mostly Mindful is no longer a good fit for us. (Think tight 80s Ronald Sassoon jeans.) We've come up with three names and we'd love for you to vote for your favorite. Love, sporty, Ang, and Mr Handsome. โค๏ธ ๐ ๐ ๐บ

Sentimental clutter isnโt just โstuff.โ Itโs the hardest kind of clutter because it carries love, memory, and identity.
In our latest Substack post, Sporty shares the experience of receiving her momโs jewelry after she passed away, and why letting go of sentimental items is so tricky. We also talk about gentle, practical ways to approach it.
