I’m Patrice, a 55-year-old woman living a quiet and meaningful life centred around slow living, homemaking, and finding joy in the simple things. Having experienced burnout while working in palliative care, I left my well-paid job to become a stay-at-home wife.
Here, I share gentle homemaking routines, frugal living on one income, minimalist homemaking tips, ideas for simple living, slow mornings, and low-budget meals. As an introvert, I find peace in simple activities like baking, sewing, decluttering, gardening, and creating a welcoming home.
This channel is for those who feel overwhelmed and crave calm. If you're exploring minimalism, a low-buy year, a simple life, homemaking, or simplicity, you're not alone.
I’m not an expert, just someone still figuring things out, but I want to share my progress and the challenges I still face as we rediscover purpose, creativity, and joy through mindful homemaking, thrifty living, and crafting a beautiful life with what we have.
