#TheVoidProject 02: Living Freely w/Danielle Heckmeck
What does it look like to closely align one’s material possessions with clear personal values and aspirations?
Summary
What does is look like to closely align one’s material possessions with clear personal values and aspirations? Danielle provides a shining example. Freedom has a very specific meaning to her. She deliberately organizes her life for simplicity, enabling flexibility and freedom for focused spiritual pursuits. She discusses her values, how she views time when making plans for the future, selecting possessions that are versatile, and creating a living space where she can feel herself more than the items in the room.
