Shannon's back from Italy and we're running some episodes we recorded before she left. This week, Shannon and Janine are talking about the beauty of taking a simple approach to starting something and how that can be challenging for perfectionists.

Discussion topics include:

• Our virtual retreat to plan our YNAB coaching practices (simpler than trying to figure out how to work together in person)• How starting simple can help you actually get started on a project• Leaving open the possibility for change when you're starting something• Applying this concept to decluttering your closet• How Janine made starting her car-buying process very simple by buying what Shannon had• The beauty of narrowing down your options (and how Shannon accomplished that when she built her most recent house)• How starting simple can make a project feel less overwhelming• Remember: it's not necessary to plan every single step of a project before you start it (something that perfectionists tend to want to do)• How you can get more information with each step of a project (after you get started)• Starting simple by guessing• Figuring out what barriers need to be taken away to allow you to get started• Getting past the "What If?"• Recognizing that what feels simple to one person may not feel simple to someone else
