About

Picture
I'm pretty new to this.
I have lived most of my life in my hometown of Barcelona, in Spain where I owned my own retail business for 15 years before transitioning into Life Coaching in 2012. During those years I would read about, fantasize and sometimes take action towards living with less and "unplugging" from the grip of consumerism and societal pressure.

In 2016, our family moved to the Chicagoland area. My husband, our 3 kids and I made the Transatlantic move... after selling or donating over 50% of our belongings (that is, keeping the furniture, kitchenware, linens, clothing and a few ornaments and books). 
It was easier that I though and we owe that to one single idea: Deciding to start over with less and reclaiming homemaking.
Less belongings, less obligations, less keeping up with expectations... more learning, more experimenting, more fulfillment.
In a very intuitive and organic way, our family of five redefined how we wanted to live. And Simple and Subversive is a testimony to that. 

The more I read, the more radical -as in profound, essential and vital, but also as in nonconventional and reactionary- my view,  the more I understand that choosing a Simple Life has to come with a Subversive component. Only if we add this forgotten but essential ingredient to our perspective will we achieve a lasting change in our world.
