About this episode
Today is a special edition of Sorta Awesome! If you are reading the show’s description on iTunes or in an app, you’ll want to click on over to http://sortaawesomemegan.tumblr.com/ to access all the links. Many of you may know that the Ultimate Homemaking Bundle sale launches today. Erin Odom (of thehumbledhomemaker.com) is one of the co-founders of Ultimate Bundles, and I wanted to invite her on the show to talk shop … er … to talk home, I suppose. Shortly after my twins turned a year old, Erin shared an incredibly simple piece of advice for managing the home with little ones underfoot, but that simple secret absolutely saved my sanity for many months to come. Erin and I talk about that advice she gave me, and then we talk about how the bundle business grew into what it has become today. Finally, she explains what all you can expect to find in the Ultimate Homemaking Bundle 2015.    SHOW NOTES: 1. The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing, Marie Kondo 2. Dear Mom Who Can’t Afford Organic Food Controlling the Spin Within Find Erin on her blog, Facebook, and Instagram! As always, thanks to Progger for allowing us to use the song Strut!
