Welcome to The Expert Beginner!

Less Stuff.

More Intention.

Hi, Shannon here! You may know me from my Instagram and podcast titled Paring Down, where I share about all things decluttering and living with intention. My blog is called The Expert Beginner because A) I haven’t bought a new domain, and B) I’ve been blogging for 13 years and The Expert Beginner still sums up what I want to share with the world: To live with intention, we must get out of autopilot. In doing so, we’ll become perpetual beginners — constantly learning and growing toward a life well-lived.
