One of the questions I get asked the most about minimalist fashion challenge Project 333<\/a> is … “What about laundry?” In this week’s episode of the Soul & Wit Podcast<\/a>, I answer that question.

I never thought I’d talk this much about something I care so little about but it’s something that gets our attention on a regular basis so we may as well make it fun. If there are other ordinary things you want us to explore on the pod, let me know!<\/p>\n
