✨ a reintroduction post!!
HI! I’m Matlin (pronounced Mate-lin. “Caitlin with an M.”)
I started Minimized in 2017 and am a single mom to the goofiest 3 year old girl, but you probably already know that if you’ve been following for a bit. Things you may not know:
• I earned my masters then joined Teach For America (most people join TFA to get their masters while working, but I like to do things a little backwards, I guess!) I taught 4th & 1st grade before diving headfirst into this business.
• I’ve lived in NC, Virginia, and Louisiana. I also did some of my student teaching during grad school in Belize & so badly want to go back.
• I LOVE spicy foods and put hot sauce or hot honey on things probably more than I should. I rarely drink anymore, but if I do, it’s probably a spicy margarita.
• I am an introvert and love my alone time, but I have a really tough time sitting in *silence.* (Not that there’s much of that with a toddler.) I constantly have an audiobook or podcast going while I’m working, but most of the time have to rewind constantly if I want to know what’s going on 😂
Thanks for joining me here on IG, and I hope the content from me & my team helps or inspires you in some way towards your organizing goals!
❤️
