WHEN:

Every other Monday, listeners are able to tune in to iTunes, Stitcher Radio or stop by the blog to catch the weekly podcast.

WHAT:

TSLL is beginning a new chapter and debuting its first podcast The Simple Sophisticate. What is a Simple Sophisticate you may be wondering?

The simple sophisticate is someone who prefers quality over quantity, sensible living over mindless consumption, personal style instead of trendy fashions, has an insatiable curiosity for life’s endless questions and a desire to live a truly fulfilling life rather than being led around by the nose. Inspired by her lifestyle blog The Simply Luxurious Life, Shannon Ables (the original Simple Sophisticate) shares with listeners tips on how to live a refined life on an everyday income. From achieving your goals, preparing a memorable meal, creating a capsule wardrobe, traveling the world (Francophiles tune in as Paris is a favorite destination), and living life to the fullest without breaking the bank, living well is really quite simple.

WHY:

TSLL blog continues to reach readers around the world, and now, whether you are driving, exercising, working in the yard or traveling, you can listen each week to an idea-packed episode that will offer inspiration and motivation to help keep you striving for the life of your dreams all the while keeping you well-informed and clothed in your signature style.

The Soundtrack for the Podcast:

The music on Monday’s episode and the primary music for the entire podcast is titled “Walking in Paris” and the music for  Sunday’s Au Courant Weekly is titled “Fresh and Sunny Bossa“. (click on the song title to be directed to the purchase page)

Ahhhh France - Normandy, France, and their colorful spring crops as seen during my trip this past April. I share this pic today because a new episode is on the podcast sharing My 10 Things I Do to Lessen Jet Lag (flying from the west coast to Western Europe), and nope, there is no cure-all, as I share at the top of the show, but there are things to reduce its effects. Tune in to Episode #333 on @thesimplesophisticatepodcast now wherever you enjoy your favorite podcasts.

Weekend calm and grounding (whilst 'standing' on the clearest blue water watching the trout swim below).
A new month begins and that means a new A Cuppa Moments w/Shannon video chat with fellow TOP Tier Members from around the world, each living their own unique simply luxurious life. 

This month's chat is more than 50+ minutes full of books, films, French series and events, take walks with Norman, spend time in my garden, articles that caught my eye and much more. 

Wishing you a wonderful start to July. 😌
Summer mornings at Le Papillon.

Morning meditation on the garden porch with Norman. 

In TSLL's free monthly newsletter which arrives on the last day of each month, along with the round-up of the month's post, an exclusive letter from the editor is shared with subscribers offering inspiration for the new month ahead. Just a handful of hours ago, June's monthly newsletter arrived in inboxes, and the letter this month focused on the discovering of a deeper peace and calm in my days than I have ever known before and sharing ideas for subscribers to savor and create their own as well. 

If you would like to sign up for this monthly newsletter (TOP Tier Members are automatically signed up), there are many routes to the page on the blog to do so: (1) click on the link in my IG profile and then scroll to Newsletters in the list, (2) visit the blog and click Newsletters in the upper right-hand corner or (3) visit directly ➡️ https://thesimplyluxuriouslife.com/newsletter-signup/

Wishing you a wonderful final day in this month of June. Bonne journée 😌☀️
