I used to love the original podcast. I looked forward to my Thursday commute every week because this meant a new podcast with Emily. Now I have to pay to read something every week? I listen to podcasts because it *simplifies* my life… I can do this while driving, doing dishes, laundry, etc… I...Read full review »

I used to love this podcast and look forward to it every week, but it’s not the same. I miss Emily. The episodes are also so short, 15 minutes and filled with adds. Only one episode a week is sad. And most episodes still feel like they are reading from a script. I hope 2024 is better. I...Read full review »

New episodes feel like a copy of The Lazy Genius without offering any of the credit.

I used to really look forward to the podcast but since Emily has not been on it doesn’t feel true to her brand anymore. She was very genuine and I miss that. I understand including your team but to completely remove herself is a bummer. Also am disappointed that to get her blog you need to...Read full review »

I really enjoy listening to Emily Ley’s Simplified podcast. I find it engaging and helpful in all topics they discuss. Thank you for being real with us and talking about real topics!

CaitlinJay88 expressed it so well. The original podcast was perfect. Just what I was looking for. I know this is a business but to me you have lost your original focus—life simplified. Your team is lovely but not what I signed up for. Unfortunately, they sound like Emily wannabes. Something is...Read full review »

I loved Emily for years, absorbing her content across channels and mediums, implementing her strategies, and purchasing impactful products from Simplified or those she recommends elsewhere. I was a total fangirl. Unfortunately it feels like the brand is moving away from its simplicity focus -...Read full review »

Basing my one star on having the hypocrite Elizabeth Holmes as a guest speaker. What a shame. The whole brand has also turned into a money grab. Having to pay for “special” pod casts or for “special” blog posts. Just a lot of ick with that.
Heidi22532 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/05/23
Unfortunately, Simplified isn’t simplifying much of anything anymore. All the new palettes, patterns, voices, and random topics add layers of complexity instead of bringing the peace and order the brand once promised — the reason I’ve followed, subscribed, and purchased for years. Can’t focus on...Read full review »

Thanks for the specifically Christian perspective on simplifying: much of the world’s population is hungry and/or homeless. 50,000 dead in recent earthquakes in south-east Turkiye calls us all to simplify and focus on others.

I used to look forward to every Thursday with Emily to get actionable advice on how to simplify one part of my crazy life as a working mom. Her tips have truly been life changing. The new version of two gals chatting is fine, but not helpful and definitely not for me. I miss Emily:-(
DoubleDawgDad via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/31/23
I used to listen to the Simplified podcast religiously when Emily did all the episodes, but the recent transition of rotating co-hosts has not been an improvement. Emily’s voice was soothing and pleasant, and the new hosts are…not (Jessa has a very annoying voice and often slurs her words). The...Read full review »

I’ve been listening since day 1 and am on year 5 of purchasing Simplified planners. I have also purchased Emily’s books. So, please hear this as I am a genuine customer/fan. With the addition of the three new co-hosts, I’m not enjoying the pod and find myself skipping episodes. The new gals...Read full review »

Love her dinner and Aldi episodes. Funny clever and useful
alysoncohen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/23
I hopped on to listen to a 20 minute podcast episode and half of it is ads!!! And the podcast sounds scripted instead of like a conversation. Not my favorite go-to podcast.
kateg987987 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/18/23
I Love Emily, Simplified, all of it- for years! I want to love the podcast too but there are SO many ads. Other podcasts that are equally amazing don’t seem to have this problem? Will still listen from time to time.

I have always loved Emily Ley but her podcast just takes it to a new level. So uplifting and motivating. I’ve never walked from listening feeling down and unhappy. I cannot recommend enough!
Sena0947 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/23
Liz’s first episode was amazing. Her voice was so soothing. Her honesty was heartwarming and relatable. She came across as genuine and sincere. I’m sure she helped a lot of people feel seen and gave a lot of helpful tips. Happy for her that she is in her dream job and many congrats on her new...Read full review »

I loved the Aldi episode and hearing from Jessa. So enjoyable!!
mommalindafarmer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/16/23
I love tuning in to Simplified! Jessa absolutely rocked her first solo podcast. Great tips, super funny, and a bright spot in my day!
Jenny Leigh H via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/23
I love Emily Ley, and I’ve always loved her products, but the addition of some new team members to the podcast really added the additional flair. The Aldi episode was fantastic!

It feels like you’re sitting in the living room hanging out with your friends. Theee ladies always have great ideas with personalities that are kind and super welcoming. This is one of my favorite podcast to listen to especially on days where I’m not in the best spirits. I’m grateful that they...Read full review »

I love Emily and almost everything she does except her podcast! I wish she would just talk or chat or interview someone. I hate that I feel like she is reading something scripted or pre-typed. I prefer podcasts to be more authentic and her podcasts sound like she is reading a book.
Mamamoe4 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/23
I found Emily’s instagram and joined the 30 day challenge, which led me here to the podcast. I figured it would be some cleaning and “simplifying” tips about lifestyle and schedule. You guys, this podcast is SO MUCH more than that. I find myself scrolling to listen to all the oldies and goodies!...Read full review »

Happy 40th Birthday, Emily Ley! I recently discovered Emily and Simplified (I purposely live a digital minimalist life), and have been thrilled to hear an authentic, common sense young voice reminding everyone of what is important, and how to achieve it. Emily addresses tough topics honestly, in...Read full review »

As a mom to two girls and a creative entrepreneur, this is exactly what I need. Emily Ley’s podcast and planners are a life giving resource. It hits the mark on so many levels of motherhood, home making, relationships and mental health. Practical, simple and relatable. I love this podcast!

Emily has a sweet vibe. I enjoy her show!

I’m new to this podcast, and just ordered my first Emily Ley planner! I absolutely adore this podcast, thank you for sharing your heart with me, and the world.

I love this podcast! Emily is like my best friend in my ears!

I absolutely adore this podcast! My Thursday morning commutes are always a little better because of every new episode. I love the range of topics that are covered.

Thank you for providing tips for planning life, and multiple ways to do it!

On those hectic days where I’m trying to keep it all together I reach for this podcast. She has the best insight and practical advice. Her words are so calming and I couldn’t be more grateful for the peace it brings.
Cossie1msu via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/22
Simple and sweet. Love the episodes on slowing down and what truly matters.
Boklisa via Apple Podcasts · Sweden · 11/13/22
This podcast has been deleted and redownloaded many times in my podcast library. I loved it at the beginning and have always enjoyed her books. At some point, it felt less and less relevant. Every once in a while a suggested episode pops up and I’m reeled back in. Many times, though, I feel as...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to Emily for about a month now and am truly enjoying her podcasts. She takes the hectic life of motherhood, admits to the challenges and chaos, and helps breathe new air into it. Her blessings at the end always bring a tear to my eye because it’s as if she has just looked into...Read full review »

I am an author also. I am speaking about “Togetherness” next week and just listened to episode 4 about friendship. My book Broken Like Me deals with this too. Any way, it was an inspiring episode and gave me great thing to think about. Hey…and if you did reach out, I’d love to maybe collaborate?
Joe437555 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/01/22
Super love this podcast. Short, sweet, helpful and the perfect podcast to make me want to be productive!

I listen to such a broad range of podcasts and Simplified is absolutely one of my go-to’s when life is moving too fast.

This podcast feels like having a hot cup of tea and a warm hug from a friend. I really look forward to every episode, and the variety of subjects that are covered. I appreciate the tactical advice, especially in the season of life that I am in. Thank you, Emily!

All the “warm & fuzzies” you get from visiting with a best friend, in the form of a podcast.

This podcast is a quiet and relaxing conversation that makes seemingly overwhelming topics more palatable. Some of us moms with ADHD (even the ones who are still type A and love organization and strategy) really struggle with simplifying our processes and creating structure that lasts.

I love listening to the Simplified podcast. Emily and her guests are enjoyable to listen to, relatable, and give you practical tips to minimalist, streamline, and organize.
