Summary

What if everything you ever wanted isn't what you actually want? Twenty-something, suit-clad, and upwardly mobile, Joshua Fields Millburn thought he had everything anyone could ever want. Until he didn't anymore.

Blindsided by the loss of his mother and his marriage, Millburn started questioning the life he had built for himself.

Then he discovered minimalism...and everything started to change.

Four years later, Millburn had embraced simplicity. In the search for something more substantial than compulsory consumption and the broken American dream, he jettisoned most of his material possessions, paid off loads of crippling debt, and walked away from his six-figure career.

Once everything was gone, what was left? Not a how-to book but a why-to book, Everything That Remains is the touching, surprising story of what happened when one young man decided to let go of everything and begin living more deliberately. Heart-rending, uplifting, and deeply personal, this engrossing memoir is peppered with insightful interruptions by Ryan Nicodemus, Millburn's best friend of 20 years.

Insightful and enjoyable

Listened to their podcast for a while now so was inspired to give this a listen. An amazing and insightful story that’s inspired me to make some changes in my own life. Looking forward to reading/hearing their other books. Great narration, very engaging!

Listened to in two sittings

Now in my 52nd year of life found the book I have been searching for to help me get rid of the “stuff” that is keeping me anchored to an cluttered life.
I’m now at the beginning of my journey.
This book is the story of the Minimalists, not a goofy self help book but a story to give you ideas about how to direct your life and adapt ideas that they talk about.

Down to earth and inspirational read

Really great book by some awesome people. Makes you really question your life choices and helps you realise these bad habits that modern day humans have come to be addicted to!
Narrator wasn't the best and didn't have the enthusiasm in certain chapters where I feel the author reading aloud would have conveyed a more meaningful speech however still not bad.
Great book from some average down to earth guys!

Incredible!

Minimalism is all about using less, so I'll simply say Incredible! Joshua and Ryan's story really is incredible. Enough said? Take the journey through this book and you'll see.
