About the book
Travelling across Britain and beyond, she seeks out people who have made dramatic life changes in pursuit of a more meaningful existence—from a former advertising executive now farming in Wales to a family growing their own food in the Scottish Highlands. Through honest conversations and personal reflections, Humble explores whether simplicity really does lead to greater happiness. She examines the challenges and rewards of downsizing, self-sufficiency, and stepping away from consumerism, whilst acknowledging that simple living looks different for everyone. The result is an inspiring and practical exploration of how we might all find more contentment by focusing on what truly matters.
