Episode 3784:

Courtney Carver invites us to reclaim our time and peace by becoming "gentle warriors," intentionally rejecting the glorification of busyness in favor of presence, gratitude, and calm. Through simple shifts like silencing notifications, asking better questions, and embracing solitude, she shows how we can trade overwhelm for a more meaningful and spacious life.

Quotes to ponder:

"I will work with people who want my best, not my busiest."

"Ban the word 'busy' and see what it feels like to talk about your life differently."

"The opposite of a busy life isn’t a lazy life, it’s a full life."
