In this episode, we’re joined by Urmi Hossain, a finance professional, author, speaker, and podcast host who shares a simple, grounding practice that’s become a powerful anchor in her busy life: five minutes of daily journaling.

Urmi reflects on how wearing many hats left little space for self-reflection — and how committing to a short, guided journaling practice helped her reclaim quiet time for herself. By choosing a journal with prompts and limiting the practice to just five minutes, she removed the pressure of “doing it perfectly” and focused instead on consistency, presence, and gratitude. To make the ritual feel nourishing, Urmi creates a cozy atmosphere with candlelight and essential oils, transforming a small habit into a meaningful act of self-care.
