Instead of piling on more, what if we focused on what we could remove? In this snackable episode from our Essential series, Kelly speaks with American scientist, engineering professor, and best-selling author Leidy Klotz, who wrote the New York Times bestseller Subtract: The Untapped Science of Less. You'll learn about the science behind our natural tendency to add rather than subtract, and how we can counter this instinct by consciously considering subtraction as a powerful option. Plus, Kelly and Leidy share practical examples of how to apply the power of subtraction in everyday life. Listen to the full conversation in Episode 155: Subtract, The Science of Less with Leidy Klotz.
