The Mental Offload Podcast

Strategic Subtraction


Listen Later

As the year starts, most people are thinking about new goals and activities to add to their calendars.

I'm thinking about what to subtract.

It sounds a little bit radical.

But what if the real key to thriving isn't adding more stuff to your plate, but subtracting?

In this week's episode of The Mental Offload Podcast, I discuss how subtraction creates more.

More time. More bandwidth. More relaxation.

I'll also explore the cultural and workplace pressures keep us overcommitted, and make us hesitant to subtract.

You'll leave this episode with practical strategies to decide what stays on your plate—and what you can let go of for good.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why subtraction feels so hard, and how it leaves to overstuffed schedules (and lives)

  • 4 strategies to decide what to subtract

  • How to confidently manage pushback as you offload
