Episode 3523:

Asking for help and embracing minimalism transformed Jay Harrington’s life when he found himself overwhelmed by work and personal obligations. By subtracting instead of adding, decluttering possessions, streamlining his businesses, and prioritizing space over busyness, he created room for what truly mattered. His journey is a reminder that taking control of your life starts with courageous choices and that sometimes, less really is more.

Quotes to ponder:

"We all have two lives. The second one starts when we realize that we only have one."

"It’s okay if today you feel like a bystander in your own life, with someone else setting the agenda. What’s not okay is if you never retake control of your circumstances."

"So be courageous, because no one is going to grant you permission to live boldly."
