Feeling stretched thin and a little invisible? This episode gives you a simple, two-minute Travel Prescription Certificate to start reclaiming space—without dismantling your life. We talk the hot coffee moment (after decades of lukewarm), why streamlining comes first, and how to close a few of those 52 tabs in your head so you can actually hear yourself think. Solo when you want it, company when you choose it.
In this episode you’ll hear:
- What the Travel Prescription Certificate is—and how to fill it in over one hot coffee.
- A quick framework to streamline your week so time-out becomes time that’s truly yours.
- Why “choose space over default” becomes easier when you print it and stick it on the fridge.
- A one-minute An Insider’s Guide to Long-Term Love note for the Blokes who want to show up better.
