What really matters—and what’s just noise? In this episode of Be the Sun, Not the Salt, Dr. Harry Cohen and Connie Fontaine invite you to hit pause and reflect with Chapter 25: “Decide What Matters Most.” If you’ve ever felt torn between speaking up or letting something go, this gentle nudge is for you.

What’s the Big Idea?

  • Discover how to spot the difference between life’s real priorities and those little annoyances that try to steal your peace.
  • Hear how Harry and Connie navigate tricky moments in family, work, and everyday life.
  • Get inspired to build your own “green room” of trusted voices, so you can check your perspective before reacting.
  • Walk away with a powerful question to ask yourself next time you’re caught in the moment (it might just change your day).

You won’t get a list of dos and don’ts here—just relatable stories, practical wisdom, and a few surprising insights that will have you examining what’s truly important. Whether you’re looking for tips on prioritization, self-reflection, or simply want to show up as your best self, this episode is packed with inspiration (and a little Victor Hugo for good measure).

Ready to focus on what matters most? Hit play and join us for a conversation that might just change the way you see your day.

(Mini-episode, maximum perspective—perfect for your next walk, coffee break, or moment of reflection!)
