In today’s episode, Tyra dives into the power of slowing down and making time for what truly fills us up. We often get caught up in the hustle, rushing through tasks, goals, and deadlines, but we forget to live in the moment and connect with the people around us. Tyra opens up about how she’s been embracing the simple joys of life, from spending time with friends to practicing pottery, and reflects on how it's changed her perspective. From making time for meaningful relationships to recognizing that life is happening right now, Tyra encourages listeners to stop waiting for the "right time" and start prioritizing what matters most.
This week’s Affirmation is “ I make space for joy, connection, and the things that fill me up”
