What do you think about the sentiment less is more? In this week’s episode Tyra explores the power of doing less — and how that intentional slowing down can lead to more clarity, creativity, and peace. We’ve been taught that rest is something we have to earn, but what if rest is actually the secret to becoming our fullest selves?
Through personal stories, gentle reminders, and a few hard truths, Tyra invites you to rethink your relationship with rest and reimagine what productivity can look like when it's rooted in presence instead of pressure.
This week’s affirmation is “I choose peace over pressure, and presence over perfection.”
3 Biggest Takeaways from this episode:
- Rest is not a reward — it’s a right.
- Taking breaks can boost your creativity and productivity, not block it.
- If you’re not careful, constantly “doing” can cause you to miss the life you're actually living.
