What if you could drop 80% of the stress you're carrying right now—without changing your job, location, or circumstances? In this episode of Genius On Tap, we unpack "The Empty Backpack Principle," a mental model inspired by minimalist thinking and decision detox. Discover how to identify what's actually weighing you down, why most of it isn't yours to carry, and how to walk lighter, think clearer, and move faster—starting today.

Challenge:

Write down 3 things you’re carrying (mentally or emotionally) that you didn’t choose—and drop one of them before the day ends.
