10. Living By Design: A Closer Look at Essentialism

Using concepts from Greg McKeown’s Book, Essentialism: The disciplined pursuit of less, Kristy makes the argument that only once we give ourselves permission to stop trying to do it all, to stop saying yes to everyone, can we make your highest contribution towards the things that really matter. She teaches some key tenets of essentialism including the need to prioritize our own lives before everyone and everything else will. We explore some tools that help us decide what our highest work is, how to cut out good opportunities for something better and how to give a graceful no. Join us for a conversation that will help us commit to things that are truly important and restore the quality of our life’s work!
