Forget the frantic itch of FOMO—we’re officially entering our JOMO era and learning to love the sweet, sweet sound of saying "no." In this episode, we’re deconstructing those polished social media highlight reels so you can stop comparing your everyday "behind-the-scenes" to someone else’s curated best. We’ll teach you how to "play out the tape" and see through the social pressure to start prioritizing your own peace of mind. Imagine a life so aligned with your values that staying in with a book feels like winning the lottery instead of missing out. Join us as we celebrate the absolute magic of being exactly where you want to be!
