Strategist and accountability coach Kelsey Green joins us to map a saner path through the attention economy, showing how digital minimalism can boost focus, deepen relationships, and transform sleep without ditching every tool you love.

If this resonates, follow and subscribe, share with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a review so more people can reclaim their attention.
