066: How a Dry Month Complements Mental Minimalism

Clutter isn't *just* physical stuff. Clutter is old ideas. Clutter is not-so-great habits that don't serve us; clutter is anything that takes us further from our best selves, too. Embarking on a month without alcohol is a powerful way to live a life of intention. Here's how.
