5-MINUTE FRIDAY: The Power Of 'Why Not Now?'

Emily reflects on wrapping up her travels in Australia, leaning into spontaneous "yes" moments, and answering a listener question about her reading routines. She shares what she’s looking forward to most about returning home to New York City (from her own bed to familiar local spots), the gratitude she’s carrying back with her, and how leaning into open-mindedness led to unexpected local connections in Bondi and an impromptu trip up to Noosa to visit Nike coach Lydia O'Donnell.
