Have you ever turned a simple task into a full-blown project? We’ve all been there! In this episode of Be the Sun, Not the Salt, Dr. Harry Cohen and Connie Fontaine tackle Chapter 14, “Don’t Be a Complexifier,” from Harry’s book. Together, they unpack why simplicity is not only powerful but also essential for improving our lives and relationships.

We’ll explore how overthinking and complicating things can weigh us down—and how keeping it simple can be a game-changer, everywhere from military strategy to daily life.

You’ll also hear practical tips on how to:

  • Avoid overthinking and focus on what truly matters
  • Build habits that reinforce clarity and ease
  • Recognize when complexity is sneaking into your day—and stop it in its tracks

While simple ideas might seem obvious, they’re not always easy to implement. That’s why Harry and Connie emphasize the importance of daily practice and gentle nudges to stay on track. By focusing on small, consistent actions, you can create a life that’s lighter, stronger, and more fulfilling.

Tune in for personal stories, actionable advice, and your weekly reminder to keep it simple—for yourself and those around you!
