Description: Feeling fried from carrying everyone’s emotions, decisions, and spiritual growth on your back? Kevin A. Thompson, author of Stay in Your Lane: Worry Less, Love More, and Get Things Done, offers a relief-giving rethink on how to let go: what if peace, joy, and actual influence show up the minute you quit steering other people’s lives?
