Studies show that the average American spends more than 6 hours every day watching TV and on social media. That’s 6 hours per day that could be spent making progress on your dreams. In this episode, Eva shares her 3-part strategy for reclaiming many of those hours, and how you can ensure that this newfound time will be spent on working towards your big dreams.
