In today’s world, busyness has become a badge of honor – but it’s secretly burning people out, dulling their creativity and damaging their client relationships. That is especially true for those in real estate, who often feel they must be “on 24/7.” In this powerful conversation, Brian Buffini sits down with Juliet Funt, the founder and CEO of an efficiency firm, as well as the author of the book, A Minute to Think: Reclaim Creativity, Conquer Busyness, and Do Your Best Work, to talk about why we’re so addicted to activity. 


Drawing on her decades of research and work with top organizations, Juliet shares advice on how you can build more “white space” into your schedule. She also explains the concept of “hallucinated urgency” and how the “four thieves of time” hijack your day. Whether you’re a perpetually “on” entrepreneur, a frenzied realtor or a leader trying to refocus your team, this episode will help you slow down, think clearly and show up as your calm, confident best self.

“White space is simply time without assignment – the open, flexible time that used to live between things and let us recalibrate.” – Juliet Funt 


“We all want to do every single project and plan, but we need to learn the gear of taking things out as well.” — Juliet Funt 


“If you do start dialing down into the population, there's a lot of people in much more pain than I would guess you're in because every single day is a chaotic, fearful, reactive flow.” — Juliet Funt 


“I have a practice all day long, I will stop and say, ‘What am I doing?’ And I just stop for a second and I'll see if the thing that I am actually doing is of value to my dreams. And a lot of times you catch yourself and it's not.” — Juliet Funt
