Ed Mylett talks with Priscilla Shirer about the transformative power of saying no—not as rejection, but as alignment with your priorities. They explore how protecting your time honors what matters, how to trust God in uncertainty, and why creating margin in your life is essential to living fully rather than just chasing momentum.

A packed calendar isn't a badge of honor—it's a barrier to the very life you're trying to build. Real margin (empty space) allows for breathing, thinking, connection, and being interrupted.

Trust God (or the process) by doing your part completely and then releasing control of the results. Stop trying to do God's job.
