"For nearly two years, Ashlee Piper challenged herself to buy nothing new. And in the process, she got out of debt, cut clutter, crushed her goals, and became healthier and happier than ever--all the things she‘d always wanted to do but ‘never had time to‘ (because she was mindlessly scrolling, shopping, spending, and stressing). After a decade of fine-tuning, [this book] guides readers through the same revolutionarily simple challenge that has helped thousands of global participants find freedom and fulfillment in just thirty days.
