Toni talks to Jo Hutton about leaving a busy career in journalism for a quieter life in Norfolk, and how her morning routine now follows Hal Elrod's "Miracle Morning" method, with plenty of reading, fresh air and very little rushing. They dig into nervous system regulation, the difference between a trigger and a glimmer, and the self-help books that changed Toni's life, from The Kindness Method to Ikigai.
