Borrowed Time: The Price of Convenience in Modern Life by Laura Lee

We live in a world that worships speed—where faster is praised as smarter, and convenience is treated as success. But what if the shortcuts we rely on are quietly costing us the one thing we can't replace: time?

In Borrowed Time, Laura Lee shares a deeply personal yet universal exploration of the hidden costs of convenience culture. Through honest reflections on burnout, restlessness, and rediscovery, she invites readers to rethink the pace of modern life and to rediscover the freedom that comes from slowing down.
