revolve around
Center one's focus
To revolve around something is to orbit it or turn on it as a center—the Earth revolves around the sun.
The phrase usually appears figuratively: a life that revolves around work, a conversation that revolves around money.
What something revolves around is its focus, its organizing principle, the thing everything else relates to.
