  • The Enshittification of Everything, Everywhere, All at Once
    Feb 23 2026

    In this mini episode, I vent about the moment I realized everything feels harder than it should, from parking apps to paywalls to bots talking to bots, and I dig into the enshittification of everything, everywhere, all at once. I break down how the obsession with optimization keeps degrading our tools, our platforms, and our attention, why AI productivity hype deserves serious side eye, and what it might cost us if we outsource the parts of ourselves that make us human.

  • Feel like you're always behind and never enough? Blame work-life "balance."
    Jan 16 2026

    I’m doubling down on the live grenade I tossed into the room when I said work-life balance is bullshit, and in this mini-episode I unpack why building our work around our lives still doesn’t mean balance is the answer. I share why the pursuit of work-life balance only leads to guilt, why in our hyper-connected, post-pandemic hellscape it’s not just futile but meaningless, and how chasing equal time between work and life can leave us miserable. I also dig into the shift that changed everything for me after reading Four Thousand Weeks, why I’m no longer interested in balance but fulfillment, and how embracing a conscious, strategic imbalance might be the only way to create meaningful work, be at peace with how I spend my time, and avoid wasting these four thousand weeks.

  • When setting goals triggers an existential crisis
    Jan 14 2026

    What happens when the simple question “What do you want to achieve this year? And why?” leads to an existential crisis?

    In this mini-episode, we pull back the curtain on why setting goals feels harder than ever, why most people aren’t at peace with how they’re spending their time, and how the endless chase for more money, more time, and more balance quietly keeps us stuck. We tease a simpler, more honest way to ask the goals question, unpack why “work-life balance” might be the wrong thing to pursue altogether, and set the stage for the mindset shift that can finally help you stop spinning in circles and feel at peace with your time.
