Episode Details

Your "I have no time" story doesn't hold up — and the data proves it. Laura Vanderkam, bestselling author of Big Time, joins us to share what thousands of time logs actually reveal, why complexity and chaos are very different things, and how a simple weekly planning habit puts you back in control of your career, your relationships, and yourself. Plus: the hidden hours in your day, how to say yes to the things that scare you, and why your future self is shaped entirely by the memories your current self is willing to go make… if you can just get past your stories about time!
