An amazing conversation with best-selling author of Over Work, Brigid Schulte this past week.
In this 60-second highlight, we draw from the surprising wisdom of Charles Darwin as we discuss the value of time.
Darwin himself only worked about four hours a day, often going on long walks where he did much of his thinking.
So was Darwin a slacker?
It's time to rethink the narrative about work/life balance, productivity, and energy.
