My guest for today is Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals and Meditations for Mortals. We look into the paradox of productivity, exploring why our relentless pursuit of doing more doesn't necessarily lead to a happier or more fulfilling life. Oliver shares insights on how letting go of the impossible quest to "get it all done" can open the door to genuine fulfilment and peace of mind. By embracing self-compassion and seeing imperfection as a strength, we uncover how personally redefining success can transform our approach to life. Oliver offers practical strategies to help us shift our focus from constant busyness to making more meaningful choices with our finite time.
