Episode notes
There might be a certain season of your life where work is the primary focus and you let other things slide.

We try to maintain this feeling of omnipotent control over our lives, how we seek to feel like we're not actually sacrificing anything in order to do anything else. You are making sacrifices. Everything you do is a choice not to do everything else. And so there's something very much to be said if you can, although these days it has to be a sort of conscious effort.
