Episode notes

When I was a lawyer and didn't feel that same sense of meaning, I still soldered through all the difficult things because I'm just sort of trained to do that. But now I hardly like to take vacation because I love so much with you. You have to do it in the wrong place. So there's something about on the one hand, for sure, you have to weather all kinds of difficulties, but you have to first be situated correctly. It doesn't mean there aren't some weeks where you hate writing and it's, you know, the downside of it, but it doesn't necessarily mean you quit and throw it all out and walk away.
