Steffi says there's always a balance between doing things to day tat you want to do, versus investing in the future. Both she and Lek decided early in their career s that they wouldn't sit in a cubicle. They both agree on this idea that you really shouldn't trade to day for to morrow. 'A year of your life is a not trivial portion of your life,' writes Steffi.
In this episode, Steph and Cal dive deep into traditions, the societal defaults that shape how we think and act in the world. They start by exploring the origins of the 40-hour work week, modern alternatives, and how we can rethink the idea of retirement. In the second half of the episode, they explore how the ways in which commonly held beliefs about monogamy, love, and marriage may not set people up for the life they want to live. If you're interested in questioning the norms and designing a life that works for you, this episode is worth a listen.
