The Third Door for a Polymathic Doctor with Ali Abdaal [Interview]

Today we are talking with Ali Abdaal the self-proclaimed productivity guru, former junior doctor, podcaster, and Youtuber!

"How do we define ourselves, other than by the things that we do?"

It was a lot of fun having him on, and we go into some really cool thought processes. Such as productivity, when to relax rather than work, and finding the third door!
