Sarah and Laura open this episode chatting about recent longer family vacations they have taken, and then they delve into workday shutdown! This post was inspired by a recent blog post of Sarah's (https://theshubox.com/2023/07/feeling-done.html) - many readers commented they also struggled feeling 'finished' at the end of a less clearly defined workday (academics, entrepreneurs, part time workers, and more!).

Laura and Sarah discuss whether feeling 'done' is really something worth aiming for, and strategies to cultivate that sense if it is something you are seeking.

In the Q&A, a listener writes in asking about swim class for kids - when / how to do it, and are lessons worthwhile in young children?
