The average human lifespan is around 4,000 weeks - this sounds scary but it's also incredibly empowering. Journalist and Author Oliver Burkeman says that facing our finitude and how little control we have over our lives is key to living a truly fulfilling and meaningfully productive life. For many years Oliver wrote a popular weekly column on psychology, happiness and productivity for The Guardian called 'This Column Will Change Your Life' and has recently released his latest book 'Four Thousand Weeks: Time And How To Use It' which looks at how our obsessiveness with being busy and trying to master our time can actually make us more unhappy, avoid important decisions about our future and make us less in control of our lives. In the conversation we discuss what most productivity gurus get wrong about productivity, how you will never get everything done and why you should start embracing the fact of human finitude.🔗 CONNECT WITH OLIVER 📕 4000 Weeks Time And How To Use It 📧 Newsletter 💻 Website 🐦 Twitter🔗 CONNECT WITH ALI🎥 YouTube Channel🐦 Twitter📸 Instagram💻 Website👥 LinkedinFind the show notes and the transcript on the website: https://aliabdaal.com/podcast/Sponsored by BrilliantThis episode is kindly supported by Brilliant, the best way to learn maths, science and computer science online.

"It's not about what happens to you it's about how you respond when hard stuff happens" - Dr Julie SmithAfter practicing as a Clinical Psychologist for over a decade, Dr Julie Smith decided it was her mission to make high quality and engaging mental health education more accessible online. So she started using TikTok as a platform for therapy. A year and a bit later, Julie has built a following of over 3 million as an online educator. In the conversation we talk about her success as a creator as well as deep diving into some of my favourite chapters from her brand new book 'Why Did Nobody Tell Me This Before?' which takes a scientific approach to topics like motivation, self doubt, identity and what it means to live a meaningful life.🔗 CONNECT WITH JULIE 📕 Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? 📱TikTok 📸 Instagram 💻 Website 🎥 YouTube Channel 🐦 Twitter 🔗 CONNECT WITH ALI🎥 YouTube Channel🐦 Twitter📸 Instagram💻 Website👥 LinkedinFind the show notes and the transcript on the website: https://aliabdaal.com/podcast/Sponsored by BrilliantThis episode is kindly supported by Brilliant, the best way to learn maths, science and computer science online.

Deep Dive is the podcast that delves into the minds of entrepreneurs, creators and other inspiring people to uncover the philosophies, strategies and tools that help us live happier, healthier and more productive lives. In each episode, Ali has conversations with guests from wide-ranging areas around the five pillars of a good life: health, wealth, love, happiness and impact - to empower you to live your best life. If you'd like to join the journey make sure you're following the podcast on your favourite podcasting app or subscribe to the podcast on YouTube so you know when we release and episode.

As the first season of the podcast draws to a close I look back at some of the most inspiring moments from the season including from conversations with Ben Francis, Krissy Cela, Chris Williamson, Unjaded Jade, Mrwhosetheboss and Dr Grace Lordan. One of the biggest lessons I've learned from all the guests who've appeared this season is that we should embrace uncertainty and the idea of having a plan is a bit of a myth because really we're all working things out as we go along. I also want to say a big thank you if you've tuned into the podcast each week and an even bigger thank you if you've left a review on apple podcasts and subscribed because that really does help other people hear about the podcast. I hope you enjoy this season round-up and I'll see you in season 2.FULL EPISODES ⬇️E1 Ben Francis E8 Krissy Cela E9 Chris Williamson E2 Unjaded Jade E11 MrwhosethebossE6 Dr Grace Lordan🔗 CONNECT WITH ALI🎥 YouTube Channel🐦 Twitter📸 Instagram💻 Website👥 LinkedinFind the show notes and the transcript on the website: https://aliabdaal.com/podcast/📚Check out my New York Times Bestselling book Feel-Good Productivity!Amazon WebsiteLeave a reviewIf you enjoy listening to the podcast, please do leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts - even one line helps!
