In this episode, recorded live from Midway Airport, we unpack Seth’s reminder that it’s not time we’re missing—it’s energy and motivation.
We explore what it really means to prioritize, how inertia can work for (or against) you, and why treating yourself like a plant might be the simplest productivity hack. Along the way, we share practical tips for creating motivation—from walking breaks to ChatGPT brainstorms—and reflect on why energy management matters more than time management.
Join us as we reflect on harnessing focus, finding flow, and building rhythms that help us do what matters most.
