Quotes from This Episode
"The math is telling us that we're spending the majority of our conscious existence just waiting. Waiting around for Friday. Waiting around for vacation, waiting around for retirement, waiting around to actually start living our lives, and I don't know about you, but I was not okay with that."
"When we feel that Sunday scares, our body is trying to tell us, like, hey, something's not aligning here, something's not right."
"Your life is not something that starts when you clock out on Friday. Your life is happening right now, all of it, including Monday through Friday."
"You deserve to be excited about your life, not just 32 hours on the weekend, but all of it. You deserve work that fuels your soul, or at least doesn't actively deplete it."
"When we accept that work is supposed to suck, that becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. When we decide that our weekday hours are just as valuable as our weekend hours, when we start protecting our energy and pursuing work that actually matters to us, things start to shift."
