Welcome back to the podcast. This episode is split into two very distinct parts: one long, meandering reflection, and then tools and insights.

So, if you're new to the podcast and you don't give a flying [expletive] about my experience or internal state — the stuff I've been working through — then skip to the bit that I've labelled "lesson."

That part is about how to ensure we don't spend too much time in one particular mode or zone — it's about strategising your life and your calendar, similar to how you'd train, so you don't get burnt out.

If you're an OG and actually interested in the deeper, more reflective side of me, then listen to the beginning — it's much more raw and vulnerable.

I hope you enjoy the episode. Drop us a DM and let me know what you think.
