E9: Countering Overwhelm

In this, the first interview of this podcast, I interview my boss! I do have a day job and am lucky to work for a company I believe in and would endorse in my free time on my own personal platform.

Rather than discussing spending your time like you mean it, let's consider how you can spend money in ways that support your values and also save you time.
