In a world where the hustle culture often glorifies working to the point of exhaustion, Kemi brings us a refreshing perspective on how to work smarter, not harder. This episode isn't your typical productivity talk; it's a deep dive into the nuanced strategy of using procrastination as a tool for success. Yes, you read that right—procrastination, the very thing we've been taught to avoid like the plague, can actually be your ally in achieving professional excellence. 

 To be clear, this isn't about encouraging procrastination across the board, but rather about understanding when to apply it effectively to maximize creativity and minimize unnecessary stress. Whether you're grappling with talk slides, abstract submissions, or crafting SOPs, this episode is your guide to breaking the cycle of last-minute panic without sacrificing your high standards.
