Chatting to journalist and bestselling author Oliver Burkeman. His new book is Meditations for Mortals.


We discuss:

  • How to embrace 'imperfectionism' in your life
  • What to do when you feel like you're 'behind' or always 'busy'.
  • Why doing the things that matter to you can be so hard - and how to get started.
  • The productivity debt and how to stop productivity from defining your self worth.
  • Staying sane when the world's a mess
