Something More Human

In Praise of the Meandering Life


Listen Later

What if freedom and fulfillment came from being bad at things on purpose? What if you let yourself suck at something… and still loved doing it? We're exploring the art of meandering; embracing hobbies, conversations, and careers that don't follow a straight line in order to uncover what it means to live a life rooted in curiosity, not productivity

Bonus: maybe you'll finally sign up for that class you've been putting off.
