- I Started Collecting Hobbies
What are you without your job title?
In this Playing Life solo episode, I talk about why hobbies matter for identity and mental health, how I started collecting them (tennis, cooking, coffee, chess), why leisure used to be rare (or status), Maslow's pyramid in an age of social comparison, and why actively doing a hobby feels different from doom scrolling or binge watching.

About Playing Life: Open World After School
From the publisher's feed
School's the tutorial. After that, I'm still exploring.
We rarely get enough time with friends to understand how they actually see the world through the lens of their work. On Playing Life, I make that time.
In guest episodes, guests from different professions share what their work has taught them about life. In solo episodes, I raise the other parts of life we're all figuring out, including work, family, friendship, love, hobbies, money, health, home, and time alone, without pretending I have the answer.
