Productivity Alchemy

Hi folks! We're back this week with a discussion of the pressures of deadlines, and how much work we're both putting in. This also includes a brief discussion of the difficulties of being the person working with people two very different time zones. We then have a long talk with returning guest Michelle Wexelblat and her experiences with Burnout. It's a long one, but worth it!
