What if the reason time feels like it’s flying isn’t just about busyness, but because we can’t narrate what’s happening to us? In this episode, I dive into why our workdays often feel blank or unspeakable, and how this isn’t just about stress or memory, it’s about how modern labor severs us from narrative itself.

Drawing from Severance and the philosophy of Paul Ricoeur, I explore how time only becomes real when we can shape it into stories, and what it means that so much of our work life can’t be shaped that way. If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and felt like decades slipped by, this conversation is for you.
