Audio version of video on YouTube. 

I talk to Lyndsay Ansell about why, sometimes, Development (and IT more generally) can feel exhausting, why that is, and what we can do about it.

This is a non-technical chat, but I think it's hugely valuable to everyone. It's really important to look after yourself and understand what's working and what's not, especially at the moment. I found it really useful to talk through these ideas with Lyndsay and I hope you will do.

In the first of what I'm hoping might become a regular series, I sit down with Lyndsay Ansell, Customer Success Manager at Modality Systems. However, we're not talking about products or technology. We're talking about how working at home all the time is hard, and ways we've found to cope with that.

This is a non-technical chat, but I think it's hugely valuable to everyone. It's really important to look after yourself and understand what's working and what's not, especially at the moment. I found it really useful to talk through these ideas with Lyndsay and I hope you will do.
