I highly recommend this podcast episode below because it is so relatable.
We are often in a position where a huge percentage of our time is structured. We may feel like we have little to no free time at all. This is detrimental to our mental and physical health. And it turns out it is not especially good for our relationships or our values, either. (For instance, one study found that when people experience “time famine,” they are much less likely to help other people.)
So how do we make this better? How do we increase our sense of time affluence? And how do we take advantage of time confetti — those free, unstructured moments that suddenly open up — to create time windfalls: moments of rest, downtime, relationship-building, and the things we most want to do, if only we felt like we had the time?
