Separating your identify from work, aging, and banned books
Description
Another week, another breakdown.
In this episode, we dive into the idea of creating psychological distance from work and whether loving your job is necessary for happiness. Cait shares her top advice for creatives and fresh, insightful questions to ask people other than the classic "what do you do?"
We also explore the Outlive book by Peter Attia, discuss legal news including a gas company lawsuit in Multnomah County and recalls from Coca-Cola and Pepsi.
Tune in for a look at over 10K banned books, a standout stuffing recipe from Bon Appétit, and an informative Stanford study on aging. Plus, we chat about Paul Mescal's GQ cover, Chad Michael Murray in The Merry Gentlemen, Emily’s favourite English word, and Cait’s vision of a perfect day. Oh, as always, a few book recommendations as well!
