Yeah, it wasn’t until the 1940s that we started having multiple priorities — which, if you think about it, doesn’t actually make sense. In this episode we dive into the idea of having a priority and releasing the idea that you have to do all the things, all the time. Listen above or in your favorite podcasting app!
