Hosted by Tonya Richards, this episode challenges the tidy equation we’ve all been sold: 8 hours of work, 8 hours of life, 8 hours of sleep; as if life is a ledger that only works when perfectly divided.

If you are navigating competing demands and feeling like something is always “out of place,” this episode will meet you where you are.
