Podcast Episode Quote:
“The problem with believing you have no free time is that you don’t put a whole lot of thought into what you will do with your free time.”
“I encourage people to change that story, don't walk around with the myth that, ‘I have no free time’ – it's that, ‘I don't have as much free time as I want.”
