Season 2, Ep.3 - Interview with an artist: why busy is B.S.

Susan McCulley writes, moves, creates, and shines. She is an artist and all-around sparkly person. 

In this episode, we discuss the obsession with busyness and how we can find more joy in our lives, even within the chaos of modern life. We talk about how to ditch the endless search for worthiness and external approval. How do we learn to live from our true priorities? Can we free ourselves from the constant striving and to-do list addiction? (Spoiler alert: we can.)

Susan's new book Octabusy: Letting Go in a Sea of Doing is available now. Learn more at susanmcculley.com
