Open & Awkward: Shop Talk with Katie & Amanda
Season 2 Episode 18: NEVER AGAIN
Every Kind of Tired
What’s this podcast about?
Katie shares the emotional weight of the past year and the recent loss of her father. A comforting message from Ben, “you don’t ever have to deal with that again,” gave her an unexpected sense of peace. Amanda opens up about wanting to attend the funeral but getting derailed by a major miscommunication with a client that had real financial consequences, saying, “it would have been funny if it wasn’t so important to her.” They also discuss Greg McKeown’s Essentialism Planner and the liberating idea that you don’t have to follow everyone else’s rules for how you “should” live or work.
Highlights:
- Every kind of tired!
- Really screwing up!
- What do you want your business to be?
- The Essentialism Planner by Greg McKeown.
