Lobster Lessons and Life Examined - RTTR026

  • Summary

  • In this transformative edition of Run Toward The Roar Podcast, join host John Robertson as he dives deep into the complexities of maintaining a balance between work, personal well-being, and staying true to one's values.

    Tap into Robertson's insights on why the healthcare system's tendency to reactively treat illness rather than proactively prevent it might be misaligned with our long-term well-being.

    Listen closely as we dissect the common misconception that staying busy equates to being important, and consider the imperative to align our activities with our deepest values.

    During the episode, Robertson challenges listeners to reflect on the cultural fixation with busyness. He provocatively questions the meaning of a full schedule, urging us to consider whether our to-do lists truly reflect what is most important to us.

    The episode encourages a radical rethinking of what it means to be productive and pushes for resilience as the cornerstone for thriving in a chaotic world. The discussion sheds light on the perils of confusing action with accomplishment and the importance of saying no to things that don't serve our deeper goals.
