Summary

Have you ever felt that a monotonous life cannot possibly be an essential life? Have you ever found at the same time that sometimes in what appears to be a monotonous experience, you find something deeply meaningful? Today I have a fascinating conversation with Kyle Westaway. He's an entrepreneur and a lawyer who works with entrepreneurs, and today we discuss how he used essentialism and effortless principles to upend and create a completely new law office, something I've never seen anyone else do, and certainly not as smoothly, as clearly, and really as brilliantly.
