Summary

Building on last week’s introductory show, Episode 2 dives deep into what Sarah Knight calls “f*ck overload” and how you can avoid it, or get yourself out if it if you’re already there. The internationally-bestselling author of the No F*cks Given Guides also offers the best strategy for making—and sticking to—your F*ck Budget. Sarah shows you how to sort your mental clutter between what brings you joy, but also what annoys you, and to allocate your “f*ck bucks” (time, energy, and money) accordingly. And finally, takes you through the steps of “cleaning out your mental barn.” Once you learn how, you can apply the same technique to any area of your life, be it a task, obligation, goal, or even a relationship.
