Hey there, you're listening to the Lazy Genius Podcast.

I'm Kendra Adachi, and I'm here to help you be a genius about the things that matter

Part of what I love about this job is offering encouragement and tools on this podcast especially,

not just to take the edge off, but to enjoy being a person and living your life in a way that's meaningful and matters to you.

And we talk a lot about that kind of thing here.

You know, time management, food management, rest management, relationship management.

We have a lot of words around management, around living, around figuring it all out.

But one of the things we don't talk about a ton is having fun.

I mean, we have fun.

I share books, which I think is fun.

I share what saved me my life once a quarter, and I think that's fun too.

I encourage us all to take time to feel like ourselves, whatever that looks like for each person.

And that too is also fun.

We've even had a handful of specific, specific episodes on fun things, but I have some new understanding about fun

that I did not have before that I want to share with you.

Now, in preparation for today's episode, which was actually supposed to be called How to Have Fun Everyday,

I started reading this book called The Power of Fun by Catherine Price.

And it turns out that I have been getting fun wrong.
