Summary

#1164 Peter's business is in the Australian healthcare tech niche — he's got a membership community and a podcast that publishes four times weekly. He also recently decided to go full-time with the venture . . . he's working so many hours and he's starting to burn out a little bit. Let's see if we can help him get closer to equilibrium.

Using my own experience and strategies with time management, I encourage Peter to create more discipline in his time blocking so that gaps in working time aren't always immediately filled with more working projects. We talk through a few mindset shifts I had to go through myself so that Peter can hopefully start approaching his work and life more holistically.
