I'm going to share a DM, a direct message that was sent to me a few days ago regarding work life balance which I

We'll get to that after I talk about work life balance.

So this has the makings for a very interesting show today.

I'm not sure where I'm going to go with these

questions yet. I'm going to kind of just see how I feel on the inside when when I
