Summary

RE-EDITED VERSION! (Sorry guys - turns out we needed the vacation!)

In today’s episode Ben and Brooke answer some super tricky listener questions about the deeper issues of choosing to live a slower, more intentional life and, to be honest, they got a little stumped!

They include questions about:

Planning for the future vs living in the moment
How to minimise time spent talking on the phone, as it impedes our attempts to live a simpler, more present life
How simplifying life has impacted Ben and Brooke's relationships
How to balance work, family and down-time, particularly with a new job
What can we do to reconcile our work lives with our values, or how to overcome the discrepancy from one to the other.

Enjoy!
