As Anne Helen Petersen captures so perfectly in her recent newsletter, there are many reasons (we're or) You're Still Exhausted. Today I'm sharing a quick solo riff from the park: a personal "take two" on the day Ryder turned two. 📘 Books Mentioned: Free Time: Lose the Busywork, Love Your Business 🗽Photos: Reclining Liberty art installation 📰Article: You're Still Exhausted by Anne Helen Petersen 🎙 Related Episodes: 031: Eleventh-Hour Creative Gremlins, Pivot—45: Post-Launch Pivot Point + Visit From the Furry Rest Monster ❤️ Enjoying the show?
