Making Time For What Counts: Meditations for Mortals with Oliver Burkeman

Adrienne is looking back at some of her favourite Power Hour episodes from years gone by! Oliver Burkeman worked for many years at The Guardian , where he wrote a popular weekly column on psychology, “This Column Will Change Your Life.” His books include the New York Times bestseller Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals and The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can’t Stand Positive Thinking.
