About... Balancing Goals, Marriage, and Kids as Successful Creatives (with Alex!)

"You don't get MORE time, you just get much better about your time. And that is non-negotiable." Alex is back to chat through what is working as we chase big goals, stay connected in marriage, and raise kids while building creative careers.

We share the productivity habits helping us move forward, including our favorite brain dump method for reducing stress, getting organized, and creating momentum. We also talk honestly about money, freedom, identity, marriage, and why protecting fun, connection, and purpose matters just as much as working hard.
