Iteration #33: Forty-One

IMG_8758



During the course of making this episode, I turned 41, so some chatter to mark the event. Aside from that, the talk was mostly about trying to get back on / keep on track with changes means to keep anxiety and stress about work in its place. Also struggled with the idea that the effort I put into this podcast doesn't seem to fit into the picture that is emerging of what a better life might be.

Iteration #32: Transitions

IMG_8731



Made progress this week in getting organized at work, developing habits that will hopefully help me *keep* work organized and prevent it from being a source of too much anxiety and stress. Improved my perspective on the tenure process. Yeah, so lots of work, work, academia, libraries, work, work... but that's what this week has been about. (This is all going somewhere, folks!)

(Sorry about the wind...)
