Ep. 54 - Meditations for Mortals Week 1 / Being Finite

MEDITATIONS FOR MORTALS BOOK STUDY

Kelley and Erin just finished reading Week 1 of Oliver Burkeman’s Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Your Limitation and Make Time for What Counts.

This week was all about being finite. We break down each day - Days 1 through 7 - of the first section of the book to discuss Oliver’s messaging, examples from their own lives, and what messages resonated with them the most.
