In this episode, we explore how to celebrate the process of doing challenging, meaningful work rather than fixating solely on outcomes—a concept I explore in my upcoming book, The Obvious Challenge.
As I share my method of scheduling waypoints with loved ones to mark milestones in creative projects, we wrestle with explaining this approach without reducing it to another formulaic framework that sounds nice but offers little practical guidance.
