Pumpkin spice apologists wya? It’s the great lock in Charlie
Brown!!!!! In this episode, I’m walking you through the exact
five-step seasonal planning system that dramatically changed my
life a few years back. Along the way, we’ll dive into the
philosophy and psychology behind why it works. We’ll talk through
Nietzsche’s philosophy on habits, Simone de Beauvoir’s ideas on
how to reconcile your past and future selves, the planning
fallacy, and more. Whether you want to change the trajectory of
your life this fall or just set up some systems to make life a
little less chaotic, this episode is for you.
