Choice quotes from the podcast:
"For me, it's never an ambition to make a separation between my work and the rest of my life. But instead, to make sure that those two things are very much in balance, in harmony, and I'm able to feel really fulfilled, whatever I'm doing."
"The rise of freelancing and self employment is really interesting, if you consider it in part as a response to traditional companies lack of flexibility around remote work."
"It's all about priorities. What do you want to spend your mental energy and time optimizing for?"
