Thanks for this perspective, Katie. I've been thinking very much along the same lines lately. Life will eventually return to "normal," whatever that may look like, but there are many parts of this new normal I would like to keep. And I've heard from so many people that this time has gifted them with the time and energy to explore themselves in ways they never thought possible. I've particularly been thinking about my work life, the shallowness of corporate jobs, and what it would take for me to pursue real happiness, beyond the work work work capitalism mentality that was drilled into me since birth. I'm glad you're appreciating this time too!
Yes to rethinking the relationship with work! I'm hopeful that this experience will give many more of us a different perspective on capitalism and the need to be hyper-productive. I'm excited to follow along as you figure this out! I have no doubt you'll have some super enlightening things to say. xo
