Whats Your Story?

My friend Alex is a productivity nut like me and it was an honor to have him on the show again, we had a fun time talking as always! Alex and I talked about our personal strategies around productivity, fighting The Resistance, and about taking energizing breaks because your brain needs the rest. Alex even mentions multiple studies and research backed concepts to back it all up!
