Here's a two-sentence description for the episode: In this episode, Cal Newport critically examines a provocative Wall Street Journal op-ed by 22-year-old entrepreneur Emil Barr, who argues that work-life balance leads to mediocrity. Newport systematically breaks down different definitions of professional success, demonstrating that while some career paths may require intense effort, most definitions of success do not necessitate sacrificing health, relationships, or well-being.
