In this introductory trailer, I am pulling back the curtain on what it actually takes to run Function of Planning. We are stepping away from the perfectly styled desk to talk about the messy reality of entrepreneurship: balancing a full-time job, late-night order packing, frantic printer runs, and failed product attempts. We are getting real about the sheer grit required to keep showing up when systems fall apart, trying to cook dinner while managing kids with special needs, and navigating an ADHD brain with eight million open tabs trying to figure out where the music is coming from.

This podcast is a space to examine the systems, incentives, and unspoken rules of hustle culture. It’s not about optimizing every minute of your day—it’s about what holds up when real life and human complexity enter the picture.

Tune in to hear the mission behind the microphone, and get a sneak peek at what is coming in Episode 1, where we head down the rabbit hole with a completely anonymous co-host—my balance and my voice of reason when the chaos gets loud.

If you have ever felt disillusioned by the pressure of constant optimization or curious about what is really behind the aesthetics of modern work, this conversation is for you.
