What if one of the keys to happiness is how intentional you are with your time?


Ashley Whillans is an Assistant Professor at Harvard Business School and author of the book Time Smart. Her groundbreaking research has led her to radically reevaluate how she spends her own time. Her goal is to help you move from time poverty to time affluence.


In this conversation, we talk about:

  • How to do a time audit
  • Funding time, finding time, and reframing time
  • The surprising extent to which prioritizing time over money predicts happiness–and what to do if you usually do the opposite
  • How to handle "time confetti"
  • The value of canceling meetings
