There’s only so much you can do in a week – or, according to Oliver Burkeman, in the roughly 4,000 weeks the average human lives. Oliver is a journalist and author of the books Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, Meditations for Mortals, and the newsletter “The Imperfectionist.” Chris and Oliver discuss the paradox of why change can only occur once we accept that we might not be able to change. Oliver also shares how life’s mishaps can become our most treasured memories and why sharing your imperfections is an act of generosity.

Welcome along to Crushed by Margaret Cabourn-Smith; the podcast about unrequited love. This episode I talk to awesome writer and speaker POORNA BELL. I'm a big fan of hers and have been trying to track her down for a couple of years since I was too shy (I know) to approach her at Crushed alumnus Dolly Alderton's book launch. My persistence paid off and I loved talking to her and getting an advance copy of her excellent new novel This Is Fine which is out now and highly recommended. I love that instead of doing a reading from that, she read from her teenage diary. Thanks for downloading and supporting us.

Welcome to Crushed by Margaret Cabourn-Smith; the podcast about unrequited love. This SPECIAL THIRD ANNIVERSARY episode features my inimitable sisters, Carol Cabourn-Smith and Beth Sines (nee Cabourn-Smith). Not to be too sentimental but the truth is they are incredibly important to me and I think this episode illustrates our closeness. It's funny talking to people I know so well, neither of whom do any performing but are naturally honest and hugely entertaining. I hope it all makes sense! It's a slice of life (only without the booze that usually occurs in family get-togethers. Probably for the best). Thanks for downloading and supporting.
