We all say the same thing: I don’t have enough time.

Not enough time to work, to parent, to rest, to exercise, to finally do the thing we’ve been putting off for years.

But what if that story… isn’t actually true?

What if the problem isn’t time itself—but how we think about it, measure it, and ultimately choose to spend it?

Today’s guest wants us to completely rethink our relationship with time. Laura Vanderkam has built her career challenging the idea of time scarcity, and in her new book, Big Time, she makes a compelling case that many of us have far more time than we think—we’re just not seeing it clearly.

In our conversation, we get into the real data behind how we spend our days, why tracking your time can be a game changer, and how small mindset shifts—especially around your evenings—can unlock what she calls “time abundance.”

We also talk about the very real challenges of balancing work, family, and everything in between—and how to negotiate time more effectively, whether that’s with your partner, your boss, or even yourself.

Qe don’t talk about sports a lot on this show. But today, we are—because this is really a story about money.

Right now, women’s sports are having a moment. Investment is pouring in, media deals are growing, and athletes are finally starting to see bigger paychecks.

But this isn’t just about what’s happening at the professional level.

It’s also about what it takes to even get in the game. Youth sports are getting more expensive, access is shrinking, and yet the research shows that girls who play sports are more likely to become leaders, earn more, and build wealth over time.

So there’s a bigger question here: What does this moment mean for women—and our financial future?

Today, we’re digging into the economics of women’s sports, the controversy around athletes like Eileen Gu making bold financial moves, and why this could be one of the most important—and overlooked—wealth stories right now.

My guest is Tess Waresmith, investing educator and former athlete, who’s connecting the dots between sports, opportunity, and financial power. You can follow Tess on her Substack - Wealth with Tess - here.
