Is it the journey or the destination?
Summary: [S03E18] “Life is about the journey, not the destination” is what we are always being told. But is it? Is the destination just as important? We chat about the idea that we should all be thinking about “the now” and stop focusing on goals. Maybe we should stop being so dogmatic, so binary about our choices.
