015. Why Do We Kill Time When It’s the Most Precious Asset We Have?

If time is our most valuable resource, why do we waste so much of it? In this episode, Dave Flenagan and Zoe Hirsch explore Dr. Stef Huber’s 2025 article on how existential fears—of death, isolation, freedom, and meaninglessness—push us toward endless distractions.

Dr. Huber argues that avoiding these fears costs us opportunities for growth and self-actualization. Drawing on thinkers like Irvin D. Yalom, Carl Rogers, and Lori Gottlieb, she suggests that confronting our fears head-on leads to a more fulfilling life—one where time is spent with intention, not avoidance.

Dave and Zoe discuss why we fear deep reflection, how technology fuels our escape, and what it means to reclaim our time. Tune in for insights on breaking free from distraction and living with purpose!
