This episode is the first installment of Season 3 in our monthly PM Talks series, where Patrick Rhone and I slow things down to explore the ideas that quietly shape how we live and work. This time, we start with an act of honesty right out of the gate—being transparent about when the episode was recorded—and let that openness set the tone for everything that follows.From there, the conversation unfolds into something deeper. We talk about honesty not as a moral stance, but as a practical one—especially when it comes to time, commitments, and the stories we tell ourselves about why things don’t happen. January has a way of inviting big intentions, and this discussion is a timely reminder that clarity begins with truth.Six Discussion PointsWhy the hardest lies to spot are the ones we tell ourselvesThe difference between urgency and immediacy—and why it matters“I don’t have time” as a story, not a factHow calendars can act as commitments, not constraintsHonesty about capacity, energy, and personal rhythmsWhy knowing who you are (and aren’t) changes everythingThree Connection PointsPatrick's websiteThe Year Compass (mentioned as a reflection tool)Mike’s upcoming book, Productiveness.Honesty isn’t about being harsher with ourselves—it’s about being clearer. This conversation is an invitation to pause, notice, and tell better stories about what we can actually do with the time and energy we have.
