Escaping Adulthood: The Power of Tinkering in Life and Work

In this episode of the Imperfectionist Podcast, host David Rendall welcomes Jason and Kim Kotecki, a couple who have dedicated their lives to fighting 'adultitis'—the tendency to take life too seriously. They share their journey of working together, the importance of creativity, and how they have built a successful business around their art and speaking engagements. The conversation explores the concept of tinkering as a way to find one's path and the significance of embracing imperfection in life and work. In this engaging conversation, Kim and Jason Kotecki discuss the importance of embracing childlike joy, creativity, and a unique approach to education through unschooling. They share fun and wild suggestions for reconnecting with one's inner child, the significance of trusting the human spirit in learning, and the value of being weird. The Koteckis also introduce their new children's book, 'The Penguin Who Wanted to Fly,' and emphasize the importance of community and connection in their journey.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
