Designing a Deep Life: Cal Newport on Focus, Slow Productivity & Meaningful Work
In this conversation, Cal Newport shares the ideas that shaped Deep Work, Slow Productivity, and his philosophy of designing a life rooted in depth rather than busyness.
We explore how modern productivity culture fragments attention, why constant activity erodes meaning, and how focus, simplicity, and long-term thinking lead to more fulfilling work and life. Cal also reflects on his personal journey — from student entrepreneur to professor, author, and father — and how his own nervous system shaped the way he works.
This episode is a powerful invitation to slow down, reduce noise, and reclaim depth in a distracted world! 🙏🏻
