006 - Mart and Dave - Autonomy Within Structure

David and Harvey reflect on creativity, rest, and the way environments shape how we feel and live. Starting with David's new painting, they move through nature, energy, parenting, sleep, roots versus movement, and the tension between habit and free will. The conversation closes with a critique of attention-driven social media and Harvey's idea to turn years-old posts into a personal collection of reflections.
