Most Days Episode #1: Why the heck am I doing this?

from Most Days · host Courtney Guillen

Perfection is a trap, and most advice sounds better than it works. I'm starting Most Days with a simpler, truer standard: aim for progress most days, not flawless every day.In this first episode I get into the real reasons I'm doing this. I want accountability that isn't already built into my work. I want to slow life down through some actual self-reflection. And I've had a long-standing itch to teach while I'm still learning in real time.I also lay out the format so you know exactly what you're signing up for. You'll get short solo episodes built for real schedules and short drives, plus "Nap Time With Courtney and Kevin," conversations we record while the kids are asleep. Those cover working together in a family business, navigating marriage and partnership, and parenting while building a company. Down the road I'll add owner-operator interviews with leaders who've rebuilt, failed, learned, and kept going, with a focus on the human side of business and leadership.Then I unpack what "most days" actually means and why it changes everything. Add those two words to almost any bold claim and it gets more honest, more useful, and more forgiving. That same lens shapes my early topic pillars: money mindset, burnout, and raising kids with healthier financial literacy and a healthier relationship with work.If you're trying to lead well, parent well, and stay well without pretending you have it all figured out, you're in the right place.
