In this episode, I explore the value of fun with Steph Clark. Steph shares what fun really means to her as a personal value, how she uses "fun potential" as a filter when making decisions, and why fun often serves as an umbrella for deeper values like connection, curiosity and belonging. We also get into how Steph navigates periods of life that are genuinely unfun, and her current project exploring the art and science of friendship.
