Published: Jan. 20, 2018, 12:45 a.m.

We made it to Episode 2\u2014and hey, so did you! High five!\n\nThis week, we\u2019re all about TIME: how we make it, how we use it, and how we think about it. We\u2019re also joined by our very first guest, Eileen Webb, who straight-up\xa0_blew our minds_ with her take on making time on your own terms. Seriously, it\u2019s ![\U0001f4af](https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/11/72x72/1f4af.png). Just listen already.\n\n> Why should my work get all of my best brain? \n> \u2014Eileen Webb, founder of [Webmeadow](http://webmeadow.com/)\n\nHere\u2019s what we cover. (Yep, there\u2019s a full transcript below, too!)\n\n## Show notes\n\nFirst things first: is it time for for lunch yet? We think so (we\u2019ve been thinking about snacks since 10:15). We start out with a segment on\xa0reclaiming lunchtime for, well, whatever you want:\n\n- Jenn tells us how she convinced her coworkers that watching Jeopardy at work is healthy. (We\u2019re totally sold.)\n- Katel sits down for a fancy meal for one.\n- Sara heads out for a midday run, meetings be damned.\n\nNext, NYG\xa0sits down with web strategist-slash-farmer Eileen Webb for an interview that\u2019s sure to stick with all of us for quite some time. We talk about:\n\n- How Eileen and her partner went from burnouts in the first dot-com boom to running a bakery to finding their niche doing digital strategy from their home in northern New Hampshire.\n- Why morning meetings don\u2019t work for Eileen\u2019s brain, and how she avoids them.\n- Why Eileen trades the 9-to-5 for a sunrise hike every Tuesday\u2014and never once feels guilty about it.\n- How to stop letting your calendar (and other people\u2019s bullshit requests) run your life.\n- Also, pocket bunnies (no, not _those kind)_.\n\nFollow Eileen on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/webmeadow), or hire her at [webmeadow.com](http://www.webmeadow.com).\n\nAlso in this episode:\n\n- [America\u2019s Favorite Quiz Show\xae](https://www.jeopardy.com/) (and don\u2019t you dare tell Jenn otherwise)\n- The [big-ass boats](https://www.instagram.com/p/BXQQhLaBCHb/) ([no seriously](https://www.instagram.com/p/Bdc75DZBTLz/) there are [so many](https://www.instagram.com/p/BFyvsb9FD4R/)) at the Philly Navy Yard\n- New Year\u2019s Liberations from [Cate Huston](https://medium.com/@catehstn/the-2018liberation-list-4e229bdbb919), [Ellen Pao](https://medium.com/@ekp/the-2018liberation-list-6997d2b10020), [Karolina Szczur](https://medium.com/@fox/my-2018liberation-list-a638d636d7c2), and [Erica Joy](https://medium.com/@ericajoy/2017-2018-9280f7689c19)\n- And of course, we profess our undying love for those \u201990s\xa0[Noxzema girl ads](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsgxxDMNWTs)\n\nThanks to our friends [The Diaphone](https://thediaphone.bandcamp.com/) for the use of our theme song, Maths, off the album of the same name.\xa0 ![\u2764](https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/11/72x72/2764.png)\n\n_T[![Codepen Logo](http://www.noyougoshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/codepen-horizontal-logo-1.png)](https://codepen.io/)his episode is brought to you by_
