    #10 The Fight Against All-Nighters

    In this episode → All-nighters and working incredibly late is just a common attitude in our industry, to the point where some students feel as though it is a badge of honour. But it's really just part of this cycle of toxicity that has been around for a very long time. Is it because we are poor at time-management or because we undervalue ourselves so much? I explore the topic further in this episode, touching on points made in my recent article on the Architect's Journal. talking:scale is a podcast all about finding new and creative ways for architecture students to be productive and efficient with their time. 🙃 We often get overwhelmed and burnt out by the enormous amounts of pressure that comes with this profession.
