Author: iHeartPodcasts May 5, 2026 Duration: 35:26

Laura and Sarah open today's show with some updates on how they have spent their time lately (lots of travel!) and then Sarah interviews Laura all about her new book, Big Time: A Simple Path to Time Abundance, out TODAY!

They chat hot topics from the book, from golden hours to "dreaming big and planning small". And THEN Sarah gives Laura a pop quiz: can she match quotes from her books to the right volume?!

In the Q&A, a listener writes in asking for advice as an aspiring course creator.

For anyone trying to navigate the complex, rewarding, and often messy intersection of professional ambition and family life, the Best of Both Worlds Podcast offers a grounded, practical conversation. Hosts Laura Vanderkam, a time management author and mother of five, and Sarah Hart-Unger, a practicing physician and mom of three, bring their distinct yet complementary experiences to the table. Their discussions move beyond abstract ideals to tackle the real-world logistics of career development, efficient parenting, and intentional time management. Each episode feels like a candid chat with two friends who have been there, focusing on actionable strategies for productivity without sacrificing personal joy or connection. This isn't about achieving a perfect balance, but about building a fulfilling, sustainable life where both work and family can thrive. Produced by iHeartPodcasts, the podcast provides thoughtful perspectives on creating a meaningful structure for your weeks and years, always with an eye toward making space for what truly matters. You'll find their approach both reassuring and motivating, as they dissect common challenges and share what has-and hasn't-worked in their own busy lives. Listening to this podcast is like getting actionable advice from a trusted source who understands that loving your career and loving your family are not mutually exclusive goals, but parts of a whole, integrated life.
