ACT - "Time Blindness" (Thursday 4-16-26)

In this candid episode of 'A Corporate Time with Tom and Dan,' the hosts dive deep into the concept of 'time blindness'—a real but often misunderstood trait where individuals perceive time differently, leading to chronic lateness despite being punctual in practice. Crystal Van, co-founder of the Bart Merrick team, shares her lifelong experience with time blindness, contrasting it with Dan's intense time anxiety. The conversation explores how these opposing time perceptions affect parenting, work, and daily life, with Tom and Dan humorously illustrating their chaotic household routines, from mismatched dinner plans to laundry piles and last-minute event planning. They reflect on the balance between structure and flexibility, acknowledging that while time blindness can be a superpower in adaptability, it comes at the cost of domestic chaos. The episode ends on a lighthearted note with plans for a snowy Red Rocks concert weekend, blending humor with heartfelt reflections on love, parenting, and personal limits.
