What is a hobby, and why did I start this podcast?

This is the introductory episode to Hobbies 101! A hobby is something that you do voluntarily and methodically. When you find something you like doing, just for the sake of doing the thing, it's important to make time for it! 
There are so many hobbies out there. While it's a wonderful thing to have so many choices, choices can be paralyzing. That's where this podcast comes in. I will tell you pros and cons, equipment necessary, basic steps for getting started, and my personal experience that I hope melt away your excuses for trying something new.

In this episode I quote two books: The Mindful Hobby, A 30-day Journey into the Power of Hobby as Self-Care by Stephanie Jean Andrews and Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World by Cal Newport.
