I've found that one of the most difficult parts about pursuing a non-traditional path are the inevitable questions or doubts from people closest to you. It's usually from a good place but hard nonetheless. Can you speak about the process of communicating this change in working style to your wife and other loved ones?

my wife is the easy one - shes just as weird and pathless as me - and i think this is why i never have GREAT answers to this - I have this refuge at home where our life is quite ordinary - it has been this way since we met For others, I think I tried hard to get approval or undestanading but over time, especially the last year, I have tried to accept that I am okay not having understanding. Some peoples emotional avoidance strategies guarantee that they cant understand, they need to deny your life strategy to keep going on a path that see as the only possible path More tactically, I use different intros for people. I joke about a "boomer compatible story" - so in these groups Ill say im a business consultant or business owner. With web3 world, I might say im a degenerate internet poaster lol I think my book has been that way of communicating it for others, getting a spouse to read pathless path, my slow bumbling failures and false starts take away some defenses
