Savannah James was extremely nervous to start a podcast, but this year, alongside her close friend, April McDaniel, she did just that. For the majority of her life in the public eye, people saw James as the quiet wife of basketball star, LeBron James, and mom to their three children. On the "Everybody's Crazy" podcast, James and McDaniel take calls from people who are looking for advice on how to handle complicated situations. Starting the podcast was also a very big leap for McDaniel, who founded her own marketing agency, Crown + Conquer. I think the one thing people don't realize about me and Savannah is we don't care what other people think."

AdvertisementI grew up in Staten Island, a borough of New York City, and lived there almost my entire life until last summer. I've gotten more comfortable driving as I've done it more, but I hadn't expected such a steep learning curve.

Instead, they agreed upon a 32-hour workweek, in which employees retain their full-time positions with benefits but can enjoy reduced hours and schedule flexibility. The couple both work for the county, and say the shortened workweek has improved their quality of life. Ingman, a park manager in the county, said the 32-hour workweek made his job easier by attracting a better applicant pool. His wife’s employer recently adopted its own 32-hour workweek — using San Juan County as a template.
