I salute your approach to exploring in the way you are. It's a bold approach.

I sometimes wonder if compartmentalizing our money-making away from our meaning-making would serve us better. I think for a lot of people, it's hard to blend the two. I've found, for example, that I can make a lot of money (in less time) doing the non-meaningful work... which then funds the good stuff.

That's put me in a place that now allows me to pursue meaning without the "friction" you mention. If I did the reverse, I may have just struggled. Despite how much we try, venn diagram circles of work-that-has-a-market doesn't always overlap with the circle of work-that-has-meaning.

Anyways, I'm not disagreeing with your approach, just think about these things...
