The Myth of Laziness

Make Time For You

Join me for this, potentially controversial, episode of the "Make Time for You" podcast as I tackle the pervasive myth of laziness and explore how societal pressures to be constantly productive impact our well-being.

I uncover the stigmatisation of rest and how it pushes us into a cycle of overwork, triggering the chronic stress response that reduces our efficiency and leads to burnout. Discover the necessity of switching off the stress response to maintain energy and creativity, and how the guilt associated with taking time for self-care is rooted in societal expectations, often formed from childhood.

Listen in as I challenge the misconception of laziness through a real-life client story, revealing how misaligned values and overwhelming feelings, rather than inherent laziness, affect motivation. I explore practical steps to boost motivation and tackle overwhelmingly large tasks, emphasizing the importance of self-care and starting small to build momentum.

Additionally, I delve into mastering self-awareness and time management to effectively manage your personal energy and avoid burnout. By regularly assessing and addressing your specific needs, it allows you to pursue your goals and passions without the need for overfilling your schedule or exhausting your brain & body!

Tune in for essential strategies to reclaim your time and energy in a world that often demands more than we can sustainably give.

And if we’re not already connected, why the devil not?!

I’d love to hear from you!
