Brett and Joe deliver a long-awaited episode on procrastination, exploring its real contours—the shame, the avoidance, the misplaced priorities. They reveal how it stems from self-criticism and avoidance, and show how a shift in perspective can turn it into prioritization, creativity, and authentic productivity.
Together, they discuss:
- How procrastination depends on self-abuse and self-judgment
- Procrastination vs healthy prioritization
- Emotional avoidance
- The importance of iteration, play, and creativity
- Practical experiments and exercises for working with procrastination
