Episode notes

Sometimes stuckness is your going, but then you you're kind of stuck in the going, in the moving. I do not know one person who's in go mot all the time who isn't terrified of what's waiting for them if they slow down even a beat. Procrastination and immobility is a state of frieze. So we have to figure out, what are you afraid will happen? What's coming to eat you? If youre going too fast, that's your brains stuck in flight. Let's make it ok that you slow down, otherwise you won't.

It's never fun to feel as if you're stuck. But there might be some advantages to getting stuck that you may not see, especially when you're actually in that state.

That's where Britt Frank comes in.

Britt Frank is the author of The Science of Stuck. She is a therapist, teacher, speaker, and trauma specialist who is committed to dismantling the mental health myths that keep us feeling STUCK and SICK.

On this episode, she joined me for a discussion about dealing with "stuckness". We also chat about the hidden benefits of staying stuck, Energy Management, and more about her work focusing on empowering people to understand the inner mechanisms of their brains and bodies.
