Episode notes

The chapter reflects on the balance between productivity and presence in life, touching on the feeling of emptiness from constant striving for perfection. It explores the concept of never truly finishing tasks and the societal pressure to always push harder. The speakers discuss the importance of self-validation, genuine human connections, and surrendering to the present moment for self-healing and growth.

305. How to Self-Regulate, Heal Your Relationships & Accept That You’ll Never Be Finished

As we continue the discussion on Busyness, Amanda, Glennon & Abby share more of their thoughts about the cult of Busyness – how buying into it shows up in you and your relationships, and how it leads to dysregulation and dissatisfaction in all areas of life. We go through the signs that might indicate you’re too busy and burnt out, how to know the difference between building a life and living a life, and why dysregulation can be a breadcrumb toward healing.

Discover:

-Why the addiction of busyness will never be pointed out or helped by most people;

-Why Abby says the idea of retirement is the greatest heist in human history; and

-The emotional breakdown Amanda had, which led to starting her healing journey.
