Ep 45: Why its so hard hard to slow down.
Most of us know we need to slow down, we feel it and yet something keeps us moving anyway.
This episode is an honest look at what's actually behind that. Not a list of tips or a lecture about self care. Just bite-sized conversation about why staying busy can feel so much safer than stopping and what might be quietly sitting underneath it.
Rick shares a story from a client who came in burnt out and overwhelmed and another from his own weekend where he caught himself doing the same thing. What came up in both wasn't about workload, it was about fear and about what we've learned to do with it.
If you've ever felt guilty for resting or found it hard to just be without doing anything, this one is worth a listen.
In this episode, we explore...
The stories behind the busyness
The potential fear underneath
The feeling being avoided
A different way of looking at it
Some questions worth sitting with
A practical experiment to explore
