If you relate to being anxious, sensitive, easily overwhelmed or always overthinking every darn thing....this is my call to you.
Today we're exploring how these profoundly pathologised traits are, actually, exactly what the world needs right now.
Join me as we tinker with:
How overthinking and anxiety are misunderstood, undervalued, and categorised as “problems” to be fixed (including by me in past times, which is totally cringe)
The connection between anxiety, sensitivity, overwhelm and overthinking with being caring, thoughtful, kind and not an asshOle (and why this is relevant)
Why and how society dismisses different ways of being and thinking—and how this ties into systems built on speed, extraction, and dominance.
A total overhaul of what "overthinking" means —and why it's exactly what the world needs right now.
The connection between our mental health and the world around us (er, mentioned every episode)
