Our first solo episode of the new era! In this episode I want to get into why procrastination isn’t really about laziness. It’s a deeply ingrained behavior with psychological roots, and avoiding it is a skill you can learn & practice.

A huge thank you to Professor Fuschia Sirois for speaking to me as part of my research for this episode. Fuschia is working on an anti-procrastination tool called TEMPO toolkit. It's free to use and you can register your interest for when it launches here: https://fuschiasirois.com/2024/11/12/do-you-or-someone-you-know-struggle-with-procrastination/
