You're Not Lazy, You're Afraid

Procrastination isn't laziness or poor planning. It's an emotion regulation strategy, the pull to avoid the uncomfortable feelings a task stirs up. In this episode, Lisa explains what the not-starting protects, why willpower keeps losing to a threat response, and how the two-minute door lowers the cost of beginning below the level your nervous system reads as a threat. The Not Starting Kit is available at craftyourwellness.com. Every episode is written, reviewed, and clinically directed by Lisa Reidsema, LMHC, and narrated in her own approved voice. This podcast is educational and isn't therapy or a substitute for care from a licensed clinician.
