We live in a world that tells us to “optimize every moment” — even the ones when we’re brushing our teeth. As overachieving, multitasking moms, we’ve replaced boredom with productivity and filled every quiet space with someone else’s voice.In this episode, Stacey explores what happens when we never stop consuming and how the Default Mode Network in our brains literally needs silence to process, heal, and create.You’ll learn:Why silence feels uncomfortable — and what’s really happening in your brainHow perimenopause shifts our body’s need for rest and recoveryThe science (and woo) behind why quiet healsEasy ways to create more “blank spaces” in your day — from silent showers to music-only drivesThis is your permission slip to turn down the noise, stop fixing yourself, and start listening to your own voice again.And yes, Stacey fully gets the irony of it all — a podcaster telling you to listen to fewer podcasts. We'll talk to Alanis about it later.If you try a “blank space” moment this week — tell Stacey about it! 📩 Email her at [email protected] or DM her on Instagram @stacehutson
