EP 10 - Regulating the Overachieving Nervous System

from Overachieving Shitshow · host Dr. Kate Rodriguez

If your version of "chilling out" involves scrubbing the baseboards, organizing the garage, or aggressively planning your next week, this one is for you. This week, Dr. Kate breaks down the clinical truth behind our historical inability to do absolutely nothing. Spoiler alert: It’s not just a quirky personality trait; it’s hypervigilance.Kate shares hilarious and vulnerable stories about trying to learn how to watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians, the myth of the perfect "craft mom" (shoutout to all the Venmo Moms out there), and a powerful lesson in why we actively resist sitting still.
