Ep. 86 | What a Moped Driver in Marrakesh Taught Me About Overthinking
from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel
In today's episode, I'm talking about what I learned from watching moped drivers navigate the wild, chaotic streets of the Marrakesh Medina — and why their secret isn't skill or speed, it's full commitment. I share how standing on the sidewalk analyzing your life is not the same as living it, and what Marsha Linehan's DBT concept of "participation" can teach us about getting out of our heads. We'll explore why overthinking isn't preparation — it's a way of staying on the sidelines — and how clarity comes from moving, not from figuring it all out first. Question to carry into your day: What are you standing on the edge of that's asking you to stop thinking and start moving? Want to chat about working together? Me too!
