Season 14, Episode 6: Not everything is urgent (with guest Kim Palmer)
from Stressed But Well Dressed · host Dahlia Stroud
Dahlia is joined by Kim Palmer — founder of the Clementine app and co‑author of Not Everything Is Urgent — for a conversation about the architecture of urgency, the psychology of confidence, and the cognitive mechanics behind hypnotherapy.Rather than treating stress as a personal failing, they look at the structural forces that keep women in a state of permanent acceleration, and why “quiet confidence” functions as a counter‑cultural stance rather than a personality trait. Kim breaks down how hypnotherapy actually works at a neurological level - how accessing the subconscious allows you to interrupt long‑established behavioural loops that logic alone can’t touch.The discussion moves between identity, habit formation, and the politics of pace: what happens when you stop responding to every stimulus as if it’s critical, and how your sense of self shifts when urgency is no longer the organising principle of your day.If you are guilty of people pleasing and interested in building your confidence through control rather than being the loudest person in the room this conversation is for you.Find more about Stressed But Well Dressed on instagram @stressedbutwelldressed_podcastRead 'Not Everything Is Urgent' not everything is urgent by Kim Palmer, Ian Haworth, and Shashank Sharma | The Pound ProjectFind out more about Clementine App: About — Clementine App
