Why Can't I Just Start? The Science of Procrastination

from Matcha Morning Club · host Matcha Morning Club

This week, we're getting into something we're both a little too familiar with: procrastination. And no, it's not about being lazy or bad at managing your time. It turns out it's actually an emotion regulation problem, and once we learned that, everything started to make a lot more sense. We get honest about how it shows up in our own lives, dig into why our brains seem designed to work against us (anxiety, ADHD, perfectionism, doom-scrolling productivity TikTok — we cover it all), and share the things that have actually, genuinely helped us. No lecture, no five-step plan. Just two friends figuring it out together, one sip at a time.procrastination, adhd, mental health, emotion regulation, self-improvement, procrastination helpSupport the showFOLLOW US HEREInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/matchamorningclubTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@matchamorningclubYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@matchamorningclub
