You're Not Lazy; You're Just Stuck.
from The Group Chat Therapist · host Betty Guerrero
Procrastination is usually framed as a motivation or discipline problem—but what if it’s actually about expectations, pressure, and perfectionism?In this first episode of The Group Chat Therapist, Betty breaks down why procrastination isn’t laziness and how unspoken expectations can quietly turn into overwhelm, avoidance, and self-shame. Through real-life examples and a clinical lens, we explore the difference between expectations and actionable plans, why doing too much can keep you stuck, and how letting go of “doing it perfectly” can help you finally start.This episode isn’t about productivity hacks or fixing yourself. It’s about reframing the way you approach the things you’ve been putting off—without guilt, burnout, or shame.
