Ever feel like your to-do list is auditioning for a horror movie? Same. In this episode of The Soul Fork, Amanda flips the script on overwhelm and never-ending checklists by pulling out her secret weapon: The Soul Fork Method.

Instead of choking down your chores like cold broccoli, what if you served them up like crème brûlée? From project plans built in Chat (because AI can actually be your wingman) to turning laundry into a mini party, Amanda shows how to stop surviving your list and start savoring it.

Plus, we toot our horns for small wins, roast the idea of “perfection,” and remind you that self-care isn’t just bubble baths—it’s boundaries, badassery, and reframing that pile of tasks into treats.
