We say we’re busy. We say we don’t have time. But what if it’s not time we’re lacking—it’s tolerance?

In this episode, Leah Roling explores the silent epidemic of avoidance: how distraction, busyness, and over-stimulation have become our socially accepted drugs. We scroll, swipe, shop, eat, or work—not because we don’t care, but because we’re avoiding something deeper: our feelings, our thoughts, our truth, our next decision.

Leah unpacks why we chase dopamine instead of depth, and how every act of avoidance costs us our connection, clarity, and confidence. You’ll learn to recognize your avoidance patterns, run a 24-hour awareness audit, and test three micro-commitments that reconnect you to your power, purpose, and peace.

Because everything we do is either to feel a certain way—or to avoid feeling a certain way. And freedom begins when we stop running from ourselves.
