 Competing priorities. BOO. 👎

This is where a lot of smart, self-aware people get stuck — feeling like everything is equally urgent, equally important, and impossible to decide between.

Here’s where we go today:

  • The surprising history of the word "priority" — and why it might change your whole life

  • Why trying to make multiple things “most important” creates instant decision friction

  • The 3 main ways “competing priorities” show up (and what’s actually happening underneath)

  • A simple shift that can bring clarity to "prioritizing" right away

    If you’ve ever felt like you have too many priorities, too many demands, or no clear place to start — this episode will help you rethink how prioritizing actually works so decisions get easier.
