20: The Real Reason You Keep Overthinking Everything


Listen Later

In this episode of Rewild by Design, Marissa breaks down what overthinking actually is and why it happens.


This isn't just having a busy mind. It’s about what happens after you go against what you already know.


Marissa walks through how overthinking starts, why your brain takes over, and how this pattern shows up in everyday life, from replaying conversations to second guessing decisions you’ve already made.


She also explains how this disconnect creates mental exhaustion and self-doubt, and what starts to change when you begin trusting your body instead of trying to think your way into certainty.


In this episode, you’ll hear about:

  • Why overthinking isn’t the real problem
  • The moment where you override yourself without realizing it
  • Why your brain steps in after the fact
  • How overthinking leads to second guessing and mental exhaustion
  • What changes when you stop relying on your mind for decisions
  • How Human Design explains your natural decision-making superpowers
