24. The Sunday Scaries: Why Work Dread Starts Before the Week Even Begins


Listen Later

It's Sunday afternoon. The sun is still out. You haven't even finished your coffee. And somehow, work is already ruining your day. That knot in your stomach, the scrolling to avoid your own thoughts, the creeping dread that starts sometime around 3pm and just gets louder, then maybe you don’t get good sleep on Sunday nights. Today I'm going to show you why it happens and the specific steps to stop handing your Sundays over to a job that doesn't even start until tomorrow. You'll learn the real biology behind Sunday dread, why the standard advice makes it worse, and my three-part approach to reclaiming your weekend.
