A Farmish Kind of Life

332: Life is NOT an emergency

Listen Later

Since going back to work outside the home, I’ve noticed something: so many folks live in constant emergency mode. They’re rushing, panicking, and treating every single task like life or death. Like every single thing is something that has to be solved or done right now.

So on the front porch today, I’m giving you my thoughts on:

  • Why “priority” used to be a singular word
  • The difference between a real emergency and a manufactured one
  • How prepping, homesteading, zero-debt life, and hustle culture all created urgency addiction
  • Why we feel more important when we’re stressed and overcommitted
  • How to stop treating your life like a five-alarm fire
  • The freedom that comes from saying “no… it doesn’t have to be today”
  • And how to choose what actually matters in a world that tells you everything matters equally

    • This episode is NOT about laziness, minimalism, or quitting real responsibility. It’s about clarity, courage, boundaries, and most importantly, breathing room.
