 In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the moments procrastination sneaks into your life and—more importantly—why. Whether you’re staring at your to-do list, doom-scrolling through Instagram, or putting off that one thing that matters most, I’m breaking down the real emotional and mental triggers behind procrastination.

We’ll walk through some of the most common “when” moments: right before big decisions, during times of transition, or in the middle of your busy week when burnout starts to set in. And we’ll explore the “why” behind those patterns—fear of failure, perfectionism, overwhelm, and so much more.

You’ll hear real coaching stories, simple neuroscience, and strategies to help you interrupt procrastination in real-time. This episode is part 1 of a special 3-part series—and it’s packed with encouragement, truth, and practical guidance you can use right away.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, this episode is for you.

  • The surprising moments women tend to procrastinate—and why it happens
  • How your brain interprets discomfort and fear as danger (and hits pause)
  • A real coaching example of how procrastination can hide behind “busy”
  • How to identify your own patterns so you can take back your power
