Do you find yourself putting things off until the last minute? Me too. I am not proud to admit it, but I am a chronic procrastinator.

But what's the harm, anyway? How bad can procrastination be? It turns out that procrastination is connected to anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression.  

So, if you're putting off doing your taxes, starting that project, or having a tough conversation, this episode will resonate with you. In it, Denise and I discuss the things people procrastinate the most and dig deep into the four main types of procrastinators.  We'll also offer hope by giving specific suggestions to meet you where you're at and help you move toward a less anxious reality.
