I want to be consistent. I want to show up. But somehow, the moment something matters , I avoid it.

In this episode, I open up about my personal struggle with consistency. From cleaning the house before exams to rewatching old shows when I should be preparing for a job interview. I’ve noticed a pattern. One that looks like productivity, but is really just avoidance.

I talk about growing up in India, where achievement was everything. Where I learned that love and praise came after success, not before. And how that “good girl” conditioning, the pressure to be perfect, made it hard for me to try at all unless I felt 100% ready.

Together, we’ll unpack why consistency can feel unsafe, how our nervous system protects us by distracting us, and what I’m trying to do now, slowly to rebuild trust with myself.

This episode is for the quiet overachievers, the chronic avoiders, the ones who care deeply but freeze when it matters. You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. You’re just human, and you’re not alone.
