If your software makes you tense, avoidant, or irrationally irritated, you’re not imagining it.

In this episode, I’m talking about why your software might be driving you crazy and what that has to do with your nervous system, not your intelligence or discipline. I see this all the time when I’m helping business owners choose and use tools, and the problem is rarely that they’re “bad at tech.”

Your nervous system experiences software as a place you enter, not just a tool you use. When that environment feels chaotic, unfamiliar, or misaligned, it quietly drains your energy, increases cognitive load, and pushes you out of flow.

In this episode, I explore how software can either support regulation or create friction, why daily tools feel easier than ones you only use occasionally, when software can help solve a problem and when it absolutely can’t, and how to tell whether the issue is the tool itself or the habit underneath it.

The right software shouldn’t make your business harder. It should make it easier to be consistent, supported, and in flow.
