In this episode, I dive into something I've been dealing with lately: productivity avoidance. You know that thing where you find yourself doing all the less important tasks just to avoid tackling the big, scary stuff? Yeah, that.

I open up about how this shows up in my own life and business, and honestly, it's been eye-opening to recognize these patterns. But here's what I've learned—it's not just about time management or discipline. It's about getting real with yourself and digging into the emotional stuff that's actually driving the avoidance.

I want you to ask yourself some tough questions. What are you really resisting? What's underneath all of this? Because once you start uncovering those root causes, you can finally start breaking free from the identities and stories that have been holding you back.

Takeaways

Productivity avoidance is real and relatable—it's not a personal failure. It often shows up as busywork (like collecting information) that feels productive but keeps you from tackling what actually matters.

The key to breaking through is self-reflection and asking yourself the hard questions. What are you really avoiding? What deeper fears—judgment, change, failure—are driving this behavior?

Confronting those uncomfortable feelings and shedding light on your fears is what weakens their hold on you. Create space for the deep work that scares you, and watch yourself grow.
