Episode Details

This week Jeremy asks why is it so hard to do the things we actually want to do? He explores the gap between desire and capacity, and why exhaustion, perfectionism, and the lure of immediate gratification can make even the things we love feel like chores. Maybe the answer isn't more discipline, but less shame, less friction, and permission to do things badly simply because we enjoy them.

As always, Jeremy has all his practice info at Wellness with Jer, and you can find him on Instagram and YouTube. You can donate directly to support religious trauma survivors here. We appreciate support from likes, follows, and shares as well! None of my online work would be possible without my media maven Kenny, so check out their work as well at kenlingdesign.com
