Ep111: Overcoming Procrastination When You’re Ambitious and Burned Out
In this episode of Daring DVM, Dr. Amy Grimm discusses a surprisingly common struggle for high-achievers: procrastination. We’re not talking about laziness or lack of discipline, we’re talking about the real reason we procrastinate (hint: it has everything to do with avoiding negative emotion).
You’ll learn:
- The two sneaky ways perfectionists tend to procrastinate
- Why smart, driven women find themselves delaying or distracting, even when they really want to follow through
- How emotions like fear of failure, overwhelm, self-doubt, and discomfort fuel the cycle of avoidance
- Practical journaling prompts and self-awareness exercises to help you figure out what you’re trying to avoid
- What it actually takes to break the habit of procrastination (no willpower required)
If you’re tired of putting things off, constantly feeling behind, or stuck in a burnout spiral, this episode will help you start moving forward, one uncomfortable but empowering step at a time.
