Ever been called lazy when it feels like you’re actually trying really hard?

You know what needs doing. You’ve thought about it, probably more than once. You might even be annoyed with yourself for not starting. And yet, somehow, you’re still stuck. From the outside, that can look like you just can’t be bothered.

But what’s really going on in that gap between knowing you need to do something and actually doing it?

In this episode, we look at effort, avoidance, getting stuck, responsibility, and why the word lazy often tells us far less than people think it does.

Because maybe the most useful question isn’t whether you’re lazy.

Maybe it’s: where are you actually getting stuck?
