Ever feel like there’s an invisible pressure driving you to constantly do more? That subtle hum in the background, always telling you to keep moving, keep achieving—it’s not just in your head. In this episode, I’m sharing a recent live session where I unpacked the concept of chronic urgency: why so many of us experience it, how it’s been hardwired into us, and the ways it’s holding us back from true focus and peace.

I dive into:

  • The color spectrum of emotional states and how to identify where you are.
  • How urgency might have helped you succeed but now drains your energy.
  • The difference between “good urgency” and the chronic, destructive kind.
  • Practical tools like somatic resourcing and orienting to bring your body back to calm.
  • Why learning to pause (and not doing the laundry) could transform how you show up every day.

Key Takeaway:
You don’t have to live in constant urgency to thrive. Pausing, feeling safe, and moving intentionally isn’t just possible—it’s essential.
