Today Amy delves into the common experience of procrastination, uncovering its roots and reframing it as a form of active decision-making rather than mere avoidance. Throughout the episode, Amy shares personal anecdotes and examples from client sessions, illustrating how a deeper understanding of procrastination can lead to more mindful and empowered action. She explores the etymology of the word and challenges listeners to see procrastination as a choice between immediate action and deliberate delay, thereby transforming how we perceive our own effectiveness and decision-making processes.


She explores:



  • What does the word 'procrastination' really mean, and how can this understanding change our perspective?

  • What practical strategies can we use to harness the proactive power of procrastination in our daily lives?




Tune in to gain a new perspective on procrastination, one that Amy assures will equip you with the tools to take charge of your tasks and decisions, shifting the narrative from inaction to intentional action.




“When we decide and take the power to decide how many tomorrows we're going to delay…or how many hours we're going to delay…, that becomes our power driving the action of delay instead of feeling like we are a victim to our procrastination." - Amy Head
