If you're listening to this and still feel stuck, this episode is for you—because chances are, you're not lazy. You're capable, responsible, and used to getting things done.
In this episode, Sue breaks down why discipline is sometimes the wrong tool for the job. More rules, pressure, and control don't lead to better results; they lead to burnout. Not because you're failing, but because your plan was built for an ideal version of you that doesn't exist in real life.
She unpacks how awareness—not self-judgment—is the starting point for real change, and why designing systems around how you actually function makes progress easier to execute.
Because you don't need to try harder. You need a strategy that works with you, not against you.
