Healing Unfiltered by Erin Burns

Episode notes

You know what to do. You’ve made the list. You’ve set the goals. So why does following through still feel impossible?

In this episode, we’re unpacking what’s really going on when you feel stuck, avoidant, or paralyzed—even when you genuinely want to take action. Spoiler: it’s not because you’re lazy or unmotivated.

We dive into the science behind executive dysfunction, the role of your nervous system in shutdown and overwhelm, and why your brain might be saying “go” while your body keeps saying “no.”

Whether you’re struggling with procrastination, burnout, ADHD, or just feeling like you're constantly letting yourself down—this episode will help you understand why, and give you compassionate language for what’s really happening beneath the surface.
