Episode Why You Never Have Enough Time
According to some studies, over 80% of Americans experience time scarcity. In this episode, Joe and Brett explore what’s going on when we feel time scarce. They unpack why so many of us feel starved for time in an era of unprecedented efficiency, and provide clear, actionable insights into how presence and emotional awareness can change our perception of time itself.
They cover:
• Why time scarcity is more about emotional overwhelm than actual hours • The paradox of saving time but still feeling busier than ever • How presence shifts our experience of time • The role of grief, fear, and shame in the feeling of “not enough” • The importance of rest, integration, and flow states
