EPISODE 2
Procrastination, Solved
What if procrastination isn’t the problem—but a symptom of something deeper? In this episode, we unpack the hidden drivers behind our avoidance: the fear of failure, the pressure to be perfect, and the shame we silently carry. From ancient philosophy to cutting-edge psychology, we explore how procrastination isn't about laziness—it's about how we relate to ourselves and our goals. This isn’t just another productivity pep talk. It’s a deep dive into why we delay and how to finally move forward.
A Self-Help Podcast
for Smart People
Relentlessly researched.
Thoughtfully delivered.
Occasionally funny.
Hey, I’m Mark Manson—NYT bestselling author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck (and a few other books you might’ve heard of). I’ve written and coached on everything from dating to productivity over the years, but I’m best known for doing things a little differently when it comes to life advice. Call me old fashioned, but I think when you invest your time in listening or consuming something, you should get a meaningful result. So, if you’re the type of person who likes real insights, backed by actual research, that will make a measurable difference in your life, I made this podcast for you.
The goal of each Solved episode is to be so comprehensive that it’s not only the last podcast episode you’ll ever need on that topic, but also the last we’ll ever make.
No ads. No filler. No long-winded tangents about someone’s morning routine.
Just obsessively-researched, practical, & useful answers to your biggest life questions.
