About the Episode

In this second episode of Solved, Drew and I go deep into the psychology, history, and science of procrastination. From Plato and Aristotle to Freud and modern research, we break down why we delay the things that matter most—and how to actually stop.

This is not a “just set a timer” productivity talk. We’re diving deep into shame, identity, perfectionism, culture, and why procrastination is ultimately a skill issue, not a moral failure. We cover things like:

  • How humans have thought about putting things off for over 2000 years
  • The real reason you avoid the most important tasks in your life
  • Why “I work better under pressure” is (usually) BS
  • Why self-compassion is actually more motivating than guilt
  • Tons of practical, research-backed strategies you can start using today

And much, much, much more.
