Whether your inbox is flooded, your DMs are piling up, or you're just plain overstimulated, this episode is your permission slip to stop responding to everything like it’s a fire drill.
Here’s what you’ll hear:
1.) Why every message doesn’t deserve a reply—and how to tell the difference
2.) How to stop treating work like a courtroom (you’re not on trial, promise)
3.) Practical ways to prioritize what actually needs your energy
4.) What ignoring with intention looks like (and why silence is a superpower)
5.) And the real reason vague DMs are getting ghosted
From Pavlovian pings to text message booty calls (yep), this one’s packed with the hard-earned wisdom of two recovering over-responders. You’ll laugh, nod along, and maybe even mute a few notifications.

”Life is not a rap battle. You don't have to respond to every single point right away. You're not Eminem.”
“I don’t do work booty calls.”
”If it doesn't feed you or free you or feel fun, then it's probably not worth your immediate attention.”
“It's okay to put it aside or reconsider it or let it go. You have to be able to assess the risk of that and to live with the consequences."
DISCLAIMER: This episode is not explicit, though contains mild swearing that may be unsustainable for younger audiences.
