About this listen
In this episode, we explore what happens when music goes from uplifting to overwhelming. While it’s often a source of comfort and connection, too much music, especially when it’s constant or passive, can lead to playlist fatigue, emotional burnout, and numbness. We unpack the neuroscience of overstimulation, the emotional toll of passive listening, and how stepping away from music can actually deepen your connection to it. From avoidance to intentional listening, this episode is a reminder that in a world full of sound, silence can be healing.
