About this listen

Not all tasks are hard, some just linger.
That unread email. That awkward conversation.

You postpone them, but they don’t go away. They quietly drain you.

This episode uncovers the psychology behind these mental “open loops” and shows you how to create relief, not by getting productive, but by letting go of the noise.

You’ll learn:

  • Why small undone tasks weigh so much mentally

  • The brain science of emotional offloading

  • A quick shift that creates mental clarity without motivation

  • How to spot the right moments to close loops

  • The difference between clearing clutter and chasing productivity

This one’s for anyone who feels tired but hasn’t done much. Turns out, your brain’s been busy.
