In this episode, Heather unpacks the surprising psychology of procrastination and reveals a deeper, less obvious cause of procrastination, The Jonah Complex. This is a term coined by Abraham Maslow to describe the fear of our own greatness. It is the kind of procrastination that keeps you from stepping into your true calling.
Heather shares her personal Jonah Complex moment and the emotional tension between safety and self-actualization. Whether you’re putting off a task or postponing a dream, this episode offers a blend of storytelling, research, and real-world strategies to help you move forward.
In this deeply personal solo episode, you’ll hear:
· The surprising connection between procrastination and purpose
· Heather’s own Jonah moment, and what finally pushed her forward
· How the fear of visibility and vulnerability often hides beneath “I’m just not ready”
· What Maslow’s theory of self-actualization has to teach us about courage
· A powerful invitation to stop running and start becoming who you were meant to be.
Listen now and take your next courageous step, not when the timing is perfect, but because you’re ready.
