<p>This week, our episode is for anyone whose brain just… won’t turn off. Jess and Karli dive into overthinking, indecision, and the mental loops that come with trying to make the “right” choice, realizing that even the smallest daily decisions are often rooted in something deeper: anxiety, control, and perfectionism. They unpack how these patterns show up in their everyday lives, relationships, and routines, and how constantly trying to optimize for their “future selves” can leave them feeling drained in the present. It’s an honest look into what it’s like to be aware of your overthinking but still feel stuck in it without having all the answers or solutions.</p>
