Lisa Bytes: When Everything's Breaking But We Keep Making School Lunches
Manage episode 491071497 series 1299339
Ever feel like the world is falling apart but you're still worried about what to make for dinner? There's actually a term for that, and it might just blow your mind. In this Lisa Bytes episode, I'm sharing a concept that helped me understand not just my own past behavior, but what feels like our entire collective experience right now. Spoiler alert: we're all doing it, and once you see it, you can't unsee it.
What You'll Discover:
- The term "hyper-normalisation" and why it explains SO much about modern life
- How I normalised dysfunction in my own marriage (and why we all do this)
- Why you can scroll from climate disaster news to celebrity gossip without your brain exploding
- What Soviet Russia can teach us about living with broken systems
- The weird disconnect between "everything is falling apart" and "let me plan next week's meals"
- Why that conversation with the finance dad at basketball left me feeling so disoriented
