Manage episode 480299827 series 3513777
Do you ever feel stuck in a rut—like something’s missing, but you can’t quite name it?
Lately, I’ve been feeling this way in my life in Mexico City. After a powerful therapy session, I finally uncovered what was missing: play.
So naturally, I did what anyone would do in that situation... I called a professional. A play professional (yep, that’s a thing). My real-life friend, Dr. Dave Neale—a play researcher and game designer—joins me for a conversation/coaching session to help me figure out how to bring more play into my adult life.
And wow, did it open something up.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why adults resist play—and how to overcome that block
- Tiny shifts to invite more play into your life (without needing more time or money)
- How play can help dismantle perfectionism, fear, and everyday stress
Hit play to learn how infusing a little play into your day might just change... everything.
