The Input Hangover: When Too Much Learning Becomes Self-Sabotage
Manage episode 486413135 series 3591081
Feeling bloated with content but still stuck in place? This is your loving wake-up call.
In today’s episode of The Elevated Edit, we’re talking about something most ambitious women are afraid to admit: You’re not unmotivated—you’re overconsuming.
If you’ve been filling your brain with podcasts, books, courses, and scrolls but still can’t seem to execute at the level you know you’re capable of… you might be deep in an input hangover. And you’re not alone.
Inside this episode, Blaklee shares:
- What an “input hangover” actually is—and why it’s so sneaky
- How 3–4 hours of ‘productive learning’ nearly sabotaged her goals
- The surprising identity attachment behind binge-learning
- Her 3-step Input Detox Framework (yes, you’ll want to write this down)
- Why applied knowledge—not just knowledge—is your new power in the age of AI
- The real reason you’re overwhelmed (and how to find clarity again)
Power Moves:
- Do a time audit. See where your input is stealing your output.
- Commit to one goal → one mentor → one tool.
- Ask, “What would I do if I trusted myself?”
