What if your procrastination and inner critic were actually trying to help you, not sabotage you? In this episode, Mary sits down with psychotherapist and author Britt Frank to unpack the myths and truths behind fear, procrastination, and the complex cast of “parts” within our minds, as explored in Britt’s new book, Align Your Mind.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • Why procrastination isn’t a moral failing, but a physiological fear response—and how to respond without shame
  • The difference between “brake pedal” and “gas pedal” procrastination, and quick, science-backed ways to break free from each
  • How parts work helps you make peace with your inner critic and shadow sides, turning them into powerful allies
  • The surprising truth about “golden shadows” and how owning your hidden strengths can propel you further
  • Practical, offbeat tools like biting into a lemon or jumping in place to reset your brain and overcome being stuck

After listening, you’ll walk away with a whole new perspective on your struggles, feeling empowered to work with every part of yourself (even the ones you usually try to silence), and equipped with practical tools to move forward with greater self-compassion and clarity.
