Psychiatrist Yekaterina Angelova discusses her article "Are you addicted to false urgency?" In this episode, Yekaterina explores how modern professionals, including physicians, get caught in a cycle of constant busyness and fabricated emergencies that drain focus, health, and joy. She explains the neuroscience behind the "mere urgency effect," where our brains prioritize quick tasks over meaningful ones, and how this addiction to urgency fuels burnout and anxiety. Drawing on both research and clinical experience, Yekaterina offers practical strategies to pause, regain perspective, and break the reward cycles that keep us trapped in stress. Viewers will learn how to reclaim calm, redefine productivity, and rediscover balance in a world obsessed with doing more.
