Disrupting Default

Episode 01: “I’m So Busy!”

01 Oct 2025

Description

In this inaugural episode of Disrupting Default, we tackle the three words that have become modern life's unofficial motto: "I'm so busy."You're tired of conversations that never go deeper than calendar updates. You've noticed how "busy" has become everything from a polite deflection tool to a bizarre status symbol. This episode is for anyone ready to break free from default responses and start having real conversations again.We explore why people respond to "How are you?" with their schedule instead of their feelings, and when being overwhelmed became an achievement worth bragging about. You'll discover the radical alternative to saying "busy" – actually answering how you feel. Because "I'm grateful" or "I'm anxious" creates infinitely more meaningful conversations than "Busy, you know how it is."Spoiler alert: most people actually don't know how it is, and that's exactly the problem. "Busy" isn't an emotion – it's just a schedule update disguised as human connection.Disrupting Default challenges the automatic responses that keep us stuck, exploring how to replace default thinking with intentional living. New episodes release biweekly.
