Show Notes

Abby and Glennon attempt a Relaxation Intervention, which Amanda sabotages – resulting in a riveting discussion of why we can’t (don’t) de-stress, and how relaxation can help us ALL feel a little more human:


  • Why so many of us have lost our playful, silly, absurd selves – and how we might recover them; 
  • The “Relaxation Homework” Abby assigned to Amanda; 
  • How over-functioners can channel their superpower into being fully alive; 
  • Why it’s not our job to ensure things won’t fall apart, but to accept that they absolutely will;  
  • And the one “tracking” tool Amanda will use to find more moments of connection.
