398. Your Brain Needs a Summer Job (Or It'll Create One)

Your brain was designed to solve problems.

But if you don't intentionally give it something meaningful to focus on, it will create problems where none need to exist.

In this episode, Dr. Edie Wadsworth shares why creating something beautiful—even during difficult seasons—can completely change the way you experience your life.

From knitting a sweater through hospital waiting rooms to planting tomatoes, learning new skills, and setting simple 90-day goals, this conversation is an invitation to stop letting your brain default to criticism and instead give it something life-giving to build.

If you've been overthinking, worrying, criticizing yourself, or feeling stuck, this episode is the gentle reset your mind may need.
