PATREON ONLY EPISODE 45: “FUTURE FANTASY IS NOT A PLAN”

RELEASE DATE: 5/18/2025

In this episode: Jen explains a thought-provoking concept she recently learned—the difference between having a real plan of action for a life goal versus being stuck in a future fantasy about that goal. She walks through how being in a future fantasy is a habitual way to regulate our emotions, while actually making a plan would require being present—which can trigger dysregulation. So we avoid it. Mind. Blown.
