    136. How to Move from Time Scarcity to Spaciousness

    Do you feel like you're always behind? If so, you're not alone. In this episode, we're exploring time scarcity—the feeling that there is never enough time—and why it's not simply a scheduling problem. It's a nervous system problem. You'll learn the surprising neuroscience behind why feeling rushed narrows your thinking, fuels stress, and keeps you stuck in survival mode. More importantly, you'll discover how small moments of presence can literally change your experience of time. We'll explore: The science of "tunneling" and how scarcity hijacks your attentionWhy high-achieving women are especially vulnerable to time scarcityHow presence shifts your nervous system from survival to safetyWhy tiny moments of white space can create extraordinary changeThe power of taking the long view and letting small daily practices compound over timeRemember: The opposite of time scarcity isn't having more hours. It's having more presence. And the beautiful thing is...you can begin practicing that right now. If this episode resonates with you, I'd love for you to share it with a friend who could use a little more spaciousness in her life. Reference: https://www.rashmischramm.com

    134. Untethering: A Practice for Imperfect Humans

    Solo episode! Please share and review:) Untethering: The Freedom Beyond External Validation - a practice for imperfect humans I'm sharing a favorite Zen saying: Before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment, chop wood, carry water.  The work of life doesn't disappear when we grow — the dishes are still in the sink, the emails still need answering. What changes is our relationship to what we are doing. In this episode, we look at one of the heaviest tethers: the need to be understood. The over-explaining, the justifying, the quiet hope that if we just say it one more time, people will finally get it — and then approve, and then we can move forward. But what if their understanding was never the thing holding us back? We'll explore this through the yogic idea of the witness — the awareness beneath praise, criticism, agreement, and disagreement — and talk about what becomes possible when we stop performing for other people's perceptions and start living from our own ground. This one's an invitation: to notice whose agreement you're still seeking, what explanation you've been rehearsing, and what it might feel like to simply let it go. You do not need everyone to understand your path in order to walk it. Reference: https://www.rashmischramm.com
