the culture of unrushing

Society EN ↓ 3 episodes

Close your eyes (unless you're driving, then don't, but if that's the case, you shouldn't be reading this either). Imagine the last time you rushed, or were rushed - to react or decide. Now think of a situation where you truly enjoyed yourself or when something CLICKED, and you thought to yourself - am I a genius or what? What do you notice? In a world that only accelerates, actively learning to unrush feels more important than ever. In this podcast, I will be exploring solo & with others how we can loosen the grips of the culture of urgency to make space for a culture of unrushing instead.

In my late 20s, I used to feel a specific type of tension: can you be an ambitious person and prioritise your wellbeing, enjoy your life and not rush all the time? Is the model I know from American movies from the early 2000s THE ONLY way?? Is wanting to be globally recognised and touching grass on a random Tuesday morning mutually exclusive? And if it’s not - how to do it? In this solo podcast ep...
