What if the cure for overthinking isn't certainty, but evidence?


In this episode of The Focus Trap, Amy and Casey talk about overthinking: what it actually is, how it shows up in photography and everyday life, and why simply calling yourself “an overthinker” can sometimes become part of the problem. They explore the difference between thoughtful decision-making and getting trapped in loops that keep you from taking action.


They also talk about:


• Using evidence instead of anxiety to make decisions
• Why beginners often try to skip steps in the learning process
• Why action creates information that thinking can't
• How nervous systems lag behind conscious understanding
• Closing loops and knowing when you're done


Along the way, there are conversations about 1980s TV theme songs, crying at airport gate agents, stuffed animals as stand-in models, and why sometimes the answer is simply to go take the photo and see what happens.
