Learning can become a place to hide when decisions feel risky. Not because learning is bad. But because some forms of learning don’t require exposure, especially if they’re not tied to taking action and experimentation. If you experience what I’m describing here, check out this episode. It’ll give you something to explore in your own time.

No hype. No fixing. Just an honest reflection and something practical to try.
