Episode Synopsis

What if the secret to getting more done… was caring slightly less?In this episode, Kathy is joined by the marvellous Claire Ennion to chat about Half Arse Human, a book by Leena Norms that’s basically a love letter to doing things imperfectly, on purpose.They cover:– Why perfectionism is overrated (and exhausting)– Bother points: those tiny but mighty obstacles that stall us– Why decision-making is so hard (and a trick to make it easier)– The underrated joy of doing something just a bit, instead of not at all– Plus, why Ernie beats Bert in the battle of sustainable changeThis isn’t about slacking off. It’s about showing up without burning out — and giving yourself permission to do life with a bit more kindness and a bit less martyrdom. Half-arsed, but wholehearted.Perfect for anyone who’s a little bit tired, trying their best, and ready to stop waiting for the mythical “perfect time.”
