E255 Why Procrastination Isn't Your Enemy with Sarah Laverty
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Struggling with procrastination? What if your procrastination isn't your enemy, but a message trying to reach you? In this episode, Denise talks with embodiment coach Sarah Laverty about how listening to it, instead of fighting it, can turn it into a friend.
Sarah Laverty is an embodiment coach based in Northern Ireland. She specialises in helping women to develop unshakeable self trust and confidence by getting out of their heads and into their bodies - and right now she's on a mission to turn procrastination from your worst enemy into your best friend.
In this episode:
Sarah shares that procrastination isn't you being lazy or broken — it's your subconscious trying to send you a message.
She explains that real procrastination is different from just not wanting to do something. It's when part of you wants to move forward and another part is holding you back.
She talks about her own health scare in her mid-20s that forced her to stop overthinking everything and start listening to her body instead.
Sarah breaks down her three "procrastination archetypes" — the Inner Winter, the Inner Protector, and the Inner Rebel — and how each one is trying to help you, not hurt you.
She reminds us that the Inner Rebel isn't bad news. It's the playful part of you that just wants more joy, more fun, and more you in your own life.
Sarah gives simple ways to check in with your body, like noticing if you feel restless, drained, or bored before jumping straight to your to-do list.
She says the fix for restlessness isn't forcing yourself to sit still — sometimes you just need to get up and take a fast walk to shake it loose.
She opens up about her own "aha" moment discovering she had zero clue what she was actually feeling, and how learning to feel her feelings changed everything.
Sarah leaves us with one beautiful line: your procrastination has something to teach you, and if you slow down and listen, you'll find a friend.
