If you've ever felt like your to-do list keeps growing even when no one is actually asking anything of you… like everything somehow turns into a demand the moment it enters your awareness, this episode is for you. We're going to talk about something called demand sensitivity: why pressure can feel so intense and how to start shifting out of 'should mode' so your life feels lighter and more intentional.

In this episode, you will learn:

• What demand sensitivity is and why pressure feels so intense
• How "should mode" creates overwhelm, guilt, and resistance
• How to start shifting your relationship with demands so you feel more ease and choice
