Linear Time vs Spiral Time

What if time isn't something we fight against, but it's a portal?

This is an episode for chronic rushers!


Fresh off a month in California reconnecting with family, old friends, and my own sense of aliveness, I came home with something I haven’t been able to stop thinking about: Spiral Time.

Most of us are running our lives — and our businesses — on a linear time model borrowed from the industrial age. Clock in, check off, hustle harder. And it’s quietly draining the joy, creativity, and presence right out of us.

In this episode, I share a lived, embodied experience of what it feels like to step out of that model and into something more spacious — a spiral way of moving through time that actually works with your intuition, your nervous system, and your creative power.

We talk about:

  • Why time is a matter of perception (and how to use that to your advantage)

  • What happens to your decision-making when urgency takes over

  • How to stop being a victim of time — and start being its creator

  • And how structural time and spiral time can beautifully coexist

This one is for you if you’ve ever felt like you’re always behind, always rushing — but suspect there’s another way. There is. 🌀
