Summary
In this episode of Sorry Soul, host Miss Shae explores the absurdity of human overthinking, particularly in relationships. She discusses why we often fixate on trivial details, like punctuation in texts, while ignoring significant red flags. The conversation delves into the psychological reasons behind these behaviours, including familiarity bias and cognitive dissonance. Miss Shae offers practical steps to break the cycle of overthinking and encourages listeners to trust actions over words and set decision deadlines.
