In this episode of Hitchhiker’s Guide to Humanity, your favorite host (who finally remembers to introduce herself on air), erica from Earth Decoded, gets real about the pressure to “seize the day” and the toxic productivity culture hiding behind ancient Stoic quotes. Inspired by a passage from the Daily Stoic, this episode unpacks the shame spiral around doing “nothing,” why existing is a revolutionary act, and how resting your nervous system is actually part of your soul mission.

You’ll hear hot takes on Seneca’s motivational guilt trip, why capitalism is the real villain, and how to find peace in the meh.

You don’t have to be a content machine. You’re human. That’s enough.
