Ever find yourself knee-deep in a Wikipedia spiral about haunted castles in Scotland when you were supposed to be finishing that work thing?

Going down a rabbit hole can leave you shaming yourself for being unfocused and lazy. But what if rabbit holes weren’t the enemy? What if you could ditch the shame, tame your tangents, and use them as fuel?

On this episode of Get It Together, Weirdo, get your shit together coach and host Sarah Bowser shares her hot take that tangents are actually secret paths to productivity. She discusses why rabbit holes happen, how they can fuel creativity and insight, and when to recognize whether a rabbit hole is helping or just helping you procrastinate.

For years, Sarah beat herself up over distractions and non-linear thinking, until she realized that reframing her so-called “chaos” not only helped her get her shit together but also made her brain feel less broken and more powerful.
