This week on Good Egg Podcast, we’re exploring the radical idea of doing nothing — and asking whether “laziness” might actually be one of the most productive things we can practice.

What if rest isn’t a reward for productivity, but a requirement for it? Why does saying “I’m busy” feel more respectable than “I’m resting” — and why does downtime make so many of us anxious?

Join Jasmyn and Michelle as they unpack society’s obsession with hustle, the guilt tied to relaxation, and the subtle ways capitalism and social media have taught us to equate worth with output. From fake productivity habits and early memories of rest-shame to burnout, boredom, and the fear of stillness, they get personal about why slowing down feels so uncomfortable — and why that discomfort matters.

They also dive into the science behind rest, including how downtime activates the brain’s Default Mode Network, fuels creativity, supports emotional processing, and even slows biological aging. Plus: why boredom is a creativity catalyst, why unstructured time is essential for kids (and adults), and how our best ideas often arrive when we stop trying so hard.

This episode includes a bold experiment — one full minute of awkward silence — and an invitation to notice what comes up when we stop filling the space.

Your hosts, Jasmyn and Michelle, are kicking things off with 16 years of friendship energy to bring you a listening experience that feels like grabbing coffee (or a carton of eggs?) with your besties. We’re talking about everything and everything under the sun—from the random laughs to the deep, worldly "yolk."

In this episode, we’re diving into:

• The Good, The Bad, and The Eggy: Our signature weekly check-in. We’re sharing our version of the "Rose, Thorn, and Bud" to see how our week actually scrambled up.

• Main Topic: Cracking Into 2026: It’s time for some intentional vision-setting. Forget the messy glue-stick vision boards; we’re breaking down our "Canva Method" for manifesting the new year. We walk through our 7 core categories—from "For Funzies" to Financials—and challenge you to set your own intentions for 2026.

• Hard-Boiled Questions: We’re turning up the heat! Since we’re waiting for your write-ins, we’ve borrowed some of the internet’s juiciest dilemmas. We’re tackling everything from "career vs. love" to the "talking stage" limbo.

Being a Good Egg in 2026 isn't about being perfect—it’s about being intentional. So, pull up a seat, get comfy, and let's get cracking!
