Episode 2·August 26, 2026

The Disconnection at the Root of So Much

You can have people who love you, a full life and plenty to keep you busy and still feel strangely disconnected from yourself. In this episode of It’s Not What You Think, Julie explores how disconnection can sit underneath anxiety, overwhelm, people-pleasing, perfectionism and the feeling that you’re always taking care of everyone else while losing track of what you need. We look at how some of these patterns can begin as ways of maintaining connection with others, why they can follow us long into adulthood and how modern life can make it even easier to keep our attention everywhere except ourselves. Most importantly, we explore what reconnection can actually look like. Not another self-improvement project, but learning to notice yourself again.

Why Logic Hasn't Fixed This Yet

You can understand exactly why you do something and still find yourself doing it again. In this episode, Julie Cochrane explores why logic alone doesn't always change our automatic reactions, where some of these patterns begin and what you can do differently when they show up. Sometimes the better question isn't "Why am I still doing this?" but "What is this trying to do for me?"
