249. When Nostalgia Becomes a Trap
It starts out sweet: an old song, a photo, a memory that makes you smile. But what happens when reminiscing becomes your full-time residence?
Join Anna and Tim as they unpack what it really means to get stuck in the past. From reliving high school glory days to TikTok rabbit holes of '70s rock concerts, they get honest about their own brushes with nostalgia addiction. Anna opens up about how replaying vinyl and scrolling vintage content started pulling her down, and Tim brings the grounded reminder that looking back isn't the problem; it's staring too long that costs you.
This Episode Covers:
- When nostalgia crosses into avoidance.
- The neurochemical payoff of the “good old days”.
- Anna’s personal wake-up call with '70s vinyl and TikTok.
- The emotional trap of trying to recreate old friendships or teams.
- What “look back, but don’t stare” really means in daily life.
- How unprocessed loneliness shows up as longing for the past.
- The quiet grief of a life that’s changed, and the power of choosing the now.
- Ways to build new moments worth remembering.
Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.
Mad love!
