262: The Real Reason You're Drawn to Drama and Busyness with Dr. Neeta Bhushan

Hey, Brave Table fam! In this deeply reflective and raw episode, I dive into the messy, beautiful, and often chaotic process of healing generational patterns and breaking free from the addiction to busyness and drama. We talk about the moments when we realize that we’ve been carrying the weight of old narratives, the times we’ve attracted relationships that mirror our chaos, and how to rewrite those stories. I share my personal journey of revisiting my family home in Chicago, confronting old patterns, and balancing motherhood, entrepreneurship, and caretaking for aging elders. This episode is all about reclaiming your peace, rejecting the hustle for validation, and stepping into your truth as the author of your own life. Let's get real and dive deep! What you'll get out of this episode… Breaking the addiction to chaos by recognising the unconscious patterns from our past Visiting family can reawaken old dynamics, it's a chance to reflect and choose a new path We often mistake busyness for worth, but true value comes from alignment, not hustle. You are the author of your life and can rewrite your story at any time. We can't change others, but we can set boundaries with compassion.
