In this week’s episode of Productivity Nerd, Kathy explores the idea of glimmers — those small, quiet moments that make your nervous system breathe a sigh of relief.
They’re the opposite of triggers. A whiff of toast. A stranger’s kind wave. That one perfect pen. These tiny cues of safety and calm can help shift us into a more focused, grounded state — which, as it turns out, is very good news for your productivity.
Expect a bit of neuroscience (hello Polyvagal Theory), a sprinkle of psychology, and plenty of practical reasons to start noticing the good stuff. Because when your brain learns to look for glimmers, it finds more of them. And that makes everything — including your inbox — a little easier to face.
