In this episode of Strategies for Living, Dr. David McMillian and psychotherapist Lauren Leon McMillian invite listeners to reimagine what “ASAP” really means. Instead of “as soon as possible,” what if it stood for as slow, soft, soulful, sincere, steady, and sustainable as possible? Together, David and Lauren explore how our modern obsession with speed and productivity—rooted in the Industrial Revolution and amplified by technology—fuels anxiety, burnout, and disconnection. Through personal stories, psychological insights, and practical strategies, they reveal how slowing down isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom. Learn how reframing urgency can restore balance, mindfulness, and presence in everyday life.
