Are You a Busy Fool? How to Stop Being Busy and Start Making Real Progress

Are you constantly busy but not really moving forward? This episode is your wake-up call to stop doing for the sake of doing — and start living and working with purpose. In this episode of the Real Talk Podcast, Hayley, Siobhan, Lorraine and Pippa unpack the concept of being a “busy fool” — that endless cycle of doing, achieving, and ticking boxes without making meaningful progress. The hosts get candid about burnout, boundaries, and how social media and perfectionism feed our obsession with busyness. They share practical ways to break the pattern, including intentional living, systemising tasks, leveraging AI tools, and setting realistic boundaries to avoid overwhelm. From social media fatigue and people-pleasing to emotional regulation and self-reflection, this conversation is a masterclass in slowing down to speed up. If you’ve ever felt stuck on the hamster wheel of productivity, this one’s for you. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: How to recognise when you’re trapped in “busy work” that doesn’t move the needle The importance of intentional living and self-awareness for personal growth Why burnout is often a symptom of avoidance and lack of systems How to set boundaries and create white space for clarity and creativity Practical strategies for using AI and automation to simplify your workflow How to find balance between consistency, authenticity, and rest MEET YOUR HOSTS Hayley Appleby-Burtt – Branding expert, designer & creative genius.
