The Lost Art of Boredom: What Happens When You Stop Staying Busy with Rebecca Wilson
What if staying busy is actually getting in the way of your best thinking?
In this episode, Joyan sits down with award-winning executive coach, speaker and meditation teacher Rebecca Wilson to explore the lost art of boredom — and why high performers may need more of it than they realize.
Together, they unpack why slowing down can feel so uncomfortable, what constant stimulation is doing to our ability to think deeply, and why learning to sit with discomfort may be one of the most valuable skills a leader can develop.
In this conversation, we explore:
- Why high performers struggle to slow down
- What “inner mastery” really means for sustainable high performance
- Why boredom and stillness matter for better thinking
- How to tell whether you’re productive or simply busy
