41. Why More Information Isn’t the Answer Right Now (and what to do instead)

What if the reason you feel overwhelmed, scattered, or quietly exhausted isn’t because you don’t know enough—but because you know too much?

In this episode, Kate Garland speaks candidly about why information is failing us in 2026, why the instinct to sign up for one more course may actually be working against your nervous system, and what it really takes to stay steady in a rapidly changing world.

In This Episode, We Explore:

• Why information overload is creating nervous system fatigue
• The difference between being informed and being oriented
• What’s subtly changing in 2026—and why your body already knows
• Why steadiness matters more than transformation right now
• How rhythm and community can regulate what content cannot

If you’ve been asking yourself:

• How do I stay grounded in a changing world?
• Why does more information make me feel worse, not better?
• How do I stop doom-scrolling without numbing out?
• What actually helps when the world feels loud, fast, and uncertain?

This conversation is for you.

And it may gently disrupt the way you think about growth, learning, and support in this season.
