Have you noticed the days feeling heavier lately—where the things you usually love start to feel like obligations? On The Big and Small Podcast, Jason and Marit dive into the reality of winter depression, the biological facts behind seasonal shifts, and why acknowledging the struggle is the first step toward working with it instead of against it.
This conversation goes beyond "just push through it" advice. You'll discover why awareness doesn't make you immune to difficulty (it actually makes you see more), how to work with your body's natural rhythms instead of fighting them, and the crucial difference between staying in the struggle versus staying on purpose.
What You'll Learn:
00:00 - Staying on purpose during uncertain times
02:06 - Why your body reacts even when your mind is clear
04:23 - The awareness paradox: seeing more holes as you grow
06:39 - Depression as a frequency, not an identity
08:59 - Winter depression: the biological reality of darkness
13:38 - The cultural fantasy of emotional immunity
18:52 - Why comparing your process to others' highlight reels sabotages growth
22:27 - The consistency principle: how water carved the Grand Canyon
27:17 - Building on purpose through highs and lows
29:41 - Working with difficulty like bottom side control in Jiu-Jitsu
