The Lazy Overachiever Show, dubbed TLO, is for mission-driven, brilliant beauties and reformed perfectionists ready for a safe space away from the overly glorified hustle, bustle, and grind culture.
The strategies shared support mental health and well-being while improving productivity by releasing myths around self-care, rest and relaxation, sustainable business practices, people pleasing, and what it means to develop and enforce relationship boundaries at work and home.
I'm your host, Naketa Ren Thigpen, rewriting the narrative around laziness, turning it from a faux pas to a freedom card. As a Balance (and) Relationship Advisor to Power Couples & Potent Humans across the globe, I meet with people with amazing portfolios of accomplishments who can't see their greatness through the mask stapled on from the layers of other people’s betrayal, underappreciation, and expectations.
The notion that we must be badass bosses, sleep when we are dead, and be constantly in go-get-it done mode are just a few of those myths that I see stifling self-trust (and) suffocating dreams that break boxes.
On the TLO, the emphasis is on the person inside the professional. Quality time over quantity of plates you can spin simultaneously without breaking down is crucial here.
We believe rest and relaxation boost mental health. Look forward to a few interviews with potent humans willing to share their truth and narrative episodes with gloves off and hearts open.
The cheekiness of the term "lazy" will have an entirely different meaning once you embrace that we all have a little lazy overachiever in us waiting to be fully embodied.
With love- Naketa Ren Thigpen ♾💜💋

Creating Safety for Stillness with Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy
When you’re ready to shift from the edge of overachievement mode to embrace a little more lazy by accessing calm and self-compassion, it can be challenging to get our mind + body out of that high adrenaline state. For some, it’s extra hard because you know the quieting that comes with stillness can evoke feelings in your body that make you feel unsafe.
It’s why many people lean into statements or mantras that justify their “ability” to do so many things and rebuke the notion that they need moments to slow down and relax a bit. Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy, a potent human and valued leader as a Happiness & Transformational Mindset Coach for dentist and doctors, shares her personal journey, insights, and expertise to the table as she encourages you to create safety so you can be still when you need and choose to be.
