The Salty Goddess

Is your planner just cosplay? Are your “quick tasks” taking three hours? You’re not bad at time, you’re just bad at noticing it. In Episode 3 of The Dysfunctional Eight, Anne Margaret Perry rips the bandage off your time-blind habits and gives you a tactical rescue plan for your chaotic clock chaos. Warning: Future You might file a restraining order if you don’t fix this.

You don’t need motivation, you need boundaries on your bullshit. In this week’s spicy installment of The Dysfunctional Eight, we’re dragging habit myths, gutting willpower worship, and building scaffolding strong enough to carry your scattered ass to the finish line. Tiny habits, smart stacking, salty rewards, this is how executive dysfunction gets hijacked, not coddled. Listen up and show up. One habit. One post-it. One dopamine hit at a time.

In this nearly 10-minute Independence Day power drop, Anne Margaret Perry salutes the brave and then goes full verbal fireworks on those still emotionally shackled to partners who treat self-regulation like it’s a paid upgrade they never clicked.
It’s time to break free, not just from colonial rule, but from dysregulated chaos disguised as passion. Spoiler alert: love doesn’t feel like a hostage negotiation.
Buckle up, because this episode blows the lid off emotional captivity with the force of a M80 in a beer can.

Welcome to The Dysfunctional Eight series kickoff—where we drag your executive dysfunction one dumpster fire at a time. In this episode, we’re lighting up your lies: “I work well under pressure,” “I’ll cross that bridge when I get there,” and everyone’s favorite, “I’m just vibing.” No, you’re disorganized. And today, we’re calling out your chaotic Post-It graveyard, unread planners, and that fantasy self with flawless handwriting and zero follow-through. It's time for structure, systems, and salty truth.

They say you’re too much, but what if you’ve just been asking the bare minimum from people who’ve benefited from your silence?
In this no-sugar, fully-cured episode of The Salty Goddess Podcast, Anne Margaret Perry pulls the curtain on performative relationships, those connections that look great in public but leave you drained in private. We talk about partners who show up when there’s an audience (but not when it matters), the guilt-trip gaslighting that follows, and how to reclaim your intrinsic confidence without apology.
Expect truth, a little fire, and real talk on boundaries, burnout, and being the damn plotline, not someone else’s prop.
Whether it’s your spouse, your bestie, your coworker, or your cousin... if you're tired of carrying the emotional load, this one’s your permission slip to drop it.
