#86: How to Get Content Ideas Without Overthinking


If you’re constantly consuming content but still struggling to come up with ideas… this episode is your reset.
Jeff Harry argues that the problem isn’t a lack of inspiration, it’s too much input.
In this episode, we break down why overconsumption leads to overthinking, how that blocks creativity, and what actually helps you generate better content ideas (hint: it’s not more scrolling).
You’ll learn how to:
- Stop relying on inspiration from other creators
- Break out of the doomscrolling cycle
- Use boredom as a creative advantage
- Create content that feels natural, not forced
If you’ve ever thought, “I know I should be creating, but I just can’t get started”—this one’s for you.
