Overcoming The Pattern of Overwhelm
In this short but deeply personal episode, I’m talking about something I know all too well—overwhelm. I’ve been there, and I’ve helped thousands of women navigate their way through it too. If you’re feeling stuck, shut down, or on the verge of burnout, this episode is for you.
I’m sharing the deeper why behind overwhelm—where it really comes from—and how it often shows up as a way to protect us from the fear of failure, rejection, or responsibility. But here’s the good news: we don’t have to live in that cycle. There’s another way.
In this conversation, I walk you through 5 powerful shifts that have helped me—and so many others—move from overwhelmed and overextended to peaceful, powerful, and in motion again.
In This Episode, I Talk About:
- Why overwhelm is more than just “too much to do”
- How trying to control everything actually leads to breakdown
- The real reason we often choose overwhelm over action
- 5 practical shifts to help you reset and reclaim your energy:
- Loosen the control – You don’t have to hold it all
- Allow more – Let go of rigidity and welcome flexibility
- Sift – What needs to stay? What needs to go?
- Soften – Replace judgment with self-compassion
- Move – Take one small, intentional step forward
- What to look for when you feel overwhelm creeping in
- Why perfectionism and pushing harder aren’t the answer
- How to create more space, ease, and clarity—even in busy seasons
A Reminder I Needed (and Maybe You Do Too):
“Overwhelm isn’t one single choice—it’s a stack of choices and beliefs. But you can unstack them. You can reset. You can move forward—one aligned action at a time.”
