In this episode I share my personal journey and strategies for managing overwhelm in a busy CPA firm. From early career experiences to current stresses, I discuss my signs of overwhelm, including disrupted sleep, lack of focus, and forgetfulness. I outline practical tips like stepping back to identify what's causing the stress, doing a brain dump, prioritizing tasks, communicating with the team, and finding grounding activities such as exercise. I aim to help listeners navigate the challenges of running a business while maintaining mental and physical health.
