Have you ever felt like your to-do list is multiplying before your eyes and you’re barely able to keep up? In this episode, I’m sharing my own experiences with overwhelm and why so many ambitious women struggle with it as they juggle big dreams, demanding careers, and packed lives. You’ll hear how to spot the subtle signs that overwhelm has crept in—not just as panic, but also as irritability, indecision, perfectionism, and even mental clutter—and discover the common triggers that set us up for that exhausting cycle. Most importantly, I break down the simple steps I use to clear my head, regain momentum, and create space for joy again. If you’re craving more balance and want to trade chaos for clarity, you’re in the right place to find your way back to a lighter, more manageable life as you create your next chapter.
