Overwhelm is a Choice
b'
071 - Overwhelm. It's that mind-racing, waves-crashing-over-you feeling that we're all familiar with. If you're not careful, overwhelm can lead to a state of paralysis, which in turn kicks off a shame spiral. And then you're really in the muck. \\U0001f633 \\xa0
So this week's podcast is about recognizing the signs of overwhelm, mindfully assessing the situation, and making a plan for moving forward. Because while overwhelm arises for ALL of us on occasion, staying in a state of overwhelm is a choice\\u2014not an inevitability!
What To Listen For:\\xa0
- Why we're attached to being "busy"
- The ingredients of overwhelm (and what's missing from the equation)
- What to ask yourself when you're feeling overwhelmed
