Life is joyful, stressful, chaotic, and never seems to slow down. Between the laundry, emails, deadlines, and all the things you want to make time for (like rest, hobbies, or time with your people), it’s no wonder your brain feels maxed out. In this episode, I’m diving into the messy reality of overwhelm, why it shows up, how it snowballs, and what you can do when it feels like too much.

I’ll share gentle mindset shifts, questions to reflect on, and real-life examples (including my own) to help you process your overwhelm with a little more self-compassion.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why overwhelm hits differently when you have ADHD or executive functioning challenges
• The “something goes up, something has to go down” mindset shift
• How to spot (and stop) the habit of comparing yourself to a past version of you
• Questions to ask when you're in survival mode and need to re-center
• Reframes and reminders to support yourself when overwhelm takes over
