Listen Later

Feeling overwhelmed? This episode breaks down the 5 stages of overwhelm and helps you identify where you are—and how to move toward more clarity and control over your time.

If you’re constantly juggling responsibilities and wondering why time management feels so elusive, this episode is for you. Kelly walks through the five stages of overwhelm she sees working women experience—from frozen overwhelm to firefighting to feeling empowered and calm. You’ll learn how mental freedom and realistic intentionality are the key ingredients to finally ditching the overwhelm and feeling more on top of it all.

We’ll cover:

  • What “overwhelm” really is and how it shows up for professional women

  • The difference between feeling productive and actually being in control

  • Why “just working harder” doesn’t solve time management stress

  • The system you need to feel confident about your time, priorities, and boundaries

Whether you're a working mom, a corporate professional, or a business owner, this episode gives you a clear roadmap for identifying where you are in the overwhelm cycle—and how The Bright Method can help you break out of it.
