Ever felt so overwhelmed by training, competing, or goal-setting that you just… shut down? Or maybe you avoid, overthink, or try to push through but end up more frustrated. In this episode, we’re breaking down why overwhelm happens (hint: it’s not because you’re lazy!) and how to recognize your unique stress response. Whether you freeze, fight, flight, fawn, or flop, I’ll help you reframe the cycle, stop beating yourself up, and actually move forward—without burnout.
