HOW OVERWHEM HAPPENS

Busyness

Comparison

Unrealistic expectations

Distraction and lack of focus on what matters

THE STRATEGIES I USE TO MANAGE OVERWHELM

* Beautiful to-do lists

* Gratitude journal

* Worship music

* Intentional margin

* Cutting down on my list (keeping life simple and sweet)

* Verbalizing what matters

* Identifying my A/B/C priorities

* Adding to my “champagne moments” journal

* More quality time with my husband and family

* Exercise

* Hyper-focus on baby steps (stop overcomplicating things)

* Doing something that scares me daily (typically this is just what I am avoiding)

* The de-clutter method – 15-minutes of focused cleansing

LISTENER OF THE EPISODE:

Hi Trish,

I’ve discovered your podcasts about 3 months ago and I really love listening to them. I think you are doing an amazing job and I feel so identified in the younger you.

I am 21 and I rationally know I have an amazing life. I am attending the University of my dreams, I am healthy and I have a great and supportive family. Yet, I cant be happy and enjoy it because I am (and edpecially feel) fat. Ive been having food issues and low self esteem for 3 years now and I would really love to beat this and just be happy.

I was wondering if you could make some more podcasts about loving yourself...
