Most people think overwhelm means something is wrong with them.
That they’re weak, failing, or not organised enough.
It usually means none of that.
Overwhelm happens when the demand placed on you, by life, work, others, or yourself, is higher than your capacity in that moment.
Capacity fluctuates.
With your nervous system.
With your season of life.
With your natural rhythms and relationships.
In this episode, I unpack overwhelm through three lenses:
the inner world, the natural world, and the relational world, and why understanding how you function matters more than pushing harder.
If you’ve been feeling tired, frustrated, or disappointed in yourself lately, this conversation is for you.
