We’re getting real about overwhelm — the kind that creeps in quietly or crashes down like a piano from the sky. Aly and Andrew are opening up about what it feels like to carry the weight of responsibility as business owners, and how that pressure can sneak into every corner of life.

Through some raw honesty, they unpack the messiness of overwhelm and the ways they’re learning to cope — one to-do list and deep breath at a time.

In this episode:

• Why “I’m fine” sometimes needs a major rebrand

• The many flavours of overwhelm – from life-altering chaos to good ol’ decision fatigue

• When business is booming but your inner world feels… bankrupt

• Keeping your leadership hat on when you’d rather throw it out the window

• Coping strategies that actually help – like compartmentalising, sweating it out, and seeking tiny sparks of joy

• Practicing gratitude 

• How to actually support someone who’s overwhelmed (hint: less advice, more presence)

• A reminder that tough seasons end – and often leave us stronger than before

So take a breath. Be kind to yourself. And if all else fails, put on this episode and know you’re not in it alone. 💛
