Note 34: Sunday Scaries Reset: When You Feel Yourself Shrinking Again


Listen Later

That familiar Sunday feeling hits…

Your chest feels tight.

Your thoughts start racing.

And suddenly, you feel smaller than you did just a few days ago.

If you’ve ever noticed yourself shrinking as the week approaches, doubting your voice, your decisions, or your place, this episode is for you.

In this Sunday Scaries Reset, Yaya walks you through why this feeling shows up, especially when you’ve been pushing yourself, growing, or showing up in new ways. This isn’t failure. It’s not a weakness. It’s your nervous system responding to change.

This episode serves as a reminder to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself before the week begins.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

  1. Why shrinking often shows up before expansion
  2. How Sunday anxiety is connected to self-trust and safety
  3. A gentle mindset reset to calm your body and mind
  4. How to stop overthinking Monday before it even arrives
  5. Why you’re not doing anything wrong for feeling this way

This isn’t about fixing your life tonight.

It’s about grounding yourself so you can start the week feeling steadier, clearer, and more supported.

Take a breath with me. You don’t have to figure everything out right now.

If this episode helped you, save it for next Sunday or share it with someone who could use a little extra believe-in-yourself energy tonight.
