In this episode, Marsha explores the difference between overflow and overwhelm — and how easily we can confuse the two.
After speaking to a group of women about leading from overflow, Marsha noticed something unexpected: the idea of having more actually created contraction. Overflow felt like overwhelm.
Using the metaphor of a kinked hose, she explains that overwhelm is what happens when everything feels restricted and pressure builds, while overflow is about opening the flow and expanding your capacity to receive, create, and lead.
This episode invites you to identify the beliefs, fears, and subconscious patterns creating the kink in your own hose — and consider what becomes possible when you allow things to flow.
