Ever feel like you’re carrying too much—but you just keep going? In this solo episode of The Crazy Ex-Wives Club, Erica gets real about stress, burnout, and the sneaky ways we ignore the warning signs until it’s too late. She shares her personal experience of pushing through exhaustion, how stress disguised itself as “just life,” and what finally forced her to slow down and listen to her body.

Whether you're juggling too many commitments, running on empty, or feeling like you’ve lost yourself in the chaos, this episode will help you pause, reset, and start making changes that actually stick.

🔑 Key Themes & Takeaways:

• 🔥 Stress Is Sneaky – How we unknowingly pile on too much and fail to recognize the signs of burnout.

• 💡 The Breaking Point – The moment stress shifts from “manageable” to “completely overwhelming” (and why we often don’t see it coming).

• 🛑 The Myth of High-Functioning Stress – Feeling productive doesn’t mean you’re okay—why our bodies keep score even when our minds say we’re fine.

• 🌿 Relearning Rest & Digest – Understanding how your nervous system handles stress (and how to activate the side that actually helps you recover).

• 🔄 Small Shifts, Big Impact – The subtle but powerful changes that can help you create balance without completely overhauling your life.

• ✨ The Power of Saying No – Recognizing when to scale back, how to reset expectations, and why prioritizing yourself isn’t selfish—it’s survival.
