Mid-February often brings a subtle heaviness — not necessarily burnout or crisis, but accumulation.
In this episode, Andryanna explores the difference between energy and capacity, why resentment is often a signal of exceeded mental load, and how to stop coping and start raising your baseline.
Rather than chasing motivation or adding more goals, this conversation focuses on internal standards, boundaries, emotional regulation, and practical ways to increase resilience especially as we continue to navigate late winter.
In this episode:
• Why seasonal patterns often peak mid-February
• Cognitive load theory and emotional saturation
• The difference between energy and capacity
• What coping mode really looks like for women
• How resentment signals exceeded capacity
• How to raise your baseline standards
• Concrete steps to reduce silent resentment
• Recovery rituals to shorten stress spirals
• Choosing friction intentionally
It's a grounded and emotionally honest reset for women navigating work, motherhood, relationships, and the mental load.
