When Overwhelm is Present: Leading Through Change, Burnout & Breakthroughs

What if the growth you dreamed of is finally here, but it's arriving as burnout, resistance, and overwhelming transition? In this episode of the Business of Apparel, we unpack what real leadership looks like when everything shifts at once.

We're talking about navigating intense change, both personally and professionally, as the CEO of a growing apparel business. From team burnout and shifting client dynamics to personal therapy breakthroughs and a major life move, Rachel shares how overwhelm can sneak in even during seasons of success. But more importantly, she reframes that overwhelm as a signal is not an identity.

In this episode, you'll hear:

- Leading through business transitions without losing your team

- Burnout signals and how to spot them in yourself and your staff

- Managing rapid business growth alongside personal life changes

- How to frame stress without identifying with it

- Balancing honesty, boundaries, and leadership responsibility
