Are you secretly running on anxiety, even as everyone praises your productivity, drive, and ability to “do it all”? I'm joined by an award-winning psychologist, Dr. Lalitaa Suglani, who breaks down the difference between being simply driven and silently battling high-functioning anxiety—a line so thin, most of us don't even realize we've crossed it.We'll dive deep into what high-functioning anxiety really is, how it hides behind ambition, and why so many busy, successful women are silently caught in its grip. Dr. Lalitaa reveals how childhood patterns might still be running the show, why saying “yes” is sometimes a sign you're feeling “not enough,” and how external success can actually keep you stuck in survival mode. You'll find out what high-functioning anxiety really looks like from the inside out, how it might be showing up in your body, and the practical next steps to help you break free from the overwhelming cycle without sacrificing your ambition or success. By the end of the episode, you'll have the tools to start drawing boundaries and understanding your triggers so you can stay ambitious without the constant wave of stress, guilt, or shame. Hit play and let's dive in.4:53 – What High Functioning Anxiety Really Looks Like for High Achievers11:02 – How Childhood Experiences Shape Adult Anxiety 18:58 – How to Spot the Difference Between Being Driven or Overwhelmed and the External Red Flags of High-Functioning Anxiety 24:11 – The First Real Step to Feeling Better (It's NOT Just Slowing Down)28:57 – The Tools and Therapies that Actually Help and How to Find Support32:36 – What Life After Healing From High-Functioning Anxiety Can Look Like Episode Links:Connect with Dr. Lalitaa: Website | InstagramGrab Dr. Lalitaa's book on High-Functioning Anxiety

More often than not we just have too much in our head.  Too many tasks that we can't even write them down…that's when we need to stop.  How do I know? This was me last week.  Maybe it was because we were in a busy season of three kids doing sports, or that I was traveling every weekend and playing catch up during the week, or maybe it was all the things that I take care of and the invisible mental load piling up.  We as moms hold so much, the invisible mental load, household management, work management, the social schedule, appointments, errands, meal prep, etc.  So what do we do when we don't even know what tasks are a priority? When everything seems important? Oftentimes I hear from clients that they don't even know where to start, or what task they should prioritize, because every task seems important.  Today we will walk through some practical steps to use when you don't know where to start and your to-do list seems out of control.  We will break down your to-do list and help you get clarity, so that you can prioritize and have more peace knowing you are working on the most important thing.  Grab that coffee and let's get started!  Reminder We have some fun things coming up this fall.  Use code: FALLREFRESH10 to get 10% off a coaching call with me.  (https://byrdmichelle.thrivecart.com/unstuck-personal-coaching-60min/) If you are listening to this episode and need some help carving out time, working through a transition, or trying to balance work and life.  I would love to help you:  You can leave a message on the website www.byrdmichelle.com  You can grab the free Productivity Planner that I use with all my clients, on my website www.byrdmichelle.com  You can book a 20 min Discovery Call with me totally free and we can talk though what you need (https://calendly.com/byrd-michelle/bonus-one-time-un-stuck-time-management-coachin-clone) As always if you have any questions or want to just say hi you can reach me at contact@byrdmichelle.com.

Many families feel overwhelmed today, but are we overwhelmed for the right reasons? Kay Wyma examines why we need God's truth instead of cultural pressures of performance, beauty, and perfectionism.

Connect with me here! Send me a text message! Is it just me or are you exhausted from the constant busyness of life? Ovewhelemd by the tasks at hand. Constantly striving for success only to come up empty handed?Busyness does not equal success- there are so many days where I feel like I've ‘accomplished' something but then when I really look back its all a bunch of nonsense that really didn't give me any human connection or time with my family or growth in my faith. It was just stuff i thought I needed to do to move a certain invisible needle forward…to gain what? To accomplish what?I'm not saying that doing work is a bad thing. We DO need to work and we can't be lazy BUT when we find ourselves exhausted from the grind it is time to take a good look at ourselves and reevaluate our priorities.Take inventory of what is most important to you. Do you value time with your spouse or friends or kids? Are you extrovert so you know that you need some good quality time with people to fill your cup or are you introverted and know that some quiet time with jesus will really fill you? Again this is about us reevaluate our true desires for our life and what we are actually putting our effort into. I encourage you to make two lists- one that shows the desires you have for your life- in relationships, in ministry, at work etc. Then the second list write down your actual actiivtes over the next few days…how you actually spent your time and energy. Then compare. Are the activities you are giving your energy too fulfilling the desires of your heart2. REST- seems so obvious but why is it so hard to do??- Learn to say no-Schedule actual downtime for rest-Get outside!! 3. SLOW DOWN- No the same as resting although they are like sisters lol -Slowing down is choice to say no. To stop and literally smell the roses. To choose to pay attention to what is right in front of you instead of worrying about what comes next. To seek Him first and let HIM take care of the rest. -This involves keeping up with ‘tasks' but allowing yourself to breathe while you do it. Be encouraged, challenged and blessed today!!Grab your downloadable scripture cards here>> https://stan.store/mrsangelapitnikoff/p/30-scripture-cards✨Come hang with me on IG- https://www.instagram.com/mrsangelapitnikoff/✨Join our FB sisterhood!- https://www.facebook.com/groups/kingdomdaughterssisterhood✨Want some fun free resources?

They got curious. They did the work. And they developed tools that not only brought healing to their own marriage, but are now helping countless couples thrive through their counseling center, podcast, and programs.This isn't a story about perfection—it's a story about partnership, growth, and hope.

Has differentiation always felt like the most overwhelming part of your lesson plan?host Beth Vaucher dives deep into one of the most pressing challenges educators face: how to differentiate instruction for English Language Learners (ELLs) without feeling overwhelmed. This episode unpacks a practical, three-step framework that empowers teachers to support students at all language levels while maintaining a single, streamlined lesson plan. If you've ever found yourself stressed trying to create five versions of the same lesson or unsure what differentiation even means for language learners, this episode offers immediate relief and clarity.Beth begins by validating the very real struggle teachers face when juggling multiple proficiency levels, language domains, and curriculum expectations. Instead of overcomplicating things, she shows educators how to start with language data—such as WIDA levels and can-do descriptors—and plan intentionally based on what students can do. You'll learn why understanding these levels and aligning expectations accordingly builds both student confidence and academic progress.The episode then explores how to maintain one strong content objective and simply scaffold supports based on student needs. From tiered vocabulary cards to sentence stems and visual aids, Beth outlines easy-to-implement tools that unlock content without requiring multiple lessons. Finally, she walks through how to differentiate the output, not the content, so all students can meet the objective in a way that matches their language level—from labeling visuals to writing structured paragraphs.Beth also models how this approach works in a real lesson, using anchor texts like videos or read-alouds to engage all learners. Whether it's small group work tailored by proficiency or scaffolded writing routines, this method reduces teacher workload while increasing student engagement. The result is a classroom where ELLs grow in both language skills and confidence.Listeners are encouraged to download the simplified can-do descriptors and explore the full range of read-alouds, scaffolds, and writing routines available inside the Equipping ELLs membership. Beth reminds educators that differentiation doesn't have to be exhausting—it can be simple, effective, and even enjoyable.If you're ready to support your ELLs with clarity and consistency, this episode will become your go-to guide for creating an inclusive and empowering classroom environment.LINKS AND RESOURCES:WIDA Can Do Descriptors Simplified!Sign Up for the FREE Webinar⁠⁠⁠Join the Equipping ELLs Membership Shop our TpT Store

If you’ve ever wrestled with how your personal faith connects with the pain and injustice in the world, this episode offers a path forward, not in politics or performance, but in deep spiritual formation. Alan sits down with transformation life coach and ministry leader Brenda Renderos for a tender, honest conversation at the intersection of soul care and justice, especially racial justice. Drawing from her years of experience walking with individuals toward greater wholeness, Brenda shares how a deeply rooted faith can lead to healing, redemptive engagement with our neighbors. Together, they explore: How inner transformation and outward justice are connected Why justice isn’t about guilt or shame but about love and presence What to do when justice work feels overwhelming or exhausting And how to take one Spirit-led step forward at a time This episode invites you to slow down, listen deeply, and consider how Christ might be forming you for justice that flows from the heart. Brenda’s Invitations to Dig Deeper: The prophets call out religious devotion that ignores justice (Isaiah 58, Amos 5). Jesus admonished the Pharisees for tithing religiously but neglecting 'justice, mercy, and faithfulness' (Matthew 23:23). Is my spiritual life making me more just? And is my work for justice making me more Christlike? What is shaping my view of justice? Am I looking at it through a cultural lens, a political lens, or a biblical lens? A great way to begin is by simply sitting with scripture. Read passages like Isaiah 1:17, Micah 6:8, or Luke 4:18-19, and ask: What does God say about justice? What does this reveal about his heart? What is his invitation for me in this season? What is one small way I can stay engaged this week, even if it feels slow? And trust that even the small things matter in God's bigger story. ______________________________________________________ Connect with Gem on Instagram and learn more on the Unhurried Living website and her new book, Hold That Thought: Sorting Through the Voices in Our Heads Learn about PACE: Certificate in Leadership and Soul Care Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
