Podcasts about overwhelm

If you're routinely feeling overwhelmed, you can't skip this episode. In fact, you probably ought to share it with all your friends who relate to routine overwhelm? What if it's not so much that you're overwhelmed, but that you're being undisciplined, either with your focus, your time, your choices or your energy? I'm telling you - this is one to save and share because boy, does it change the game! 

Hi friend — welcome back to The Habit Within! I'm Camille Kinsler, and this week's episode is one I am truly living in real time. For the past two weeks, life hasn't just felt full — it's felt downright busy. The kind of busy where the things I say matter most to me slowly start sliding to the bottom of the purse… only to be rediscovered later with dried chocolate stuck to them.If you've been feeling stretched thin — where everything feels urgent, everything feels important, and somehow you feel like you're choosing nothing at all — this episode is for you.In this episode, I share:The honest look at what fell off my plate (hint: this podcast!)How I realized I was valuing things I didn't think I valued simply because I was choosing themA surprising list of the seven roles I'm holding at my kids' school — and what it taught me about invisible laborWhat happens when we confuse obligation with choiceThe exact questions I use to get back into alignment when everything feels urgentWhy your values aren't what you say they are — they're what your calendar revealsA gentle process for noticing where you're avoiding, overgiving, or outsourcing your powerThis is an episode about honesty — with yourself, your values, your season of life, and the priorities that truly matter. Not the ones you think you “should” care about… but the ones your heart actually wants to rise to the top.Big Takeaways:Everything you're doing is a choice — even the things that feel like obligations.Overwhelm often comes from valuing one thing in theory but choosing another in practice.You can reclaim your priorities by asking better questions, not by adding more discipline.Your values shift with your season — and that's okay.I'd love to hear from you: What's one thing you're choosing right now — without realizing it?

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Dr. Craig Mattson, professor of communication and author of Digital Overwhelm: A Mid-Career Guide to Coping at Work. Rather than encouraging digital detoxing or escaping technology, Craig offers a refreshing way to understand and navigate the pressures of modern work. He introduces the idea of digiwhelm, explains why so much of our stress comes from the communication modes we inhabit, and shows how leaders can respond with intention rather than overload. You will hear Craig describe why email can be more than information transfer, how mode switching differs from context switching, and why one-way communication sometimes matters more than dialogue. Craig also shares why signals like silence, gestures, and tone often communicate more than words. Before closing, he draws connections to life at home, offering ideas for families that feel overwhelmed by devices and demands. If you are looking for practical insights to reduce digital overwhelm, improve communication, and lead with greater clarity and calm, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "Instead of digital minimalism, I recommend something like digital flexibility." "Humans are essentially users and switchers of modes." "What is going to be the defining overwhelm of my life?" "You are always overwhelmed by something." "Flexibility is the wisdom that my book is urging." "Your words do things." "Think about the voice of the email." "A mode is an approach, it is a posture, it is a way of relating." "Is there a way in which this is actually good for me and actually good for other people?"

Ever feel like life is just one long loop of chores, errands, work, dinner, repeat?

In this episode, Paul Andrews dives deep into the topic of free guitar lessons, exploring whether learning guitar from platforms like YouTube is truly “good enough” for beginners. He discusses the pros and cons of free online resources, the hidden costs attached, and why structured lessons might be the key to real progress.Key Topics CoveredCommunity UpdateRecap of the first-ever Sip and Strum event featuring “Zombie” by The Cranberries. Although there were audio issues with the event recording, the tutorial has been completely updated on the Beginner Guitar Academy website, now featuring playthroughs, slowed-down practice speeds, and backing tracks.Announcement of an upcoming live Q&A session on November 24th (9 pm GMT, 4 pm EST, 1 pm PST). Options to join live or pre-submit questions.Shout-out to community member Martin Fluke for earning a distinction in the Trinity College London performance exam. Details on how other students can pursue the exam.Main Topic: Are Free Guitar Lessons Good Enough?Advantages of free lessons: no cost, instant access, and a huge variety of content for beginners.The drawbacks of free lessons:Lack of Structure: Free lessons are generally aimed at gaining views rather than student progress. Many YouTube teachers are not trained educators, and lesson plans often lack a clear, progressive roadmap.Overwhelm and Confusion: Contradictory teaching methods and opinions can leave beginners confused. Without a reliable system, learning can feel random and ineffective.Poor Progress Tracking: There's little to no feedback or accountability with free resources, making it hard for students to recognize and correct mistakes—which often stifles progress.Hidden Marketing: Free lessons may come with advertising and may be designed to funnel viewers into paid products or courses.The value of structured guitar learning:A clear roadmap that builds skills in logical orderAccountability, community, and teacher feedbackConsistent practice and supportFeedback is crucial for identifying and fixing mistakesUsing free lessons properly:Great as supplementary resources or for inspiration and quick fixes, but shouldn't be your main learning path.Analogy: Treat structured lessons as your “main course” and free lessons as “dessert” for fun extras after you've built your foundation.Practical AdviceNew guitarists are encouraged to seek structured learning for foundational skills, then use free online lessons to spark inspiration and supplement their journey.If you feel stuck or are “spinning your wheels” with random YouTube videos, consider joining a structured program like Beginner Guitar Academy.Call to ActionReady to see the difference a structured program can make?

He encourages listeners to balance their free online explorations with proper education for the best results.Next episode drops next Friday—make sure to tune in, keep practicing, and keep having fun with your guitar!

The holiday season is upon us. Managing stress in general is a challenge, but managing holiday stress elevates it all! As a busy mom I want to love this time of year. Really, I do.

Much like when organizing a home, we can break things down into manageable steps to make it happen. Sometimes thinking a little differently about our never ending list allows us to do something different with it.

In this episode, Coach Alex sits down with author, speaker, and podcast host Michelle Brumgard to explore what she calls The Pace of Peace.Michelle shares how years of praying for calm—in her body, her marriage, and her home—revealed that true peace isn't found in quick fixes, quiet moments, or the absence of chaos, but in Christ Himself, the Prince of Peace.Through vulnerable stories of motherhood, marriage struggles, overwhelm, and the practical demands of daily life, Michelle helps us understand how to pause, pray, and invite Jesus into the middle of our messy days.Together, Alex and Michelle unpack how peace intersects with our health, fitness, and homes—and why striving for control only leads to more overwhelm.

If you're a small business owner, you are probably experiencing some degree of overwhelm in your business or personal life. Probably both. Because when you're a small business owner, business and personal overlap and intertwine. A lot.  Overwhelm can become a major obstacle to success. It can affect your business growth and your personal growth. Personal overwhelm affects your business and business overwhelm affects your personal life. How many times have you been impatient or snippy or overreacted to something because of stress in another part of your life?  So many business owners operate in a constant state of overwhelm. But it doesn't have to be that way. In this episode, I'm walking you through five things you can do to help reduce your overwhelm so you can thrive instead of just surviving.  1. Time Management - There will never be enough hours in the day to get everything done. How we manage our time is crucial to reducing overwhelm. Get more done by:  Identifying high-priority tasks. Time blocking those tasks. Removing distractions. Using a timer to stay focused.  2. Hiring, Outsourcing, Delegating - you can't keep doing business alone. This means knowing when it's time to:  Hire Outsource Delegate 3. Setting Realistic Goals and Timelines - entrepreneurs are guilty of always thinking we can get more done in a set amount of time than we actually can.  Be honest with yourself.  Plan only ONE big rock per quarter. (detailed in my Strategic Yearly Planning Workshop - linked below) 4. Getting Support - feeling supported makes a huge difference to the amount of overwhelm you feel.  How can your team support you?  How can your spouse support you?  How can your children support you?  How can your friends and family support you?  Seek out other support - housekeeper, grocery deliveries, etc.  5. Self-care - you need to take time for yourself. Don't feel guilty about it.  Plan self-care time - put it on your calendar.  Make time to spend with friends and family.  Start with one of these items and build it into your routine. Then layer in another. And another. Stop operating in fight or flight mode. Your health and the health of your business depend on it!  Join me for this episode and learn five things you can do to tackle overwhelm in your subscription box business.

Digital Overwhelm: Talking Across GenerationsIn a world that never stops pinging, how do we stay human—and stay connected across generations?Host David Beckemeyer talks with communication scholar Craig Mattson, author of Digital Overwhelm, about what happens when Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z all try to navigate the same flood of digital noise.From “data vs story” to “sender vs listener,” this conversation explores why we're all drowning in information, why younger workers seem more pragmatic than passionate, and how switching our modes of communication can build real understanding.Text me your feedback and leave your contact info if you'd like a reply (this is a one-way text).

I'd love to hear from you 'text the show'WelcomeHello listeners, welcome back to the Treat Your Business Podcast. I am super excited you are here because today we are talking about something that can completely change how your clinic runs and how you feel about running it. If you have ever said things like “it is just quicker if I do it myself” or “I cannot find anybody who does it like me” or “I have tried and they do not get it right so I have taken the job back” then this episode is for you. I am joined by our COO in Thrive, Nichola, and we are diving into how to get the best out of your practice manager or business manager without micromanaging them.Episode SummaryIn this episode, Nichola and I unpack what a great practice manager actually does and how that role should sit alongside you as the CEO. We talk about the difference between a practice manager and an administrator, what you should never delegate as the owner and what you absolutely must let go of. We explore why so many clinic owners become the bottleneck, constantly firefighting and feeling exhausted, and how unclear roles and poor communication turn your practice manager into a reactive doer instead of a strategic partner. We also talk honestly about trust, identity, perfectionism and control, and why you have to be willing to hire people who are better than you in their area if you want the clinic and your life to grow.Key TakeawaysYour job as CEO is vision, leadership, culture and big financial decisions, not doing all the thingsA strong practice manager owns day to day operations, systems, team communication, tech and dataIf every decision has to go through you, you have already waited too long to hire for this roleTrust, clear outcomes, a weekly meeting rhythm and simple KPIs stop micromanagement for both of youResources & LinksToday's episode is sponsored by Jane, clinic management software and EMR.

Discover how trauma lives in the body—and how the vagus nerve, nervous system shutdown, and somatic healing explain why stillness can feel unsafe. Through the Biology of Trauma® lens, Dr. Aimie shares the trauma response sequence and the Essential Sequence needed to heal stored trauma without overwhelm. If we've ever felt like we can't stop moving—like sitting still feels unsafe—this episode helps us understand why. I share Jess's story, a 45-year-old marketing director whose chronic busyness protected her from an 8-year-old's stored terror. When her 17-year-old daughter said, "Mom, we never really got to be together," Jess knew something had to change. We'll explore how nervous system dysregulation shows up as high-functioning exhaustion, emotional disconnection, and perfectionism. We'll see how trauma becomes biology—and why our body holds on until it feels safe enough to let go.   In this episode you'll learn: [00:00] Why a "good childhood" doesn't guarantee a nervous system free of trauma [02:15] How Jess's busyness, weight gain, and exhaustion were signs of stored trauma [06:40] Why stillness feels unsafe when the body equates pausing with overwhelm [09:10] Thinking vs feeling: how living in your head blocks somatic trauma healing [12:45] The real definition of trauma: overwhelm inside the body, not just events [16:05] Startle → stress → freeze → shutdown: the trauma response sequence in the nervous system [18:40] How the vagus nerve turns overwhelm into a whole-body shutdown response [21:20] Overwhelm as biology: fatigue, gut issues, emotional eating, and chronic anxiety [24:05] Why somatic work can retraumatize you if you don't feel safe first [26:30] The essential safety sequence: safety → support → growth into calm aliveness [28:15] How Jess used the Foundational Journey to break the cycle with her daughter   Main Takeaways: Trauma Happens Inside the Body: Trauma isn't defined by events—it's what happens inside of us when overwhelm outpaces our capacity to cope. Overwhelm Is Trauma Biology: When the size of the problems we face feels bigger than our resources, our nervous system shifts from stress into trauma—leading to freeze, shutdown, and hopelessness. Chronic Busyness and Perfectionism Can Be Functional Freeze: What looks like overachieving may actually be a protective response. Our body may be using busyness to avoid stored pain. The Vagus Nerve Makes Trauma Physical: It carries the signal of shutdown throughout our system—leading to fatigue, gut issues, disconnection, and a loss of aliveness. We Must Follow the Same Path Out That We Took In: Skipping straight to calm never works. True healing follows this path: Safety → Support → Expansion. Healing Breaks Generational Patterns: Jess's journey shows what becomes possible when we regulate our nervous system and choose presence over protection.   Notable Quotes: "Trauma isn't what happened to us—it's what happened inside of us". "Busyness kept me safe. It kept me from drowning in emotions I couldn't process". "We have to follow the same path that our body took." "Our body holds its truth. Our mind tells us what it wants us to hear." "Safety first, then Support, then Expansion. You cannot skip the sequence." "Our body needs safety to come out of shutdown. Until we create that, it will stay closed."   Episode Takeaway: Trauma isn't about what happened—it's about what overwhelmed our nervous system and pushed it into survival mode. Chronic busyness, perfectionism, and emotional disconnection are often signs our body is still trying to protect us. But when we follow the Essential Sequence—Safety, then Support, then Expansion—we can safely access and resolve what our body has been holding. Healing becomes possible when our body finally knows it's safe to feel, to rest, and to be present.   Resources/Guides: Take the Attachment Pain Quiz: Discover your attachment patterns and how they show up in your nervous system Attachment Trauma Healing Roadmap: Get your personalized roadmap for healing attachment wounds Foundational Journey - If you are ready to create your inner safety and shift your nervous system, join me and my team for this 6 week journey of practical somatic and mind-body inner child practices.

I feel honoured to share this third conversation with Jannine Gearon who I interviewed before in May and June this year. Jannine lives with cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer) - a rare and aggressive cancer with very confronting statistics. In our previous two episodes, she bravely shared her journey, including her decision to explore voluntary assisted dying (VAD) as a way of reclaiming a sense of choice amidst pain and uncertainty. Today, there's a plot twist. A newly available targeted drug, found by her sister at what felt like the literal 11th hour, has begun changing the trajectory of her disease. Her latest scan and bloods show things are not progressing as expected - in the best possible way. As Jannine says, “the cancer is not behaving as it should,” and her oncologist is now cautiously optimistic. May this episode entangle in the quantum field with the exact people who are meant to hear it, and create beautiful ripples in your life and the lives of those you love.

Send us a textThis week on the Less Stressed Life, Dr. David Hanscom joins me for his 4th appearance to explain why anxiety isn't psychological—it's physiological—a survival response that we can learn to regulate, not control. We talk about how unprocessed emotions and repetitive thoughts get stored in the body as pain and how tools like expressive writing, calming the body, and softening the ego help break those loops.You'll walk away with a new way to think about anxiety, pain, and healing—one that focuses on awareness, compassion, and creating safety in your body so your mind can follow. It's about rewiring your nervous system, not forcing it.Dr. Hanscom's past episodes: • Ep 71: Roadmap out of Anxiety and Chronic Pain • Ep 72: Anger & Anxiety in the Family • Ep 325: Overwhelm & PainKEY TAKEAWAYS: • Anxiety and anger are body states, not character flaws • Calm the physiology first; thoughts will follow • Expressive writing helps separate from looping thoughts • Awareness and compassion are core to lasting changeFree resource: Try Dr. Hanscom's Expressive Writing Exercise (PDF), a foundational tool from The DOC Journey to help calm the nervous system and release looping thoughts. ABOUT GUEST:David Hanscom, MD is a former complex spine surgeon who left his 32-year Seattle practice to help people heal from chronic physical and emotional pain. After overcoming his own 15-year struggle with anxiety and pain, he developed the Dynamic Healing approach, which focuses on calming the body's threat physiology and rewiring the nervous system for lasting relief.He's the author of Back in Control: A Surgeon's Roadmap Out of Chronic Pain and the upcoming Calm Your Body, Heal Your Mind: Transcend Pain, Anxiety, Anger, and Repetitive Unwanted Thoughts (June 2026).WHERE TO GUEST:Websites: https://backincontrol.com/ and https://thedocjourney.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drdavidhanscom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drdavidhanscomYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/DrDavidHanscomWHERE TO FIND CHRISTA:Website: https://www.christabiegler.com/Instagram: @anti.inflammatory.nutritionistPodcast Instagram: @lessstressedlifeYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lessstressedlifeLeave a review, submit a questions for the podcast or take one of my quizzes here: ****https://www.christabiegler.com/linksSPONSOR:Thank you to our friends at Jigsaw Health for being such an incredible sponsor and partner.
