Podcasts about overwhelm

Exhaustion. Fatigue. Lack of Motivation. Apathy. Overwhelm. How do you know if you're burnt out – or if you're just dealing with hormones? Because we know that sometimes the two can feel like the same thing! Today I'm joined by Gina, who is calling in to process whether she's burnt out from a demanding career in full time ministry over many years without a break, or because she's in the middle of menopause? Which one is it, and how do you know the difference? And then – what do you do about it? We process how to differentiate between the two, as well as some of the overlaps between the two – and then we end with some practical advice, suggestions, and next steps for her as she commits to getting her body back to baseline and learning to care for her soul. Listen to this entire episode, and share with someone you know who might be in the thick of it right now! And then pick up a copy of the life-changing message of Soul Care and learn what it means to bring your body back to baseline and care for your soul!

Turn off the noise of the world for the final time this week, claim your absolute crown, and drop into deep, cellular immortality. In This Episode, You'll Discover: The Unshaken Marketplace: What Yogananda learned from Sri Yukteswar about maintaining a permanent state of inner sovereignty while managing complex worldly realities.

A Message for Your Heart "My dear friend, we have walked a magnificent path together over these last seven days. I have watched you intentionally pause in the middle of your massive vision, put down the heavy tools of your daily schedule, and fiercely protect your inner sanctuary. You have shown up for your nervous system with so much grace and dedication. As we close this series tonight, I want you to remember that the deep well of stillness you cultivated this week does not belong to the cushion—it belongs to you. You are not a fragile boat being tossed around by the velocity of your life; you are the unshakeable ocean itself. You are fully capable, deeply resilient, and entirely sovereign over your space. Carry this diamond shield into your tomorrow, but tonight, let yourself be completely held by the baseline of peace you have so beautifully earned. I am so incredibly proud of you. Sleep deeply."

She explains why multitasking is really task-switching, how it drains productivity, and why prioritizing just one to three key tasks each day can create massive momentum.The conversation also dives into accountability, group coaching, faith and productivity, email lists, direct mail, and why focus is about more than money—it is about building a better business, better relationships, and a better life.In This Episode, You'll LearnWhy multitasking is actually task-switchingHow task-switching hurts focus and productivityWhy entrepreneurs often procrastinate until deadlines create urgencyHow to prioritize the most important tasks each dayWhy busy does not always mean productiveHow group accountability helps people follow throughWhy email lists are still one of the most valuable business assetsHow focus creates real wealth beyond just moneyHighlights & Timestamps[00:00] The cost of switching tasks Cindy explains how task-switching can cost your brain 15 to 20 minutes every time you change focus.[01:00] Meet Cindy Baker Cindy introduces herself as a productivity coach helping entrepreneurs manage time, energy, and focus.[02:00] ADHD, entrepreneurs, and busy brains Rodric and Cindy discuss why so many entrepreneurs struggle with distraction, procrastination, and shiny object syndrome.[03:00] Now vs. not now Cindy explains how many people with busy brains tend to think in only two time frames, which creates urgency-based productivity.[04:00] Multitasking is not efficient She breaks down why multitasking is really switch-tasking and why it makes it harder to complete meaningful work.[05:00] Pick one to three priorities Cindy shares her simple method: write down one to three important tasks the night before and start there.[06:00] Busy vs. productive Rodric and Cindy talk about entrepreneurs doing low-value tasks while avoiding the work that actually moves the business forward.[07:00] The power of group accountability Cindy explains how group coaching helps people see blind spots and stay accountable to weekly goals.[08:00] Who Cindy works with Cindy shares that she works mostly with small business owners, solopreneurs, professionals, and people with busy brains.[09:00] Faith and productivity Cindy talks about her Substack and how she writes about the intersection between faith and productivity.[10:00] Where to find Cindy Cindy shares her website, Instagram, and free course for beating procrastination.[11:00] Starting over with an email list Cindy answers Christian Espinosa's question and explains why she would rebuild with an email list first.[12:00] Why email and direct mail still work Rodric and Cindy discuss why owned audiences matter and why direct mail is working better than ever.[13:00] Focus to Fortune Cindy shares her book, Focus to Fortune, and the bigger meaning of fortune beyond money.Notable Quotes“Neuroscience studies have shown that it takes about 15 to 20 minutes for your brain to go back to what it was focused on every time you switch tasks.” – Cindy Baker “You're not really multitasking, you're switch-tasking.” – Cindy Baker “If everything on your list looks equally important, then nothing gets done.” – Cindy Baker “Busy does not always mean productive.” – Cindy Baker “Write down one to three important things that need to be accomplished the next day.” – Cindy Baker “You own your email list.” – Cindy BakerConnect with Cindy Baker

Do you often feel like you're running on pure adrenaline, battling chronic overwhelm, or trying to manage a demanding schedule with an empty battery? If so, you're definitely NOT alone! This series is your ultimate biological and energetic reset. Today, our developmental arc is Release.

In This Episode, You'll Discover: The Fourth Limb of Yoga: How Patanjali's Yoga Sutras position pranayama as the bridge between physical stability and mental clarity. The Lineage of Energy Mastery: The teachings of Babaji and Paramahansa Yogananda on how to reverse the outward flow of energy and recharge your internal battery. The 4-4-8 Pranic Release: A step-by-step guided somatic practice to instantly clear stagnant tension, lower cortisol, and claim your inner sovereignty. A Daily Message for Your Heart Dear Friend, It is incredibly easy to let your life force bleed outward into a dozen different directions just to keep up with the day. Today, I want to remind you that your system was never designed to operate in a constant emergency state. You do not have to finish everything on your plate to deserve a moment of absolute, sovereign stillness. By intentionally slowing your breath and turning your energy inward today, you are performing an act of supreme self-care. You are telling your body: 'I have you. We are safe here.' Trust this single stream of prana. You are doing an extraordinary job."

Hello, Beautiful...I'm so grateful you're here with me. Lately, it might feel like life has been asking a lot from you… and before you know it, the days blur together and your mind never really gets a chance to rest. So this meditation is your moment to pause, breathe, and step out of the rush for a little while. This guided meditation for overwhelm and stress relief helps calm anxiety, quiet overthinking, regulate the nervous system, and bring you back to a grounded sense of peace and balance. Love,

Overwhelmed to Organized: simplyconvivial.com/overwhelmFeeling overwhelmed by your mental to-do list? Like you have 47 browser tabs open in your brain at all times? In this video, I share the simple paper productivity system that finally tamed my mom overwhelm — no app, no elaborate planner, no perfectionism required.If you're an overwhelmed mom trying to manage your home, your kids, and your life all inside your head, this is for you. I'll walk you through why keeping your to-do list in your head is creating anxiety (not productivity), and how writing things down — specifically on a daily index card — transforms vague overwhelm into clear, actionable next steps.This isn't about finding the "perfect" planner or a complicated project management system. It's about a small, repeatable, disposable daily planning habit that cuts through perfectionism and helps you choose the next right thing — the next faithful step — for today.✨ What you'll learn:• Why your brain isn't designed to be your family's command center• How writing things down reduces the mental load of invisible work• The daily card system: simple, visible, limited to one day• How to stop the swirl of anxious thoughts and make moment-to-moment decisions with confidence• Why small, consistent systems beat elaborate planning every time

In this episode I am exploring something many of us are experiencing - overwhelm.Not the dramatic, falling-apart kind of overwhelm, but the quieter version that creeps into everyday life. The busy mind that won't switch off. The feeling of being permanently "on". The exhaustion, overthinking, irritability and sense that you're carrying more than you can comfortably hold.As life becomes increasingly fast-paced, connected and demanding, many of us have unknowingly begun to live in a state of nervous system dysregulation. Over time, feeling overwhelmed can become so familiar that we stop noticing it altogether.In this episode I am exploring why this happens, what your nervous system may be trying to tell you, and how small moments of regulation can help you find your way back to calm, clarity and yourself.I also guide you through a couple of simple nervous system resets that you can use whenever life feels like it's becoming too much.Please click this link to find out more about the The Nervous System First Aid Kit A collection of 14 rapid nervous system resets designed to help you navigate anxiety, overwhelm, overthinking, self-criticism, poor sleep and moments of emotional dysregulation.The kit also includes a practical Nervous System First Aid Handbook and a bonus Vagus Nerve Meditation.If you enjoyed this episode, please consider following, rating or reviewing the podcast.

#383: Ever feel like the roles in your life - partner, parent, friend, employee - are colliding in ways that leave you exhausted and unsure of who you are supposed to be? In this episode, I'm unpacking the subtle and pervasive experience of role confusion and how it can sneak into your life without you even realizing it. We explore how taking on others' expectations, trying to manage everyone's emotions, and overextending yourself creates a constant state of overwhelm. This isn't just about being busy. It's a misalignment between what your nervous system is actually capable of handling and the roles you feel you must perform.

Have you ever completely fallen apart over something small… only to realize later it wasn't really about that thing at all?Sometimes emotional overwhelm isn't caused by one moment. Sometimes it's weeks of stress, fear, shame, exhaustion, criticism, bad luck, and pressure piling up until one final thing breaks the dam.In this minisode from The BPD Bunch, a side conversation turns into an honest discussion about emotional overwhelm, crying in public, shame, recovery, and what happens when emotions finally catch up with you.The cast shares stories about breaking down at work, crying in front of authority figures, feeling embarrassed by emotional reactions, surviving impossible weeks, and learning that sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is stop fighting your emotions and let yourself feel them.What starts as a tangent becomes one of the most honest conversations from the recording session.We talk about:* BPD and emotional overwhelm* Shame after emotional reactions* Crying in public* Emotional sensitivity* Fear of criticism* Recovery from BPD* Emotional regulation* BPD and workplace stressIf you've ever felt embarrassed by your emotions, judged yourself for having a hard day, or wondered why one small thing suddenly pushed you over the edge, you're not alone.For the next few weeks, we're taking a short break from our AMPD deep dive and answering some of your questions instead. Don't worry though, we'll be back on June 24 to pick up where we left off.⸻

Do you ever feel like you have a thousand things to do, but somehow you get nothing done, not because you're lazy or disorganized, but because your body simply won't move forward?In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson makes the case that overwhelm isn't a time management problem. It's an energy problem, and underneath that, it's a nervous system problem. Drawing on twenty-seven years as a speech-language pathologist working with clients who had traumatic brain injuries, Leah shares the clinical tools she once used in rehabilitation and explains why they're surprisingly relevant for all of us, especially in midlife when our capacity to absorb demands begins to shift.You'll learn the four Ps of energy conservation (plan, prioritize, pace, and position) along with the Pacing Points Program, a daily energy budget that helps prevent the crash before your day is done. Leah connects each of these strategies back to your nervous system states, showing why pushing through overwhelm only makes it harder to find your way back to safety and regulation. This is part one of a two-part conversation, so consider it your invitation to start noticing your real energy patterns this week.We'll explore:Overwhelm is a nervous system signal, not a scheduling failure.The four Ps of energy conservation: plan, prioritize, pace, and position.Why pacing and rest breaks matter, even when you don't think you need them.How the Pacing Points Program works like a daily energy budget.The three nervous system states: Team Resilient, Team Hyper, and Team Hypo.Why midlife changes your capacity, and what your body is really asking for.LINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYMIDLIFE NERVOUS SYSTEM REWIRE COMMUNITY

How to stop procrastinating starts with knowing that procrastination isn't a character flaw. It's a signal pointing toward misalignment, fear, or lack of support. It's hard to find or sustain solutions when you're beating yourself up.

In this episode, Alex Olshonsky explores why you're addicted to thinking, nd what to do instead. Drawing from his journey through addiction, recovery, meditation, and somatic psychology, Alex argues that overthinking is often a way of avoiding difficult emotions. He explains why compulsive thought can function like an addiction, how attention gets hijacked by rumination and distraction, and what it takes to reconnect with the present moment. Along the way, Eric and Alex discuss recovery, spiritual practice, the role of the body in healing, and practical ways to find more freedom from the endless loop of thoughts.

  If life keeps speeding up and the demands keep stacking up (kids, parents, work, your own busy brain) then this one's for you. In this episode I interview speaker, writer and self-development expert Lily Silverton about her book Prioritize This: A Practical Guide for Thriving in a World That Won't Slow Down. We dig into three chapters that land hardest for the midlife squeezed middle: stress, overwhelm, and procrastination and some practical, brain-based tools for each. Lily is candid about her own experiences navigating the combination of a seriously ill father and young children, and why she has no time for self-help advice written for people with no heed for the demands of real life. We discuss: The two most robust, evidence-backed interventions — movement and social connection. Building your own bespoke stress toolkit (the "pick and mix", not the prescriptive programme) SITs and SATs: stress-inducing vs stress-alleviating thoughts, and turning the dial down on catastrophising The multitasking myth — why it's really task switching, and what each switch costs you Three questions to cut through overwhelm Procrastination as emotional management, not time management - aka "what feeling am I avoiding?" AI, the hamster wheel, and whether technology will actually save us time...

In this episode, Olivia Hill addresses the feelings of overwhelm that many individuals experience regarding their health and well-being. She emphasizes that these feelings are not a reflection of laziness or lack of discipline, but rather a result of a full nervous system due to various life demands. Olivia provides practical steps to help listeners navigate their overwhelm, including starting with small, manageable changes, separating urgent from important tasks, and seeking support from others. She encourages self-compassion and reminds listeners that they do not need to have everything figured out before taking the first step towards better health.

Ready to begin your journey of healing? It's time to reclaim your life with elite and discreet premium psychotherapy with Dr. Gregory T. Obert;

Today on the Casual Cattle Conversations Podcast, Shaye interviews Jasper Oeltjen of Heritage and Horizons about why ranchers feel overwhelmed financially, mentally, and operationally, and how those areas intertwine. Jasper shares her background in education, IT strategy, and a 14-year cow-calf operation, describing how constant hustling led to plateauing and reactive decision-making that created domino effects in nutrition, calving, labor, medications, margins, and relationships.   They discuss how unavoidable hard seasons are easier to navigate with a foundation of goals, clear expectations, and defined roles. Jasper outlines a four-phase “road trip” framework: set shared long-term goals, map the route with shorter targets, define day-to-day tactics and metrics aligned to goals, and proactively anticipate issues (like aging cows or replacement needs) to avoid “construction.” She also explains helping producers clarify goals via conversation and four focus categories: optimize, innovate, maintain, or grow.  Learn more about Noble here: https://bit.ly/3DD7uG0     Catch more conversations like this one and learn more at https://www.casualcattleconversations.com/     00:59 Meet Jasper Oeltjen  02:32 From Hustle to Strategy  04:06 Reactive Decisions Dominoes  07:10 Financial and Operational Strain  10:23 Relationships and Tough Seasons  12:48 Root Causes Goals and Roles  17:34 Four Phase Planning Framework  20:56 Finding Your Real Goals  26:06 Keep It Simple and Take Action  29:10 Rancher Mind Series Invite   

Most attorneys don't lack ambition. They're drowning in small, unresolved issues that quietly drain their energy, focus, and peace of mind. The overflowing inbox. The postponed difficult conversation. The underperforming team member. The health goals that never happen. Individually they seem minor, but together they create constant overwhelm. In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Steve Riley talks with Mark Powers, founder of Atticus, about a powerful yet simple solution: eliminating your "tolerations." Discover why overwhelm comes less from having too much to do and more from tolerating things below your standards, and learn practical ways to remove hidden drains so you can regain clarity, energy, and control. If you're a driven attorney who feels stuck or overwhelmed despite working hard, this episode shows you how removing what's draining you is often the fastest path to a great practice and a great life. ___________ In this episode, you will hear: A clear way to identify the hidden tolerations draining your practice and personal life Why naming a problem is often the most powerful first step Practical strategies to eliminate what's weighing you down The powerful connection between raising your standards and increasing your success When to eliminate, delegate, or consciously accept a toleration ___________ Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

Highly sensitive nervous systems take in far more than a fair share, and overwhelm slowly becomes a groove we practice until it feels like who we are. I keep coming back to one idea: overwhelm is an invitation, and every invitation can be declined. The moment we stop treating ourselves as overwhelm's victim, simple affirmations can reprogram those old patterns and return us to the peace that is our birthright.

Why are so many capable, high-performing people feeling overwhelmed, distracted, and depleted? In Episode 259 of The Mindset Game® podcast, Vered Kogan speaks with Liane Davey, CEO advisor, keynote speaker, and New York Times bestselling author, about why workload alone doesn't explain today's epidemic of overwhelm. Drawing on her latest research, Liane introduces the concept of "thoughtload" and explains how rising cognitive demands, emotional strain, and depleted energy reserves are affecting performance, decision-making, and well-being both at work and at home. In this conversation, you'll learn: Why thoughtload—not workload—is often the real source of overwhelm How distracted attention, unprocessed emotions, and depleted energy undermine performance Why effectiveness matters more than productivity in today's knowledge economy How creating space for reflection can improve focus, insight, and decision-making To learn more about Liane's work, visit ThoughtLoad.com or connect with her on LinkedIn.

Flourish Talk by Fr. Ryan Mann

Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme, "Under Pressure." Today we explored how pressure exposes what we really believe, and focused on Mark 4:35–41. Dr. Deb Gorton joined us to talk about how pressure can reveal the thoughts, beliefs, and burdens we need to sift through, explaining how biblical self-stewardship, wise community, and time with God help keep pressure from becoming burnout. Dr. Gorton is the Founder and CEO of Siv Counseling and Consultation. She also serves as Director of Community Care at Soul City Church in Chicago. Then we had Dr. Hormoz Shariat join us to share the urgent needs of believers in Iran, where Christians are facing fear, persecution, and practical hardship while continuing to stand strong for Christ. Dr. Shariat is the Founder and President of Iran Alive Ministries. Daniel Henderson also joined us to talk about spiritual warfare, explaining how opposition often arises when believers are serious about the gospel and why pastors and leaders must stay focused on prayer, the Word, and reliance on God rather than self-reliance. Daniel is the Founder and President of Strategic Renewal International, which coaches pastors. He is also the Global Director of The 6:4 Fellowship.

We've been asking our kids the wrong question since kindergarten. "What do you want to be when you grow up?" confuses identity with performance, and Josh argues we've been setting them up for anxiety and false selves ever since.This episode reframes the whole parenting mission around the theme of Jesus's central message: the Kingdom of God. When kids understand their personal role in building for the kingdom of God, their identity stops depending on what they do, what they have, or what anyone thinks of them. It's a parenting paradigm shift that gives our kids a purpose bigger than anything the world has to offer.We also announce the launch of a brand new parenting platform for raising emotionally healthy and spiritually mature kids called Raising Future Legends.*Once again, thank you to Bernhardt Watches for sponsoring this episode.

Summer is supposed to feel lighter… but for many ADHD brains, it often brings unexpected overwhelm. If your mental tabs are overflowing and you're already spinning in indecision about plans, commitments, and scheduling, this episode is your permission slip to do summer differently. Tune into Episode 358 and discover: Why summer creates unexpected cognitive overload for ADHD brains The four-container method that gets everything out of your head and into a clear, calm action plan. You can finally stop carrying it all alone. A non-negotiable ADHD scheduling support, and exactly how to protect it on your calendar A Decision making approach that breaks through the decision spin cycle Real scripts for saying no so you can save your energy for your full-body-yes moments

Summer is supposed to be the season of slowing down, but for many of us it can feel just as busy, if not busier, than the rest of the year. Between vacations, kids' activities, changing routines, and the pressure to make the most of every day, it's easy to feel stretched thin and fall behind on the things that matter most. In this episode, we talk about how to embrace everything summer has to offer without letting your business, goals, or sense of balance slip away. We discuss the guilt that can come with trying to create the "perfect" summer, why simplifying your priorities is more important than ever, and how small, consistent actions can help you stay on track even when life gets hectic. If you've been feeling pulled in a dozen different directions, this conversation is a reminder that you don't have to choose between enjoying your summer and making progress. We're sharing practical ways to create more ease, protect what matters most, and move through the season with intention instead of overwhelm. Let's dive in!

A lot of us are tired in a way that sleep doesn't fix. We're doing the things — the work, the list, the showing up — and still, something is pulling at us. A low hum of unfinished. For years, Robin Quinn Keehn thought that hum was a personal failing: not disciplined enough, not organized enough. It wasn't any of that. It was Open Loops. This is the backbone episode of the show — the one to send anyone who's new. Robin defines an Open Loop plainly (a commitment, promise, or agreement that's unfinished, incomplete, or outdated, quietly draining your time, energy, and peace), then walks through the three kinds almost all of us carry: Relational Loops with other people, Self-Loops — the promises we break to ourselves — and Unspoken Brokens, the things that needed to be said and never were. You'll hear why loops stay open (it's avoidance, not discipline), what they actually cost — especially what broken self-promises do to your confidence — and the three ways to close any loop: end it, evolve it, or recommit to it, on purpose. This is also where Robin introduces the free 5-Day Detox Your To-Do List Challenge, starting June 29.

Regulatory volatility, scientific‑grade context requirements, and entrenched legacy processes are creating a level of operational complexity in pharma that makes even high‑value AI initiatives difficult to move from concept to production. In this episode, Art Shectman, CEO at Elephant Ventures, examines with host Marilie Fouché how leaders can cut through that complexity by isolating a single, clearly defined workflow slice and rebuilding it for near‑term, dependable deployment rather than long‑range architectural perfection. The discussion highlights how removing outdated process assumptions, selecting an atomic workflow with organizational alignment, and aiming for a contained operational win enable pharma teams to build momentum and scale AI responsibly in highly regulated environments. Learn how consultants are winning business with evidence-based AI ROI and building long-term capabilities instead of chasing short-term gains.
