Podcasts about Overwhelmed

It is May 2025 and I am in a sling, recovering from rotator cuff repair surgery. This episode was recorded two days post-op, so my voice may be a little slurred at times as I tried to speak into a microphone while under the influence of strong pain medications!  Why didn't I record before surgery? Because I was in conference season, which is the same as saying that I was living in airplanes and sleeping in hotels. But I wanted to provide an episode that would share some lessons that I have learned and continue to learn every time I face a new challenge--medical or otherwise. Are you going through a medical challenge? This episode is for you. Are you going through some other challenge? This episode will still be helpful. Things may be tough now, but you've been through tough things before and experienced the blessing of God turning trials into blessings.  "Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit."

The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, backed by the U.S. and Israel, says the old UN-led system allowed Hamas to flourish. But humanitarian groups say the new system is incapable of alleviating the suffering of Gazans. Nick Schifrin discussed more with Ciarán Donnelly.

In this episode of The Intelligent Vocalist, John Henny speaks to those who feel too overwhelmed to sing, reminding us that singing can be a form of self-care rather than another pressure. He offers simple, low-stress strategies to gently reconnect with your voice—even when motivation is low. Singing doesn't have to be perfect; it just has to bring you back to the present moment.   Episode highlights: Overwhelm isn't laziness—it's a real mental load that can block your singing. Reframe practice as self-care, not performance. Start small—just showing up for 60 seconds is enough to begin.   To learn more about John Henny, his best-selling books, on-line courses, Voiceschool.com featuring his Teaching Team of Experts, Speaker Training and the Contemporary Voice Teacher Academy, visit: JohnHenny.com

Send us a textMost agency owners build a business around their skills—then hit a ceiling when those same skills become their greatest limitation. In this episode, I sit down with Drew Larison, founder of Five Door Media, to unpack the real shift that unlocked scale in his agency: moving from overwhelmed operator to visionary CEO. For leaders navigating growth, structure, and team development, this conversation cuts to the heart of what it truly means to lead at scale.Drew shares how implementing EOS wasn't just a process upgrade—it was a complete redefinition of leadership inside his agency. We explore the emotional friction of letting go, the identity shift that comes with the visionary seat, and the difference between running campaigns and building a company that multiplies impact through people. You'll hear how his Five Door Method clarified client results, why his agency now audits client sales calls to improve performance, and what it looks like to create a framework that empowers scale without sacrificing culture.This is a must-listen for agency founders who feel the weight of growth and know they need to shift from operator to architect.

Welcome back to Personal Mastery Training. In today's episode, we explore one of the most common challenges we all face—overwhelm. But rather than pushing through or ignoring it, this conversation is about honoring your time, respecting your limits, and realigning with what truly matters. Let's dive into how balance isn't found—it's built.

This week, we're revisiting a topic & conversion that I've been thinking about a lot lately. I had the opportunity to speak to the public at our local library about Executive Function skills for four different age groups, ranging from early elementary students to adults. In all four groups, we talked a lot about the importance of self-regulation and coping skills to get through challenging times. As we learned from Megan McClelland in the last episode, our ability to persist through challenges is hugely important, even as early as age four. This episode brings our attention specifically to our upper high school students, college students, and young adults. The challenges that teens and young adults face during those years bring all kinds of emotional and logistical hurdles, and having a set of reliable coping tools can make a huge difference in how successful and grounded young people feel during that time.To explore this further, I spoke with Dr. Jackie Wolfman, a therapist based in the Boston area. She teaches her clients coping strategies through DBT—or dialectical behavior therapy. If you're familiar with CBT, or cognitive behavior therapy, DBT is a related approach that also focuses on how our thoughts and behaviors interact. CBT helps people notice and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, while DBT adds tools specifically for managing intense emotions and building practical coping skills. The tools and strategies Jackie shares from DBT are for everyone, regardless of age or mental health needs, so I know that this episode will truly be useful to anyone. I even use these strategies myself!Thank you for listening!

Lisa is back with the final episode of the Little Lessons Series, wrapping up this heartfelt Q&A journey by answering your powerful questions including how to navigate moments when connection feels disrupted—whether by a child's shutdown, caregiver dynamics, or those uncomfortable "I don't know what to do" feelings that arise in the therapy process. In this episode, you'll hear: Tracy's question: “What do you do when a child goes into shutdown mode?” Lisa explains how to recognize the signs of a shutdown, why it happens from a nervous system perspective, and how to stay attuned while supporting a child's regulation and reconnection—without pushing or forcing engagement.

She shares strategies to shift the conversation from blame to curiosity and co-regulation. Tammy's question: “What do you do when you feel stuck and like you're not doing enough to help the child?” Lisa gets real about therapist self-doubt, exploring how these moments are often mirrors of the therapeutic process itself. She offers guidance on how to stay regulated, connected, and grounded in presence—even when the answers aren't immediately clear.

Today's guided meditation is all about creating space within your busy life to invest in yourself.Something powerful happens when we slow down, sit down and turn our attention inward.Like a snow globe being set down on a table, we allow our mind and body to settle and we can start to see more clearly what's going on inside.I hope you enjoy.PS: Introducing the…

You've probably heard the phrase: “It's always the nice ones.” And maybe, like me, you once thought that was a compliment. But it's not. That phrase haunted me during my years in healthcare, whispered between nurses and doctors when patients who “did everything right” still ended up with the worst outcomes. And now, after years of working with high-achieving women as a hypnotist, I understand exactly why that happens. In this episode, I'm getting real about the hidden cost of being the nice one—the self-sacrificer, the peacekeeper, the one who puts everyone else first. I walk you through how people-pleasing and emotional suppression don't just exhaust you mentally… they actually impact your nervous system, your hormones, your immune response, and your genetic expression. Here's what we're diving into: Why N.I.C.E. = Neglecting Inner Compass Every day—and how that pattern forms How childhood conditioning wires us to seek validation through self-abandonment What chronic low-level stress does to your immune system, cortisol, and long-term health The real reason women get stuck in “doing what's expected” even when it makes them miserable Why it's not selfish to choose your joy—it's necessary for vitality This is about more than mindset. Your body knows when you're out of alignment. And the longer you override your intuition in order to be good, pleasing, or acceptable, the more strain you place on your system. I share how hypnosis helps clients release these subconscious patterns—whether it's perfectionism, over-giving, guilt, or the fear that they're only lovable when they're useful. You'll hear how even identity-level beliefs, like “I'm responsible for everyone's happiness,” can finally be released when the subconscious feels safe enough to let go. It's not about becoming someone new—it's about becoming who you were before the world told you to be nice.

How does a parent stand back up when every corner of home echoes with grief?For EMT, educator, and loving mother Larissa Dagley, tragedy began at her teen son Cody's shooting incident—a moment that left Cody drowning in relentless nightmares and bullying for the remainder of his life. Overwhelmed by guilt and depression, Cody took his own life almost 2 years later, plunging Larissa into a darkness so crushing, she feared her heart would literally break. Yet in the midst of excruciating grief, Larissa trusted in a Savior who heals more than sins: He mends shattered souls and whispers hope into the loneliest nights.In this heart-wrenching episode of Latter-day Lights, Larissa recounts tender mercies, spiritual impressions, and Cody's messages from the afterlife that proved Christ never left her side. Her story offers hard-won lessons on suicide awareness, the power of compassionate words, and the healing reach of the Atonement.If you or a loved one is wrestling with depression or suicidal ideation, Larissa's witness reminds us that no grief is too deep, no mistake too final, and no family too wounded for the Savior's unfailing light. Tune in and learn how, even after the worst pain imaginable, Christ can guide us from storm-tossed anguish to a sunrise of lasting peace.*** Please SHARE Larissa's story and help us spread hope and light to others. ***To WATCH this episode, visit: https://youtu.be/7KzVWU4Oi80 -----Keep updated with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/latter.day.lights/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/latterdaylightsAlso, if you have a faith-promoting or inspiring story, or know someone who does, please let us know by going to https://www.latterdaylights.com and reaching out to us.#LDSPodcast #ChristianStories #latterdaylights

Welcome back to Build Your Bible Habit! Proverbs chapter 13 is a study of contrasts: "live like this, not like that." The practicality of these verses will sharpen and equip you to walk in greater wisdom. Here's an example: "Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors is hard." (Proverbs 13:15) When we know what is right, but we choose to do the wrong thing anyway, Proverbs 13:15 clearly warns us that our way will be "hard." It's not easy to live biblically, but the alternative is harder. We do get to choose. VISIT THE SHOP AT KEEP THE HEART! Apply: Living What We Learn--31-Day Devotional by Francie Taylor NEW!
