Listen "2. Overcoming Overwhelm: Practical Strategies for Handling Stress"
Episode Synopsis
                            In this episode of The Overwhelm Cure, I'm diving deep into understanding what overwhelm truly is, the signs and symptoms, and how we can manage it when we recognize it. Drawing on insights from Brené Brown's 'Atlas of the Heart,' I explain the distinction between stress and overwhelm (there's a difference!) I highlight the value of pausing before responding, having generous assumptions about others, and practicing self-awareness to break the cycle of chronic stress. In this week's episode of The Overwhelm Cure, you'll hear about...   How stress can tip us into being overwhelmed   How a simple mindset change can help us stay calm and take control over our stress   Practical tips on pausing, reflecting before responding, and maintaining integrity in stressful situations   Managing your stress and ultimately improving your overall well-being   Plus, a personal story of my own overwhelm when I lost my wallet in Australia   Connect with me and sign up for my upcoming free webinar — learn more and sign up.
