Our Opinions About… Doing Too Much

In this episode of Girls With Opinions, we’re calling ourselves (and probably you) out: why are we all doing so much… all the time?

From overcommitting to overthinking to trying to be everything for everyone, we’re unpacking what it really looks like to be in a constant state of doing too much. And more importantly — why it feels so hard to stop.

We talk about the pressure to be productive, the identity tied to being “busy,” and how doing more can start to feel like the only way to feel enough. We also get into how this shows up in everyday life — saying yes when you want to say no, filling every free moment, and struggling to just be without feeling guilty.

This episode is part reality check, part vent session, and part permission slip to slow down without feeling like you’re falling behind.

💬 In this episode:

• What “doing too much” actually looks like in real life
• Why being busy can feel validating
• The pressure to keep up, show up, and do it all
• How overcommitting turns into overwhelm
• The subtle ways we make life harder than it needs to be

✨ You’ll walk away with:

• A little self-awareness (and maybe a little call-out 😅)
• Permission to do less without guilt
• A reminder that your worth isn’t tied to your productivity
• Encouragement to create more space in your life
