Overwhelm- the unspoken epidemic

Welcome to the very first episode of The Overwhelm Edit!

In this episode, we’re diving into an unspoken epidemic affecting so many women: burnout, overwhelm, and the mental load that keeps us stuck in survival mode.

Drawing from my experiences as a GP and women's life coach, I unpack why so many of us are feeling stretched too thin, and how societal pressures, perfectionism, and a lack of support are impacting our well-being.

You’ll learn why overwhelm isn’t just a fleeting feeling but a sign that something needs to change—and how you can start reclaiming control, building self-compassion, and crafting a life that feels truly good for you. Together, we’ll uncover how to move from surviving to thriving.

Tune in, reflect, and join this movement toward living a more intentional, balanced life. Don’t forget to check the show notes for reflection questions to guide your journey. Let’s do this together!

Questions to take a pause with:

What would your life look like if you prioritised your well-being in 3 months, 6 months, or a year?

What patterns (perfectionism, people-pleasing, etc.) are holding you back?

How does overwhelm show up in your body, and what might it be trying to tell you?
