In this episode, I sit down with Rebecca Olson, international life coach and host of the Ambitious and Balanced Working Mom podcast, to talk all about overwhelm. We dive into experiences of ambitious women and working moms who are juggling careers, families, and their own dreams, and how that often leads to chronic overwhelm. Rebecca shares her own journey through a motherhood identity crisis, and how that experience inspired her to help other women find clarity, confidence, and calm.

We break down the “overwhelm equation,” discuss why overwhelm is more than just a busy schedule, and explore the emotional and mindset shifts that can help us move from chaos to clarity. Rebecca walks us through practical tools and daily practices that can help us recognize overwhelm before it takes over.

We also talk about the connection between overwhelm, urgency, and people-pleasing, and why learning to process our emotions is the key to breaking the cycle. If you’ve ever felt like you have to choose between your ambition and your well-being, this conversation is for you.
