Description

This episode is for the woman who feels like she’s barely holding it together…
The one who’s trying to stay “on plan” while juggling grief, burnout, chaos, parenting, SEN stress or just life feeling too loud.

If you’ve ever found yourself saying:

👉🏻 “I’ve let it all slip again…”👉🏻 “I just can’t get my head back in the game.”👉🏻 “I want to do better, but I’m exhausted.”

Then please stop what you’re doing and give this episode your next few minutes.

  • What happens when life gets too heavy and you still feel like you’re supposed to stay on track

  • Why emotional overwhelm isn’t a lack of willpower it’s a nervous system trying to survive

  • And how to shift from shame into supportive strategy when things feel like too much

I’ll share a client story that’ll feel so familiar if you’ve ever been in that place of “I just don’t care anymore,” plus my own experiences of trying to stay focused while managing the emotional toll of SEN parenting and feeling like I was the one falling apart.

✨ You don’t need to be thriving to still take care of yourself.✨ You don’t need to abandon your goals you just need to adjust the load.✨ And you are still worthy of care, even when life feels too much.
