Meltdowns, Overwhelm & Self Judgements
Description
In this episode, Lucy and Angelina dive into the tender terrain of overwhelm, self-judgment, and the relief that comes when we finally allow ourselves to feel what we’re feeling.
What begins as a conversation about juggling commitments and the pressure to keep everything together gently unfolds into a raw and honest exploration of self-compassion.
Lucy shares the story of her recent meltdown — not as a failure, but as a natural reset that softened her self-judgment and opened a sense of ease.
Angelina reflects on the weight of feeling responsible for everything, especially during intense moments with her daughter’s health, and how stepping back even slightly can reveal a completely different perspective.
Together, they explore the shifting “characters” we play in life — from the victim voice to the rule-follower — and how these roles aren’t who we are, just momentary expressions passing through. Woven with unexpected wisdom from children’s movies, real-life messiness, and Elsie Spittle’s teachings, the conversation becomes a reminder that healing happens naturally when we stop forcing, soften our grip, and let life move us back into balance.
Honest, tender, and deeply human, this episode is an invitation to meet ourselves with compassion, lighten the load, and trust the resilience at our core.
