If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed and secretly taking it as proof that you’re “bad at life,” this episode is your permission slip to stop making it mean something about you.
Today I’m joined by Corrie LoGiudice (leadership coach + speaker, former SVP) and we’re reframing overwhelm for what it actually is: a sign that something in your life or your current strategy isn’t adapted to your reality anymore. Not a flaw. Not a moral failure. A signal.
Corrie breaks down her 5 Overwhelm Culprits (the real reasons ambitious women get stuck in burnout cycles), why “just slow down” advice can feel like a joke when everyone relies on you, and how to build clarity, boundaries, and systems that support you on your worst days — not your best. We also talk about the difference between being “busy” vs. being misaligned, how perfectionism keeps high achievers stalled out, and a simple 5-year vision exercise that helps you stop looping and start moving.
If you’re living in the “I’m fine” era, this one’s for you.
