Shownotes

In this episode, I’m joined by Kelly Mobeck, also known as Coach Kelly, a certified performance and leadership coach with over two decades of experience supporting high achieving professionals.

Together, we talk about overwhelm, that heavy, all consuming feeling so many of us carry, and why it’s not a sign that you’re failing or doing something wrong.

Kelly shares practical, grounded strategies to help you create relief in the moment, along with deeper insights into how perfectionism, people pleasing, and self doubt quietly fuel burnout.

This conversation is about finding clarity, setting boundaries that actually stick, and choosing progress over perfection so you can move forward with more ease, alignment, and harmony.

Highlights:

(02:26) How overwhelm is different from stress and burnout

(08:24) What’s really underneath the feeling of being overwhelmed

(10:27) How perfectionism and people pleasing quietly fuel burnout

(12:53) Small practices that bring relief in the moment

(15:08) How to prioritize when everything feels urgent

(22:49) The self limiting belief that keeps overwhelm alive
