Feeling buried under your to-do list? Trust us, we’ve been there. In this episode of the Deeply Rooted Business Podcast, we’re having a real and honest conversation about what it looks like to manage overwhelm, especially as Q1 wraps and the pressure to stay productive is high.
We’re sharing personal experiences and walking you through the exact process we use to reset when life and business feel like a lot. This isn’t about pushing through—it’s about pausing, getting grounded, and finding a rhythm that works.
From evaluating our calendars to simplifying our task lists, these are the steps we come back to anytime we need to breathe, regroup, and move forward with intention.
In this episode, we cover:
- 02:48 Why you need to acknowledge the overwhelm
- 05:11 How to reset your calendar with strategy and intention
- 12:00 Use our favorite reset tool—The Five D Method (Dump, Delete, Delay, Delegate, Decide)
