About this listen

Welcome to the Calm in the Noise series, Visionista!

If you've been feeling emotionally tired, mentally scattered, or unusually sensitive lately, this episode is for you. In this episode, I name a quiet but powerful experience many women in business are carrying right now: emotional saturation.

This conversation reframes overwhelm not as weakness or failure, but as the result of prolonged exposure to intensity—news, noise, pressure, and responsibility—without enough space to recover. You'll learn how to recognize the signs, release self-blame, and begin protecting your peace without disengaging from the world.

Reflection Prompts:

  1. Where in my life do I feel "full" rather than tired?
  2. What have I been absorbing emotionally without realizing it?
  3. When I feel overwhelmed, do I blame myself—or pause to assess exposure?

This Week's Mindfulness Strategies:

  • Reframing Overwhelm as Exposure, Not Weakness
  • Nervous-System Awareness Before Self-Correction
  • A Simple Emotional Reset Practice

This Week's Action Step(s)...

Step 1. Name your #1 source of emotional saturation (e.g., news, social media, work pressure, others' emotions).

Step 2. Create one clear boundary for 7 days.

Step 3. Use one daily anchor sentence.
