Description

Overwhelmed.
Can you relate to this feeling? 
Overwhelmed with the number of things you need to get done. From cleaning the house, homeschooling your kids, organizing meals, working, maintaining friendships, and connecting with your partner - the list goes on.
But what would happen if you took a pause? Took a deliberate moment to rest through the day.
In this episode, I connect with Allison Keating, founder of bWell Clinic in Ireland, about how we can move out of the mindset of being a perfect woman and giving ourselves the space to not always please, perform or be perfect.  Here are a few of the highlights: 

5:32 - What does the ‘striving mode’ look like?

9:53 - The Pause 

12:03 - Reflecting to determine where we learned our norms from

19:43 - What’s the impact on our relationships with our partners and children?

21:43 - Strategies to help you let go of the overwhelm

37:53 - Ways to start to nourish and replenish yourself
