Episode #74 Feel Less Overwhelmed Fast (Without Adding One More Thing)

Описание: What happens when the life you’ve been powering through stops working—and there’s no clear pause button to figure out what’s next?



In this conversation, Landy Peek sits down with Emily Capuria—licensed therapist turned coach and author—to explore the reality so many women are living: overwhelm, over-functioning, and the quiet sense that your life doesn’t fit anymore, even if it looks “fine” from the outside.



Together, they unpack how meaningful change actually happens when your calendar is full, your family still needs you, and you’re tired of being the one who carries it all. This episode focuses on micro-shifts that create real relief—without adding one more thing to your plate.
