Episode 9: About overwhelm (and God and stuff)

What is overwhelm, really? What's it made of? Why does it feel so heavy and gripping sometimes, and not a thing at all in other times? These are just some of the things we explore in this week's episode (with a fun detour into God talk) :)

Episode Notes:

  • What if overwhelm describes the state of our mind not the state of our life?

  • How can a list of things to do have weight?

  • Humans create drama about what’s happening and how much there is to do

  • What if life doesn’t need to be handled, and just gives us what we need to do the thing in front of us?

  • What if how we think life is going is irrelevant?

  • When you see something truer than the voice in your head, it takes care of itself

  • What’s always there beneath and beyond the chaos?

  • Why we don’t want you to listen to our words

  • What if we’re all just waking up to something we already know?
