[S5. Ep16] The 3-Step Rescue Plan for When You’re Totally Overwhelmed
As female founders, we carry so much. We’re leading teams, serving clients, keeping the money flowing, protecting the culture — until the weight gets too heavy. That’s not weakness. That’s leadership fatigue.
In this episode of Female Founder Unplugged, I’m sharing the exact 3-step rescue plan I use with my clients — and with myself — to stop the spiral of overwhelm and get back in control.
✨ Episode Highlights
- Why overwhelm doesn’t mean you’re broken — and why it hits the most capable leaders.
- What leadership fatigue looks like (and how to know when you’ve hit the wall).
- The 3-step rescue plan: grounding yourself, finding the fire, and reaching for support.
- A powerful reframe: overwhelm isn’t a sentence, it’s a signal.
Because you don’t need to push harder to prove yourself. You just need the right reset.
