Ever had one of those moments where, like so many overwhelmed moms, you finally get an hour of uninterrupted work time, but instead of diving in, you find yourself frozen - staring at your screen, desperate for brain-based strategies to handle all the tabs competing for your attention?

That’s not procrastination. That’s not poor time management. That’s your CEO brain in overwhelm mode, and it’s silently hijacking your schedule - which is exactly why overwhelmed moms need brain-based strategies to get back in control.

Welcome to Emotions Behind the Schedule Series | Part 2: Overwhelm

In This Episode You’ll Discover:

• How to shift your productivity mindset from overwhelm and stress to strategic action
• The secret to actually getting time back in your day (hint: it’s not about managing time)
• Four proven strategies to break free from decision paralysis
• How to maximize those precious pockets of time between mom duties
• Why traditional productivity advice fails most mom business owners (and what works instead)

Using neuroscience and real-world examples, we’ll explore why your brain treats an unanswered DM like a survival threat, and more importantly, what to do when your mind goes into full panic mode. Whether you’re squeezing a corporate-sized workload into naptime or building an empire alongside your 9-5, you’ll learn four brain-based strategies to break free from the mental traffic jam and finally get your focus back.

You’ll discover my practical 5-step framework that turns those stuck moments into your biggest business breakthroughs.

This isn’t about never feeling anxious again– it’s about understanding its hidden message and using it to propel you forward.
