Drowning In Work? 4 Proven Ways To Keep Overwhelm At Bay – Ep. 86

from The Inspired Healthcare Leader | Healthcare Leadership, Work-Life Balance, Managing Change · host Mara Ergas-Zabari RN, PhD - Healthcare Leader, Consultant, & Researcher

Drowning in work? When everything feels urgent and there’s more coming at you than you can possibly keep up with, it’s easy to slip into overwhelm. And once you’re there, it can become even harder to think clearly, prioritize, and see what truly needs your attention. In this episode, I’m sharing four practical, research-backed ways to keep overwhelm at bay—even when your workload too heavy. You’ll learn how to get everything you’re carrying out of your head, let go of the invisible rules adding unnecessary pressure, stop mentally living the whole week at once, and interrupt the flooded state that makes everything feel like an emergency. And just as importantly, we’ll talk about how to recognize when the workload genuinely is too much—and how to get clear enough to decide what to do, what can wait, what can be delegated, and what may need to change.
