Everything Feels Like Too Much

When everything starts to feel heavy, overwhelming, and just plain too much, it’s often not because one thing is wrong — it’s because too many things are being carried at the same time. In this episode, Marilyn talks about emotional overload, why it builds quietly, and how to recognize the signs before it spills over.

This conversation isn’t about fixing or pushing through. It’s about slowing down, sorting what you’re carrying, and creating space to breathe. Through a gentle bubble practice and simple reflection, listeners are invited to notice what truly needs their attention — and what can be set down, even temporarily.

In This Episode, You’ll Hear About:

1. What emotional overload really looks like
2. Why feeling overwhelmed is not a personal failure
3. How emotional weight builds over time
4. A simple bubble practice to sort what you’re carrying
5. Writing as a tool to release pressure without solving everything

Reflection Questions:

1. What feels heaviest for me right now?
2. What am I carrying that can wait?
3. What doesn’t actually belong to me to carry?

Listener Reminder:

Feeling overwhelmed doesn’t mean you’re incapable.

It means you’ve been capable for a long time without enough space to rest.
