S3 - Episode 16 - The Overcommitment Chronicles with Alix & Colleen
Manage episode 486589512 series 3457003
As we approach the end of the season - can you believe our season finale is in 2 weeks?!? we are diving into something that seems to systematically amp up imposter syndrome...overcommitting. 😪 Is it people-pleasing? A need for external validation? Or just sheer delusion that tomorrow might just have more than 24 hours?
Whatever the cause, in this week's episode, we're not only talking about the reasons why we're prone to overextend ourselves, we’re also exploring the hidden costs that come along with it. Because, overcommitting isn’t just a scheduling nightmare—it’s an imposter syndrome amplifier. When you spread yourself too thin, it’s easy to feel like you’re one misstep away from someone figuring out you’re winging it. Hint: They won’t, because you're not... but you still deserve better than running yourself into the ground trying to prove it.
As life long 'overcommitters', we share a few survival tips we have used to get our schedules (and peace of mind) under control, including how we prioritize and arrange our days, how to implement and organize healthy boundaries and how to really focus on and pinpoint what is most important to our quality of life...
TL;DR: Our worth doesn’t depend on how many fires we put out in a week. 🙌🔥
So, if this sounds familiar, join us as we sort through the chaos—together.
