190: The 5 Culprits of Overwhelm

Overwhelm isn’t the problem. It’s the symptom.

Meet Sandani. It’s Saturday morning, but she can’t get out of bed. Her three children are full of energy while she’s running on empty. As a management accountant navigating uncertainty at work and constant financial worries at home, she never truly stops thinking. Even weekends meant for rest become consumed by anxiety about the future. Sandani isn’t lazy. She isn’t unmotivated. She’s simply carrying more than her mind and body were designed to hold. What she wants most is to stop surviving and start feeling like herself again.

Today, Jay sits down with Corrie LoGiudice, keynote speaker, executive coach, TEDx speaker, and author of The 5 Overwhelm Culprits. After navigating extraordinary personal adversity, Corrie developed a practical framework to help leaders identify what’s really driving their overwhelm so they can regain clarity, confidence, and the energy to move forward.
