Overwhelmed Working Woman: Overwhelmed Working Woman: Be More Productive, Master Time Management, Overcome Overwhelm & Stop People Pleasing (Michelle Gauthier)

001 - Life Coach Michelle Gauthier introduces herself and her new podcast, The Overwhelmed Working Woman. 

In this first episode, I’ll teach you the very first step to stop feeling overwhelmed, which is to get friendly with it. Instead of wishing overwhelm would go away or trying to ignore it, I'll teach you how to get curious about it. When you understand your overwhelm and stress, you can learn how to control and reduce it.  

I’ll also introduce myself and tell you about my journey from overwhelmed working corporate mom to calm life coach. 

You’ll also learn that I love naps and meditation - and that I’m bossy.

If you are sick of feeling overwhelmed and want to work with me 1 on 1 to start feeling better now, set up a complimentary discovery session to learn more about coaching.

Welcome to the Overwhelmed Working Woman podcast with me, Michelle Gauthier. I’m a Life Coach, a single mom of 2, and a former overwhelmed working woman myself. 

Podcasts were my lifeline during some of my toughest times. They gave me inspiration, insights, and tools that helped me to stay calm and focused even when everything around me felt like it was falling apart.

That's why I created Overwhelmed Working Woman. I want to help you feel less overwhelmed, less stressed and more calm by sharing the coaching, tips, and strategies that I use with my clients. No matter how busy or overwhelming your life feels, you can feel better if you implement what I teach in each episode. 

If you have a never ending to-do list, say “yes” all the time to make other people happy, feel guilty for not working enough or momming enough (or both at the same time!) - this is the podcast for you.   

If you love the podcast, it would be fantastic if you could review and subscribe. That way, other overwhelmed working women will see the podcast too. I want us ALL to feel better. Thank you for listening. Enjoy the show!

002 - This episode is all about what’s in your control - and what’s not! When you’re feeling stressed and overwhelmed, taking the time to determine what you can control not only makes you feel better, but also gives you a “to do” list and a “to don’t” list. 

Your own thoughts, feelings and actions are always in your control. What other people think about you or what they do is always out of your control. I’ll teach you a quick tool to reduce your stress by focusing on what’s in your control.

• If you actually want to say yes or no (sounds obvious, right? But many people skip this step!) 
• How to use the "Love and Fit test", a simple and powerful tool to determine what you really want.

007 This week we have a guest on the podcast. I invited my friend and client Lauren Rapaport because she is a shining example of how you can take your life from stuck, overwhelmed and miserable to “the world is my oyster and I can have and create anything I want.” 

In this episode, Lauren will tell you exactly how and what she did to create her new, happy life. 

Sneak preview: she quit the job she hated and started a new business. She quit drinking and started feeling her feelings. She quit being in “victim mentality” and stopped beating herself up. She accepted her type 1 diabetes instead of hating it. She started loving life and having gratitude for everything. 

To quote Lauren “I am just 100% happier than I was before”. 

Tune in to get the full scoop, this is a good one!

008 - If your home is cluttered, chances are your mind is, too. In today’s episode, I will teach you the simple steps for decluttering any space. Decluttering your entire house may sound very overwhelming, so I recommend that you start with a small space, like a sock drawer, and spend 30 minutes or less. 

I’ll also cover the reasons why you shouldn’t keep clothes that don’t fit you, or hold on to items you no longer want but spent a lot of money on. I’ll help you lovingly let go of your great aunt’s table cloth that you never liked in the first place. 

Join me and start letting go of what you DON’T want to create space and freedom in your home and your life. 

I created a free decluttering guide that you can download and use for reference as you work on clearing out your space. Grab it here.

“Just stop caring what other people think!” 

We’ve all heard that one. It’s a lot easier said than done, and that's why I'm here to help. I'll explain why we care so much about others' opinions and provide practical strategies to evaluate and overcome this tendency.

Do you often catch yourself worrying about what others think of you? Whether it's in social settings or at work, it's time to break free from this cycle. 

I’ll share a story about how I let my fear of failure and concern about others' judgment held me back from something I actually wanted to do.

010 - Before coaching, Kari's life was "just fine".  She was recently divorced and learning to be the sole breadwinner and single mom. She worried about money, which impacted every decision she made.

Thankfully, Kari decided "just fine" wasn't enough for her. She wanted to have "an amazing second half of life".

Kari learned to balance structure with creativity, and increased the profits of her graphic design business by 50%. She improved the relationships in her life when she stopped people pleasing. She learned to trust the universe, and choose optimism at every turn.

Don't miss this heartwarming conversation that demonstrates the transformative power of coaching and the possibility of creating not just a thriving career, but a truly fulfilling life.

Overwhelm is kind of like having a cavity. There's something you can do about it after you get one - go to the dentist and have it filled. But there are also things you can do to prevent every getting a cavity at all. It's the same with overwhelm - there are things you can do after it happens, and there are also ways to (mostly) overwhelm-proof your life in advance.

In today's episode I'll share 3 areas to focus on to help prevent overwhelm, and share strategies for incorporating these tips into your life without adding to your stress.

Tune in, then try out a tip or two and let me know how it goes!

Let's talk about our feelings!

If that makes you want to run away, I get it. I used to not want to talk about my feelings either. But not feeling our feelings cuts us off from information about our lives, makes it hard to connect with others, and ultimately robs us of joy.

In this episode we'll talk about why we should feel our feelings, and how to do that if it doesn't come naturally to you. I have some great tools for you that will help you navigate and deal with your emotions more effectively. 

Our emotions, if we're paying attention, can offer us a wealth of insights. Come along with me on this enlightening journey!

Ever felt overwhelmed by your career and wondered if there was another way? Our guest today, John Auble, is living proof that it's possible. Once an engineer drowned in the corporate hustle, John took a leap of faith, left his demanding career and carved out his own entrepreneurial path. 

John didn't simply swap a corporate job for his own business - he completely redesigned his life and went from a life of stress and imbalance to one of fulfillment and harmony. We talk about taking risks, moving past limiting beliefs, and remembering your reason why.

My guest today is my friend and former client Tara Perman. When we started coaching, Tara was feeling uninspired with her successful career of 23 years.

She was the primary parent in her household and COVID had taken its toll - she was frustrated with trying to manage everything. She knew she wanted to change careers, but was afraid to take the plunge.

The first thing we worked on was the idea that the fear of change was real and would always be there. Tara learned to move forward with her business while feeling the fear instead of waiting for it to go away. She stuck with her plan to become a career coach, even when it felt hard.

Things changed at home, too. She put in her notice before a family vacation, much earlier than she had previously planned. She fully enjoyed vacation with her family for the first time. She decided to spend the whole summer with her kids, without the stress of working, for the first time.

She marketed her new business even when it felt scary. When she felt stuck, she would just take one tiny step in the direction of her new life.

She now has a successful coaching business and just took a month-long vacation to Europe with her husband and kids for the second summer in a row. 

Tune in and listen to Tara’s full story!

Routines get a bad rap because they're associated with boredom, but if you use them effectively, the results are anything but boring. I've got some great easy-to-implement routine ideas in this episode that just might transform your life.

Some routines (like my Fresh Start Morning Routine) help you be more intentional and present. Other routines (like planning meals) can free up your brain so you can do all sorts of awesome things that otherwise you might not have had the emotional bandwidth for.

A big source of suffering in our lives is the gap between our expectations of a situation or a person and the reality of the situation or person - and the bigger the gap, the more the suffering.

The good news is that there is a way to protect yourself from some of that suffering before you even get into the situation or encounter the person. The key: setting realistic expectations.

Join me as we learn to adjust our expectations, allow for pleasant surprises, and side-step some serious stress - even at the DMV.

Shannon O'Toole's journey is a testament to the power of aligning personal values with professional ambitions. We all have values - the ideas or beliefs that motivate us to act in certain ways. Living in alignment with our values requires a lot of reflection and intentionality, but doing so helps guide us through setbacks and decision-making and ultimately helps us live a life we're proud of.

Shannon turned an unexpected job loss into her dream career by following her intuition and living out her values. Her story is so encouraging and inspiring!

If you're the one who schedules all of your family's doctor appointments, and knows that school gets out early the third Wednesday of every month, you're doing the invisible workload. If you know which one of your kids likely got too tall for any of last year's pants . . . and you've started looking for fall sales to re-stock, you're doing the invisible workload. 

Invisible work is everything we do as women to anticipate our family's needs before they happen. But that's not all.  We also research options to fill that need, make the decision about what to do, and then make the solution happen. 

This unseen mental labor consumes a ton of time and mental energy. Join me as we talk through the invisible workload of women and what we can do to share the load a bit. And hey – give yourself some kudos for all of that work you do!

Today on the podcast we’re talking about Dads. (Yep, you read that right! 🤣)

I invited my friend and fellow coach Tommy Geary (who coaches overwhelmed and stressed out Dads) to be a guest expert today in an effort to help us understand the unique pressures that men face.

We dig into the challenges faced by fathers and the importance of their self care. Tommy explains the pressure men feel to be good providers and fathers simultaneously, the impact of that pressure on their mental health, and ways to navigate the journey of fatherhood successfully. 

By seeking support, managing anger, and finding balance, dads can embrace the joys of fatherhood while nurturing their own well-being. 

ALSO! Tommy and I had an in depth conversation about adoption (we each have 2 adopted children) which will come out later this month in support of National Adoption Month. 💗

Welcome to Part 2 of my chat with Tommy Geary! This episode is mostly about our experiences with adoption - Tommy (and his wife) and I are both adoptive parents - but there are coaching nuggets in there as well.

Adoption is an incredibly beautiful, joyful, and heartbreaking journey, and I love to talk about it. Tommy and I share about the profound respect we have for our children's birth mothers and our crazy tales of being matched with our first babies so quickly we didn't even have car seats.

We also talk about the importance of the MGI (the most generous interpretation), feeling your feelings, and connecting with others who have similar experiences.

We hope our stories will resonate with those who have adopted, are considering adoption, or simply have a heart for this beautiful way of creating a family.

Holding on to those jeans, just in case?  

In today's episode, the focus is on decluttering clothes that no longer fit—whether that’s physically, or they just don’t fit your lifestyle anymore. Many of us hold onto clothes as a way to “motivate” ourselves to return to a certain size. Turns out, this takes a toll on our mental health. 

Today’s challenge is to let go of the clothes that don’t serve you anymore. Whether it’s that pair of jeans you’re saving for “someday” or a suit you haven’t worn since 2006, clearing out these items can free up both physical and mental space. The goal is to have a closet filled with clothes that make you feel good right now.
