Invisible stressors are stressors in our lives that aren’t necessarily obvious but can build up over time and take us down. As a multi-passionate entrepreneur, volunteer, and solo parent and caregiver of a special needs child, Janis Isaman found herself experiencing an anxiety episode when her invisible stressors built up, leaving her feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, and behind on her task list. This week, episode 234 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is a strategy call where I help Janis handle the invisible stressors in her demanding life!
In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, you’ll see how someone whose business revolves around wellness and who constantly checks all of the self-care boxes can still fall victim to invisible stressors. I coach Janis on navigating her unbalanced support systems, reducing visual clutter in her home, and managing the different areas of life that require her attention.
Janis and I cover the following topics:
- Planning time and space for the unexpected to pop up without derailing everything else.
- Setting parameters about what notifications to allow all the time and setting designated times to check the rest.
- Creating a system to organize and inventory the surplus of household items to reduce visual clutter and avoid over-buying.
- Upholding the systems you put in place when life gets overwhelming.
While these strategy calls speak directly to the problems my guest is facing, we can all fall victim to these invisible stressors. If you think you would benefit from a strategy session with me, I encourage you to reach out. I would love to help you navigate your unique problems.
