Confident Conversations is a weekly podcast show, hosted by me, Sherry Bevan, Author, Coach & Speaker. I love having conversations about career and confidence. In my podcast I interview ambitious women as well as those employers who value female talent. This first episode is about how to cope with overwhelm. My name is Sherry Bevan and I run The Confident Mother. After more than 25 years in professional services, I set up my own business so that I could balance work and life more confidently. Now I help other ambitious women get clear on what they really want and then find the confidence to go and do it. Many of the mums that I talk to sometimes struggle with how to cope with overwhelm. In the show, you will explore: the signs of overwhelm the reasons that we experience so much overwhelm how choice overwhelm makes it difficult to decide information overload how women take on too much: our need to please and the need for perfectionism five ideas that help my clients cope with overwhelm so that they get more done.
