  Episode 144 - Am I Overwhelmed or am I Depressed?

  Sep 23, 202612 minS1

  Ever wondered if you're just in a rough season...or if something more is going on? In this episode, we're pulling apart two things that often get lumped together: chronic overwhelm and depression. They can look similar from the outside (tired, foggy, irritable) but feel very different on the inside. We'll talk through what sets them apart, the questions to ask yourself, and why naming what you're actually experiencing is the first step toward real relief, not just pushing through.

  Sep 9, 202613 minS1

  You started tracking your sleep, your steps, your water, your gratitude...all to feel better. So why does it feel like one more job you're failing at? In this episode, Briana names the exhaustion hiding underneath wellness culture's obsession with optimization, and offers practical tools to help challenge this mentality. This one's for the listener who loves a good system but is quietly drowning in metrics. References: Psalm 46:10 Episode 3 - "5,5,5" https://www.buzzsprout.com/275153/episodes/1645342

  Episode 140 - Name That Boundary

  Jul 29, 202612 minS1

  Welcome to our new game show, Name...That...Boundary! Okay not really, but if you leave personal boundaries up to a game of chance (or expecting others to mind read), it's easy to see why resentment and frustration might appear often. In this episode, Briana clarifies the role of boundaries and why they MUST be named in order to have the chance to be respected. You're not alone if this is a struggle, and she explores why it can sometimes be hard to name boundaries. Website: brianaleach.com IG and FB: @brianaleachlpc
