This episode walks through a short, specific way to reset in that exact moment.It's a simple four-part practice: name what's actually happening, remind yourself it's a normal response to overload, ask what you genuinely need right now, and choose one small next step you can actually take.It takes about two minutes, and it won't clear your whole list.
