32. Too much to hold alone: a gentle conversation for overwhelmed hearts

About this episode

In this episode, Lori A Andrus discusses the feelings of overwhelm and the importance of support and tenderness in challenging times.

Lately, I keep hearing (and saying to myself) this phrase: I just can’t deal with it. If that’s been true for you too, you are not alone. In this episode of the Luminary Life Podcast, I create space to speak honestly about overwhelm, tenderness, and the challenge of living in a world that can feel like too much. With Spirit Quartz as our ally for the month and its message to sink into the warm embrace of your spirit family, this episode explores: * why it is okay and normal to feel overwhelmed right now * what it means to be tender in a world that asks us to absorb too much * how support, spirit family, and the earth can help hold what feels immense* why stepping back is not weakness * and how the ways you let your light shine, however big or small, are enough One of the clearest messages to come through in this episode is this: It is okay and normal to feel overwhelmed right now. What we are processing and navigating is immense. The ways you allow yourself to show up and let your light shine, however big or small, is enough.
