Stress has a way of creeping up on us until it feels like a tangled ball of anxiety, tension, and to-do lists. When everything piles on at once, it’s easy to feel frozen — unsure of where to start or how to get relief.

Stress can be overwhelming, especially for high-achieving women juggling careers, families, and personal goals. The key isn’t to eliminate stress completely (that’s impossible!), but to break it down into small, manageable pieces. Once you identify your stress sources, you can pair each one with bite-sized coping strategies that provide immediate relief and foster long-term resilience.
