@melrobbins: You're not just stressed, you're overwhelmed. And you need to know the difference... Here’s the difference: Stress is pressure: a busy day, the deadlines, the go, go, go. Overwhelm is when that pressure builds and builds until you can’t think straight, prioritize, or even start. You just freeze. And today’s episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast, I’m breaking down what you need to do when you’re feeling overwhelmed, unmotivated, and burnt out. 🎧 “If You’re Feeling Overwhelmed, You Need to Hear This.” Listen now or watch on YouTube - search “The Mel Robbins Podcast Overwhelm.” #melrobbins #melrobbinspodcast #stress #overwhelm

There’s a difference between that “pressure that motivates” and the kind that crushes you. A little stress can sharpen focus and get things moving, but when it piles up without a break, it stops being helpful and just becomes weight. It’s all about managing the buildup before it turns into overwhelm.

Hard to distinguish the two because stress & being overwhelmed can go back & forth. And yes, go go go and unable to prioritize is interchangeable at times.
