86. Is Your Body Telling You to Slow Down?

How do you take care of yourself when everything feels urgent and there is nothing left to give?

In this week's episode of The Language of Behavior, Joshua Stamper and Charle Peck share an honest conversation about overwhelm, including how it shows up through irritability, procrastination, disrupted sleep, and the pressure to keep pushing. They explore small, practical ways to pause and reset without waiting for a free afternoon or a less demanding week.

Josh and Charle also discuss setting boundaries, asking for help, and deciding what can be postponed, delegated, or declined. In Behind the Banter, they share what they have stopped feeling guilty about saying no to, from extra commitments to being available at every moment. Instead of adding another self-care task to your list, they leave you with a simpler question: What is one thing you can take off your plate?
