In this episode of Magic in the Mess, Danielle McKinley gets real about overwhelm—how it sneaks in, spirals out of control, and what to do when it does. From missing a breakfast date for the first time in 38 years to feeling like a computer with 100 tabs open, Danielle shares her personal wake-up call and the five practical strategies she uses to reset: set something down, focus on one priority, phone a friend, laugh at the mess, and time-block for “future you.” A candid, relatable reminder that overwhelm isn’t failure—it’s proof you’re growing, stretching, and becoming more you.
