When Life Feels Like Too Much

Picture a business traveler sitting in first class, exhausted despite the luxury, suddenly realizing: "If I'm here because of how many miles I've flown, my life is completely out of balance." This moment of clarity came to Mollie West Duffy in December 2018, but it could happen to any of us. We live in a world that glorifies busyness, pathologizes discomfort, and insists we should always be okay. Yet most of us spend significant time wrestling with feelings that seem too big to handle-uncertainty that keeps us awake at night, comparisons that make us feel inadequate, anger we're afraid to express, burnout we can't shake, perfectionism that paralyzes us, despair that swallows us whole, and regrets that haunt our quiet moments. Here's the truth no one wants to admit: these "big feelings" aren't abnormal. They're profoundly human. And learning to navigate them isn't about thinking your way out or pushing through-it's about understanding what these emotions are trying to tell you.
