Overwhelm isn’t random; it’s a pattern rooted in our beliefs. Join Delores and business coach Colleen Underwood as they explore the five archetypes of overwhelm and share gentle shifts to help creatives find calm and clarity.

Delores shares how planning her entire 2026—courses, challenges, rest and creative projects—has brought her a deep sense of peace. Through her own story she encourages artists to see planning as a pathway to freedom, not restriction, and offers a free goal planner to help you start your own journey.
