Episode 169: Planning Burnout

In this episode, I'm diving deep into the complex world of wedding planning, particularly focused on the burnout many brides experience as they juggle their preparations alongside demanding careers and vibrant social lives. The challenge of integrating wedding planning into already busy schedules can feel monumental, leading to exhaustion and overwhelm when trying to manage the myriad tasks involved. Many brides find themselves lost in a whirlwind of to-dos, from attending other weddings to engaging in group chats about wedding details, which can create a sense of chaos rather than progress. I share practical tips to help couples navigate the planning process with ease. Creating timelines and setting milestones will help manage expectations and activities efficiently. I also discuss the necessity of delegation, especially for more mundane tasks, allowing couples to focus on the essential parts of planning that require their attention and emotional investment. This division of labor prevents burnout and ensures that the big picture doesn’t get lost amidst the details.
