37: 5 Methods of Dealing With Overwhelm

Actuarial Journey with Nemo Ashong

Feeling overwhelmed seems to come with the territory of making any major change in life and pursing any major calling. As we know, the Actuarial Journey is a marathon, not a sprint, and sometimes the volume of what we need to do for work, fitness, family, and fun can feel a bit much.

It happens to us all along our journey, whether you're applying for an actuarial job, studying for an SOA/CAS exam, working for as an actuary in insurance/consulting, or pursing a career change to actuarial work. Today's episode, I share an experience where I felt that way and the 5 steps I typically take when dealing with overwhelm.
