Make Stress Control a Daily Habit in 21 Days

The 21 Day Overflow RESET™ turns the 10-second tools that work into everyday habits. A few minutes a day, and you control stress instead of stress controlling you.

Knowing the tools isn't the same as using them

Stress is a practice problem, not a knowledge problem. Like a shaken bottle of root beer, pressure builds all day. Without a way to let some out, you explode on the people you love, or you implode and it shows up in your sleep, focus, and health.

This program is where the tools become part of your day.

HOW IT WORKS:

  • 1)

    Every 5 days, a new module unlocks.

    Delivered to your inbox. No rushing, no overwhelm. One focused layer of the system at a time. Each includes a 30-minute video from me and tools you can start using right away.

  • 2)

    Complete a brief assignment and send it to me for review.

    Simple but powerful. This is how learning moves from your head into your life. Space is limited because I personally review every assignment.

  • 3)

    Track your daily progress.

    At day 21, you measure your Stress Quotient again. If you've done the work and it hasn't dropped by 50%, I'll refund you 100%.

Here's What We'll Cover...

Stress Mastery - How To Avoid Burnout

Module 1: SEE IT

The Overflow Insight

You can't drain a tub you don't know is overflowing. Develop the awareness to see exactly what's been filling your compartment.

Module 2: HONOR IT

Acknowledge What You Carry

Most people are taught to push through and say "I'm fine." Learn why honoring what you carry, instead of burying it, is the foundation of lasting change.

Module 3: RELEASE IT

Drain The Tub

The step most programs miss. Learn why your body needs physical release, and master Dump N Destroy, the crayon method, and the Magic Palm Dump.

This module alone is worth the entire investment.

Module 4: PREVENT IT

Protect the Professional Self

Build the boundaries, rituals, and daily practices that protect your capacity. The Backpack Ritual, saying no without guilt, and self-care that works for demanding schedules.

Living One Day at a Time

Your tub fills from yesterday you haven't released and tomorrow you haven't lived yet. Learn to carry only what today actually asks of you.

PLUS These Special Features Exclusive To This Training...

  • Action Accelerators

    Simple action assignments that put what you're learning into practice. You submit them to me for review.

  • Carol's Success Tracker

    This is a special tool developed and used by Carol which is grounded in neuroscience and sets you up for successfully building new habits.

  • Overflow RESET Community

    The ongoing support of a like-minded group is a lifeline, and it builds momentum.

  • Coaching With Carol

    Every 4th Wednesday at 7:30pm EST. Bring your questions, struggles, and wins. Can't make it live? Submit a question and watch the replay.

This is for you if:

  • You carry real responsibility for others, as a clinician, leader, first responder, caregiver, or professional in a high-pressure role
  • You already know some stress tools and want them to become automatic, even on your hardest days
  • You're willing to give a few minutes a day and submit your assignments
  • You want a measurable change and are open to tracking your numbers
  • Are tired of generic “self-care” advice that doesn’t work especially when you have no spare time in your day

This is NOT for you if:

  • You're looking for a quick fix you can listen to once and forget. The results come from daily practice.
  • You don't want to complete assignments or trackers. The guarantee depends on them, and so do the results.
  • You're hoping to eliminate stress completely. It's your brain's survival system. The goal is to control the flow, not to stop it.
  • You're in crisis or need clinical treatment. This program is education and coaching, not therapy or medical care. If you're struggling with your safety or severe symptoms, please reach out to a mental health professional or call or text 988 first.

The 100% Guarantee

Before you begin, you complete your Frame It assignment: measuring your Stress Quotient (SQ) and rating the impact of stress on 7 key areas of your life. At day 21 you complete the exact same measurement.

My bold promise: if you complete every assignment and tracker and your SQ doesn't drop by 50%, I'll refund every penny. No vague promises. Just your numbers, before and after.

** To qualify, submit your Frame It assignment, all module assignments, all weekly trackers, and your Post Rating. Request your refund within 30 days of submitting your Post Rating. **

About Carol Rickard, LCSW

Stress & Burnout Expert | 2x TEDx Speaker | Creator of the Rapid Release Code™

I didn't choose to become a caregiver. Life chose it for me. After my father died, my mother became critically ill, and overnight I found myself caring for my family as a 14-year-old.

That led me to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and spend more than 35 years helping thousands of people through stress, anxiety, and overwhelm. I've written more than 40 books and spoken as a 2x TEDx speaker.

But I made the same mistake so many caregivers make. I became so good at caring for everyone else that I stopped caring for myself. That journey led to what I teach today: Stress is inevitable. Burnout isn't.

My TEDx talk introduced the Magic Palm Dump, which spread all the way to Germany during a single break at TEDx Princeton.

I nearly lost my dream career to stress-induced migraines, battled undiagnosed depression for two years, and survived Stage 3 endometrial cancer during a global pandemic. I didn't just study this system. I live it.
