Overcoming Overwhelm, Overconsumption & Overload: How to Rewire Your Brain and Reclaim Your Joy
A Talk by Dara Tomasson
About this Talk
Do you find yourself buying more fabric, watching endless tutorials, or scrolling social media instead of actually quilting? You’re not lazy or unmotivated—you’re overwhelmed. And you’re not alone.
In this powerful, eye-opening workshop, Dara Tomasson—life coach and creator of the Overconsumption Quiz—helps you uncover the hidden patterns behind your stash, your schedule, and your self-doubt. You'll discover the four Overconsumption Archetypes and learn why you scroll, shop, or shut down when life feels too heavy.
More importantly, you’ll get real tools to:
- Break free from decision fatigue and creative burnout
- Regulate your nervous system without needing chocolate or a cart full of fabric
- Reset your habits with awareness, not shame
- Make room for joy, clarity, and quilting you actually finish
Whether you're a Fabric Forager, Research Rabbit, Stash Scroller, or Idea Collector, this session will help you shift from overloaded to empowered. It’s time to stop buffering and start creating with purpose.
🧠Includes access to the Overconsumption Quiz + a powerful recovery kit.
