Stress Mess: A Less Stress Podcast
Welcome to Stress Mess: A Stress Less Podcast.
Hosted by me, Samantha Elizabeth—coach, consultant, and a medically diagnosed stressed-out human.
Let’s be real: life is a chaotic dumpster fire sometimes, and stress? It’s the gasoline. Whether it’s work, relationships, your never-ending to-do list, or just existing in a world where emails never stop—this podcast is your judgment-free zone to unpack it all.
Each episode, we’ll dive into the real shit that makes us unravel—and more importantly, how to stitch ourselves back together. Some days it'll be me ranting with love and truth bombs. Other days I’ll bring in guests to spill their stress stories and survival tactics.
Swearing sometimes happens (and that’s okay).
This isn’t your typical "breathe in, breathe out" wellness podcast. It’s honest, occasionally inappropriate, and always aimed at helping you go from a full-blown stress mess… to just slightly less of a mess.
Let’s stress less, together.

Networking fails, true crime obsessions, and the universal fear of presenting in front of people — this episode has it all.
My guest, Libby Magliolo, is a presentation coach, slide wizard, and self-proclaimed introvert who knows what it’s like to feel awkward… but also how to show up with confidence in front of an audience.
We cover:
- Networking tips (spoiler: people won’t just come to you!)
- The psychology behind society’s obsession with true crime
- What to do when you choke during a presentation (been there 🙋🏻♀️)
- Libby’s best tips for presenting without panic — from exposure therapy to wearing “one hat” at a time
Whether you’re a seasoned speaker or someone who’d rather hide under the table, you’ll walk away with practical advice and a few laughs.
