Podcast Episode 33: Chapter 9 - Learn How to Handle Rough Seas (Emotions)

In this episode, I dive into Chapter 9 of my bestselling book  Inner Brilliance: Outer Shine, 10 Antidotes to Imposter Syndrome, Workaholism & Stress. I share how learning to handle life’s rough seas can shape our journey, both personally and professionally. I discuss the importance of managing our state of mind, processing emotions, and using practical tools to build resilience and find joy, even during challenging times. My goal is to help you become the captain of your own ship, steering toward greater wellbeing and fulfilment.

Key Topics Covered:
• Our state of mind directly impacts our actions, performance, and happiness.
• Acknowledging and processing emotions is essential. I share how and the consequences of not doing this.
• Tools like Havening and EFT can help reset limiting beliefs and manage stress.
• Scheduling joy and making space for fun are vital for resilience.
• You have the power to navigate challenges, no matter the circumstances.

Here’s to your shining!
