124: 2 Practical Steps to Stop Worrying What Other People Think

Do you find it hard to relax around other people? Do you get stuck in your head, worry about what others are thinking, or feel self-conscious in social situations, whether you're at work, with friends, or simply out in public?

I feel with you. I used to be afraid to leave the house and struggled with crippling social anxiety.

In this episode, I share the two skills that allowed me to outgrow these limitations, access more of who I am, and experience a sense of calm and peace in situations that used to have me sweating.

The Two Skills:

✨ Emotional regulation – how to calm your nervous system through your breath and reconnecting with your body.

✨ Authenticity – tangible and practical ways to reconnect with who you are, so you can feel safer being you.

If you're tired of overthinking every interaction and want to feel more comfortable, present, and at ease around other people, this episode is for you.

Questions for reflection from this episode:
💛How am I different from a year ago?
💛What are the ways that I've grown and changed that I really like?
💛In what ways do I navigate difficult situations better than I used to?
