Ep #11: How Curiosity Reduces Anxiety
When it comes to action-oriented people, overthinkers, and overdoers, we want to know the how-to, which makes sense. We were raised to believe there is a formula for everything. We were encouraged to see the right and wrong in every situation. And this worked throughout school and our early life. However, as we get older,…
Ep #10: Forgiveness is Freedom
When my clients come to me, a lot of them are struggling with the aftermath of toxic friendships, relationships, and old wounds. I often see a pattern of toxic relationships that stems from their childhood: raised by either narcissists or substance abusers. And as adults, this leads to overcompensation, people pleasing, and overthinking. But what…
Ep #9: The Power of Gratitude
As you probably know by now, I believe that good habits are the foundational work to creating a more successful, happy, healthy life. But the truth is that bad habits are simply easier. Watching TV is easier than exercising, and eating fries takes less effort than chopping up vegetables. But this work doesn’t stop at…
Ep #8: The Power of Decluttering
What is clutter? Well, it can be anything. It could be physical junk and trash, it could even be useful items, but the problem is it’s everywhere and there’s just too much. Whatever it looks like for you, I believe that clutter creates a sense of chaos. And if you’re not naturally tidy or a…
Ep #7: The Power of Routine
Your physical, mental, and emotional health depend heavily on routine and regularity, particularly if you’re an overthinker. It helps take the guesswork out of what you should be doing next and how your day will look as a whole. A routine is a great way of canceling out all of the noise around what you…
Ep #6: The Power of The Pause
As a classic overthinker, I have a confession to make: I am still struggling to master the art of doing nothing. As you all know from previous episodes, I am a daily meditator. However, outside of meditation – which I don’t really consider to be doing nothing – taking a pause and truly doing nothing…
Ep #5: The Power of Journaling
I’m expanding on the essential daily habits I discussed over the first four episodes of this podcast and introducing you to another: Journaling. This is one of my favorite ways to manage my overthinking brain, and it’s a hack I recommend to almost every one of my clients. It’s interesting how often people push back…
Ep #4: 4 Essential Habits to Reducing Stress: Exercise
This is the final installment of my four-part series, in which I share the four essential elements to reducing stress: my HOME Work. And the E stands for exercise. And while this may sound like an obvious part of a healthy lifestyle, fully understanding the benefits will help you make this a daily habit that…
Ep #3: 4 Essential Habits to Reducing Stress: Meditation
This is part three of my HOME Series, the four essential habits that, if you implement them, will help relax your mind, feel better, and live more productively. We’ve talked about the importance of Hydration, as well as Observing Your Levels (what we eat and how we sleep). And this third part is one of…
Ep #2: 4 Essential Habits to Reducing Stress: Observe Your Levels
In last week’s episode, we discussed the importance of hydration when it comes to basic self-care and managing your stress. And in part two of this HOME series, we’re discussing my second go-to habit for overthinkers: Observe Your Levels. Observe Your Levels refers to two things: what you eat, and how much you sleep. And…
