The Overthinker's Guide to Joy with Jackie de Crinis | How Curiosity Reduces Anxiety

Ep #11: How Curiosity Reduces Anxiety

November 17, 2021

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, we realize that not everything has an operating manual. There is no manual for how to deal with your boss, how to be married, or take care of a child. And this realization causes serious anxiety for so many people. So, this week, I’m showing you how you can use curiosity to reduce this anxiety.

Tune in this week as I walk you through the most important coaching tool there is. I’m showing you how to get curious about your triggers, so you can get yourself out of anxiety and negative thought patterns when difficult circumstances come up for you, and see that every situation is full of possibilities.
