Grab your coffee because today’s podcast is SPICY!

Believe it or not most people are operating from a movie in their mind when it comes to stressful situations.

Which is probably why we say to ourselves, “Why did I say that?” or “I wish I hadn’t sent that email!”.

If you’ve ever looked back at a situation and thought, “Hmm, I guess it wasn’t THAT bad….” and yet in the moment you couldn’t help but operate in a way you wish you hadn’t.

Well, this podcast is for you.

Listen to today’s episode where I talk about how we SEE stress in our mind and how we can separate the movie in our mind so that we can start focusing on the facts of what is happening instead.

How should we handle unexpected situations when life throws us a curveball?

Is our response controlled by fear and attempts to mitigate stressful situations from ever happening again?

Or do we show up feeling everything and yet with a quiet internal calm, knowing full well this is part of what it means to be a human?

In this episode we’re going to discuss what happens when unexpected situations arise and what it means to respond to the situation with facts on hand vs the movie in our mind.

How to use an EASY formula...

So you’re smart, kind, highly empathetic, and have a strong work and life ethic.

I’m even willing to bet you’ve done a lot of work on yourself to develop all of those management skills that also include self-development and mindset.

So then, why is that when a problem comes our way that everything seems to fly out the window and we’re still reacting the way that we are…. in stress?

If you can relate, don’t worry, nothing has gone wrong.

All of that hard work hasn’t gone to waste and we simply need to approach this new problem in a completely different way.

Listen now as I talk about what it means to approach new problems in our lives as if we’ve graduated to a new, next level and why sometimes, this has nothing to do with work skills per se, but rather this is now about entering a new game of inner management.

Let’s go.

Are you the one everyone seems to come to for support and advice, whether it’s at work or amongst your friends?

Do you find yourself exhausted by the end of the day, unable to let go of what someone shared with you earlier, and perhaps even churning your brain for a solution to help?

If so, you’re not alone.

Most Empathic Leaders I work with find themselves thinking and feeling about other people’s problems well after the work day that follows them home and even throughout the week.

Unfortunately, because there is little awareness of what is actually happening and what to do, what most often ensues is a physical, mental or emotional burden that leaves them feeling too exhausted to focus on their own personal lives.

Maybe you can relate too?

If so, you’re in luck.

Because in this week’s podcast I’m reviewing the 3 guidelines every Empathic Leader must learn in order to stop taking on other people’s problems.

You will learn the automatic...

It’s natural for our brain to think in worst case scenarios. It’s a protective mechanism that has helped us for thousands of years.

Yet, when we go over the same negative thoughts over and over again it starts to wear on us mentally, emotionally, and even physically.

We start to lose sleep, we can’t make decisions easily, and we even start to lose our patience with the people around us.

So then, what can we do to go from Problem Oriented Thinking to thinking more creatively and abundantly?

We need to do two things.

One, create awareness that our thoughts are not as logical as it appears (after all the future hasn’t happened yet)!

Two, create curiosity so that we can learn what this is REALLY about deep inside.

Let’s go.

Ever receive a response from someone, say a client or stakeholder, and it was the complete OPPOSITE of how you thought they’d respond?

And this was after spending a week of being panicked and stressed about how you might’ve needed to deal with the situation?

This is interesting because one person (you) believed this situation was stressful, whereas the other person (the stakeholder) had no idea and responded to the original email without giving it much thought.

Who was right?

What is the truth?

Was this situation actually stressful?

We’re going to look at Personalization using an example I recently witnessed and then ask ourselves a very important question so that you can use this same tool when it comes to any situation you might consider stressful.

The 3 POWERFUL SHIFTS that allow our clients to SEE...

The biggest reason why we feel stuck in a specific feeling for far too long is because of something called the Stuck Emotion Cycle.

Most people unknowingly think that they are genuinely trying to understand a feeling by THINKING about it, analyzing it over and over again, inside their brain.

But what we forget when we do this, is that feelings also live inside your body.

And because we’ve forgotten this crucial piece of information, what happens next is that we start to wonder, “What’s wrong with me? Why am I still feeling this way?”, which then induces **additional** feelings of frustration or confusion.

And what do we do with those feelings?

That’s right….

We end up going straight to our brain to do more analysis which further contributes to this Stuck Emotion Cycle.

In this episode I break this down from A-Z and by the end, you’ll know exactly what you’re missing so that you can finally break free.

Most people believe that the reason why they said, did, or didn’t do something is because of the data that is presented before them. It’s the circumstance that created the result they currently have in their lives.

But hold on a minute… if that were really true, then anyone else who is experiencing the same exact thing would have to take the exact same action and feel the exact same way, right?

Wrong.

And trust me this is good news!

The real reason why we do anything is because of a singular thought we decided to believe which then produces the quality of actions we decided to take or not take.

Listen to this mind-bendy episode as I take this even further.
