Becoming, almost, friends with my anxiety
As much as I advocate for rest and balance, sometimes life doesn't go as planned. Or maybe, I over planned and should have left some blank space in my calendar! I had an epic week last week, but I over-peopled, and maybe overdid it on work a little bit. Yet, at the same time I gave two amazing workshops and launched a group coaching program. Which is why I took a nap on Saturday!
I also had quite a bit of anxiety last week and yet, I did the thing. I taught a workshop with Creative Mornings Field Trips (highly recommend you check out their offerings) and it was the most people I've ever had at a workshop. By the end I was elated and exhausted. I felt the anxiety, and kept going through it. I felt like I was able to use that adrenaline and be more up beat and focused, while presenting and navigating the chat, while on zoom. It was a lot!
I was really thinking this week about how I tend to jump and build the net as I go. I'm pretty high functioning individual, but I live with anxiety and depression. The book Good Anxiety: Harnessing the Power of the Most Misunderstood Emotion, really helped me see how anxiety is an indicator that I'm about to do something kind of scary, or out of my comfort zone. It can be a yellow flag, saying caution, not necessarily stop. This is very different from anxiety due to trauma, or anxiety that causes panic attacks. I've built that 'jump' muscle up over the years and steadily tried new and different things. Some of them I've failed at, but honestly, even then, I was grateful for the learning experience.
Sometimes though life is overwhelming and it's hard to push through, which is why I've built a group coaching program called 'How to get sh*t done while overwhelmed and anxious'. It's a three month program that includes:
An individual life coaching session with me to help you get clear on what you want to be focusing on in your life
Bi-weekly group coaching
A micro-course that will be rolled out to you weekly
Weekly accountability that is tailored to your accountability style
A Discord channel for all of us to help each other
Monthly co-working sessions to get together and get sh*t done. You can work on a personal project or a work project.
This program is built with you in mind. You may love weekly emails, but hate the idea of showing up for a coaching session. You may hate emails, but love chatting with people on discord (kind of like a facebook group). You can choose your own adventure and still get the support and information that you need in order to succeed.
This program is built for people who are struggling to get sh*t done. You may have a big project or a passion project, or simply need support with day-to-day life.
The commitment is only three months, and at a special introductory offer of $57 per month. If you need a discounted rate or a longer payment plan, please let me know, it's available to everyone.
Get the help and support you need today and sign up now.
Plus!! The first five people who sign up also receive two additional hours of coaching with me (a $400 value). There's only two left, so sign up now.
