How to feel more calm and in control

When I meet other working women and ask how they want to feel, they tell me they want to feel at ease, calm, fully present, or in control. And why? Because that’s NOT how they feel right now! It’s normal, but the key to feeling better is knowing the levers to pull to get you back to a state where you feel a sense of agency and control. Where you have the ability to tap into your inner calm when you need it. Even if you’ve lost it temporarily. In this episode, you’ll discover how you can regain that sense of feeling calm and in control. I’ll show you how you can take charge of your thought patterns and beliefs to produce positive results in your life.
