213: My Top Tips for Leading With Calm (Even When You Feel Anxious)

How do you stay grounded when everything feels like too much? In this episode, I walk you through the internal and external factors that tend to trigger a stress response, and how to shift into a more centered, responsive state. From understanding your baseline wiring and physiological cues to reconnecting with your values and priorities, I share a framework that helps me move from reactivity into choice.    If you’ve ever walked away from a situation wishing you had handled it differently, this episode will help you build the awareness and tools to respond with greater clarity and confidence next time. This is a skill you can develop. And the more you practice it, the more grounded you’ll feel, no matter what’s happening around you.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://thejoyfulpractice.com/213   Learn more and register for the Leadership for Women Lawyers Group Coaching and Mastermind (July to December 2025): https://www.uplevelcpd.com/courses/july-to-december-2025-leadership-for-women-lawyers-group-coaching-and-mastermind-experience   Register for the upcoming webinar, "2025 Mid-Year Reset: Evaluate, Recalibrate and Recharge" on Thursday, June 26, 2025: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_SZ0VsgD0QjySv_mbu9WI3w
