"I feel like a failure."
(5 minutes)
At times, we can be our own worst critics. Even when we're being asked to shoulder a super-human amount of responsibility, we still hold ourselves to a brutally high standard...and we're not very nice to ourselves when we don't achieve it.
The antidote is simple, yet powerful: self-compassion.
As it turns out, self-compassion isn't just a buzz-word. There is a proven framework that you can follow to tame that inner critic and become your own best friend.
This video will show you how.
"I'm worried."
(3 minutes)
Feelings of worry and anxiety are so natural and normal, especially when you deeply care about an outcome. You want things to turn out ok, but you have no way of knowing what the future truly holds...and you end up feeling anxious.
In an attempt to keep us safe, our minds naturally try to become fortune-tellers.
They try to predict and anticipate what is to come, even when the future is unknowable.
Fortunately, we can teach our minds to focus on the facts and to intentionally direct energy and attention toward what matters and what is inside of your control.

"I'm feeling overwhelmed."
(6 minutes)
When life feels overwhelming, our minds immediately kick in and create thoughts and feelings that stir the pot and add to the chaos.
What we don't realize is that our actions can serve as a powerful moderator of our thoughts and feelings. By focusing on how we behave, specifically how intentionally and methodically we move, we can reduce our feelings of overwhelm by tapping into our brain's natural feedback loop.
