Whatever loss or unexpected life change you might be going through right now - remember you are stronger than your worst fear. Often we tell ourselves, we won't survive. We can't do it. We won't make it. But if you're listening to this, you are doing it. You are so much stronger than you think you are. In this episode I share with you a short story on surviving my worst fear. And you are doing it too.

A lot of us worry or fret about what might happen in the future. We try to figure out in our heads how we'll get through it.

Here's the thing we can't think our way through a future fear. We have no idea where we'll be, what our circumstances will be like or even if it will come to fruition.

In today's episode, I share about something that happened this morning, something I've worried about for years. And guess what: all the worrying did NOTHING to prepare me for the actual experience. And yes, it was a lot scarier in my head.

If you have your own experience, I'd love if you'd share it with me. You can reach me on Instagram here. Of course if you have questions or comments, you can also contact me at that same link.

What are you fretting about that won't matter tonight or even later today?

In the moment. it's so hard to decipher. It feels like it will matter always. Some things naturally work themselves out, e.g. worrying about being late to a meeting or why someone isn't responding to our message. But other times, we stay so attached to the worry or concern that it's still with us for hours, days or even weeks later.

An emotion only lasts 90 seconds—I know that seems impossible. It's our thoughts and stories that extend the feeling.

In today's episode I share a story that demonstrates this. I also share a funny story of what happened when I was seeking to shorten this episode's title. And finally, you'll learn 3 practices to help calm that overthinking.
