We are traveling through life addicted to anxiety or prone to paralysis. Eventually, these ways of coping fail us and those around us. So, how can we come to see our breakdowns as opportunities for our breakthroughs? It begins with taking the journey towards self-awareness. This new Know Thyself series is your step-by-step guide to discover how to pause, observe, and pivot so that you can respond to life’s curveballs with intention instead of reacting with anxiety or paralysis. I will share with you all the tools, tests, and people who have helped me along my own journey. You will walk away with the ability to step out of your own experience, observe your feelings, and, with compassionate curiosity, choose how to respond instead of react. Sound like freedom? Let’s go!
