Finding Calm In Chaos: How to Overcome Media Hype and Overwhelm

by | Apr 3, 2024 | Podcasts

If you’re ready to overcome media hype, you’re in the right place. Media is a business architecting messages of chaos and dishing them up 24/7. Hype saturation is contributing to our mental health crisis but chaos, stress, and overwhelm don’t have to be our reality. We can thrive- together.

This week, we’re talking about how to find calm in the chaos, ditch the overwhelm and take charge of our reality with three human  “power tools”-  mindfulness, intuition, and mirror neurons. It’s my hope that you will leave this episode a little wiser, feeling empowered, and reminded of how awesome it is to be a human.

Deep gratitude to…

@sherylcrow for her beautiful quote that kick started my thinking for this podcast, to Jon Kabat-Zinn for his immense body of work in the field of mindfulness, and to all of the phenomenal humans who are dedicating their lives to researching neuroscience, consciousness, and our incredible human potential.

If you’re ready to develop a mindset of confidence and clarity that will help you live your best life, I’d love to meet you. Send me a note  and tell me what’s on your mind. Let’s explore what’s possible for your life through mindfulness based life coaching. ❤️
