196. What Not to Do When Life Gets Chaotic


Listen Later

No matter how hard we try to control all the circumstances of our lives, eventually, things get a little out of control.

Your boss increases your workload, the kids are riddled with extracurricular activities (which means you are too), aging family members need constant care, and you start to feel overwhelmed with everything.

Stress and anxiety levels increase until you’re sitting at DEFCON 1 and ready to explode.

How you handle yourself during these times of intense stress is extremely important.

Everyone’s good at stress management when there’s no stress!

But when life gets hectic and feels overwhelming, that’s when you need to double down on self-care.

Today, I’m sharing some very helpful advice on what NOT to do when life gets chaotic, and what you should do instead.
