Worrying is a waste of time.  There, I said it.  It’s true!  While it’s perfectly normal to worry, the reality is it’s not accomplishing anything beneficial. There's a cost to it with no reward. That's because worrying doesn’t 𝓹𝓻𝓮𝓿𝓮𝓷𝓽 a thing.  No, it’s not preparing you for what ‘might’ happen.  No, it’s not helping you find a solution.  No, it doesn’t mean you ‘care’.

There’s a big difference between problem solving and worrying.  With problem solving, there’s an actual problem you can solve. Worrying is more about a potential problem that may or may not happen that you may or may not have the ability to do anything about.  It’s a solution in search of a problem.

Worrying has you playing out umpteen million different scenarios in your head that will never take place.  Just because you focus on the worst case scenario doesn’t mean you prevent bad things from ever happening.  It just means you get to experience the worst case scenario in your mind over and over and over again.  #Notfun

Now, I’m not here to beat up on you.  I’m here to help you. I hope to shift your perspective a bit and create compassion for why you worry but also show you why it doesn’t help.  In my podcast this week I take a look at why you worry.  What you think you’re getting from it but what you’re actually getting instead.  Then I walk you through three ways you can wrangle your worry and quiet that chatter in your brain to finally get some relief.  I hope you’ll join me.

About The Host:

For nearly two decades of her life, Pamela Hughes had a microphone in front of her face. After graduating from Arizona State University with a degree in broadcast journalism, she started her news career with a brief stint in western Wisconsin before making her way back to the Grand Canyon State.  In Phoenix, Pamela quickly climbed the newsroom ladder and started teaching the next generation of journalists at ASU.  She knows what it’s like to chase the big story as a journalist, inform an audience as an anchor, and oversee an entire operation as a news director.  She spent the final six years of her news career as the only female talk show host in Phoenix.

While Pamela loved connecting with her audience and bringing them the big stories of the day,  the grind and negativity of the news cycle took its toll.  In an effort to help navigate the growing emotional demands of her high profile career, the desire to be an exceptional mom and a great wife, Pamela got a Life Coach.   That one decision changed her life.

Her coach helped her discover the hidden power of thoughts.  She started to manage her mind and was amazed at how that transformed her life.  Pamela decided to quit telling people what was wrong in the world and started to help people discover what was right within their own world.

Now, Pamela  helps people take back their power to create the life they once envisioned for themselves. Her primary focus is on creating an awareness of how you're thinking so you can create the results you want. Whether you're are stuck in life or their career, she can help you finally take the action you've been putting off.
