Shameless Leadership

578: How to Calm the Chaos & Clutter in Your Head


Listen Later

The chaos & clutter are real. Not just in our homes, but in our heads, my friends. 

As we continue to navigate the most challenging and relentless season of most of our lives, it is easy to let our minds get the best of us. 

The overwhelm is real. The fear is palpable. The stress is justified. 

It is in these moments that our minds tend to run away without our permission. We go to worst case scenarios. We write stories with horrific endings. We let all our wiring go haywire as we imagine how bad things could get.

As I’ve been on coaching calls with clients over the last couple weeks, we have been working on calming the mental chaos & clutter. Because, even under the hardest circumstances, you get to choose how you manage your thoughts and how you see your position of power in sticky (if not terrifying) situations.

In today’s episode, I’ll walk you through 6 questions to ask yourself in order to calm the chaos and clear the clutter in your head. This will allow you to create space for “what is true and what is beautiful” (as Glennon Doyle teaches us) in those moments that are keeping you stuck in overwhelm right now.
