We have all had moments in which we worried about our performance, fearing that we would make a mistake, face repercussions for falling short, or be perceived as incompetent. Performance anxiety can show up in many parts of our lives, including: parenting, friendships, hosting people in our home, our relationship, presentations, work, sports, school, sex, child birth, and the list goes on. The question is, how much is your performance anxiety impacting you? If you find that it is holding you back or dampening your joy in life’s moments, it may be time to make a shift!

Join us as we discuss performance anxiety, a normal but potentially life altering experience. Performance anxiety can be a double-edge sword, pushing us to prepare and practice to do our best, while also carrying the risk of preventing us from taking risks or enjoying the process. In this episode, we dive deeper into how performance anxiety can show up for each of us and simple tools to take charge of it for the long haul. Join us so you can regain power over your anxiety and live with confidence while saying good-bye to self-doubt!
