Are you a worrier? 
Do you stop yourself before you start? 
Or let rejection get the better of you?

If so, you are NOT alone...
And today's episode is definitely for you.

We're talking all things worry with worry expert Denise Marek - who not only knows all things worry, but she also shares how she pushed through rejection after rejection and massively succeeded at getting her first book published.

This conversation was more than I expected, and I can't wait for you to hear it. 

In this episode, we're talking 

• My first worry experience
• How worry can sneak up on us like a sneaky _____. (rhymes with snart)
• How Denise used visualization and manifestation before it was cool, without even realizing it (including how writing herself a CHEQUE years prior changed her confidence in a negotiation)
• Questions to ask yourself if you worry constantly 
• How to use 'CALM' to your advantage 
• How to let go of parental guilt
