Last week I finally had some new pictures taken to use on my website and in my social media posts. I had been wanting to do this for a long time but always found an excuse not to get the pictures done.  I'm so glad I went but let me tell you, I was nervous!

I did the full spectrum of anxious thinking.
I overthought what to wear and how to be, shopping, Googling and changing clothes for hours.
I kept wondering what I looked like or what other people would think.
I criticized myself because I don't look 17 anymore and pictured my face looking like Quasimodo.
And made myself more awkward by shaming myself for not knowing how to pose or where the heck to put my arms.

All of that worrying and I love my new photos and had so much fun!

In this episode, I'm showing how jumping into something as simple as a photo shoot can bring up all the anxious feelings and reactions, have you repeating  negative things you say or think about yourself, and how you can let go and HAVE  FUN, even when you feel awkward and uncomfortable.

And, when you pay attention to how you handle the little things that make you feel anxious, you have a better handle on how to deal with the bigger situations that cause bigger anxiety because you handle them the same way.
