There is something that we all face at one time or another – anxiety, loss of equilibrium, how do we find the resilience to ride through life's rollercoasters?  It has been a tough week. How are you holding up in these wildly unpredictable times? Well, you're not alone, and that's exactly what we’re chatting about right here.

We've been living in what's often called "unprecedented times", and it’s left many of us feeling a bit off-kilter. Whether it's global news that feels beyond our control or personal struggles closer to home, the trick is defining where our influence lies. Using Stephen Covey's principle of the "Circle of Influence and Circle of Concern", we take a closer look at focusing our energy where it counts the most.

We also touch on practical, everyday techniques to maintain your cool. It could be as simple as avoiding constant news bombardment, practising mindfulness, or grounding yourself in the present.  In short, there are small, everyday actions that can make a difference.

We wrap it up by discussing the potential that change – even when unwelcome – can bring new opportunities. There's a kind of peace in realizing that we're all in this soup together, sharing the journey and perhaps nudging the world a little closer to where we’d like it to be.
