Anxiety is an ongoing battle that happens right inside your mind.
Your mind becomes this never-ending movie reel of worst-case scenarios, and it just keeps on playing.
When we're stuck with anxious thoughts, we want to find an escape.
Today, singer and songwriter Reneé Rapp, known for her role of Regina George in the Tony-nominated Mean Girls musical on Broadway, sits down with me to share her incredible journey.
Reneé and I offer insights on how to prepare oneself mentally and emotionally for the inevitable disappointments that life may bring, the insidious nature of self-criticism and its far-reaching effects, and the art of expressing vulnerability without fearing miscommunication.
Self-doubt can be a formidable obstacle to pursuing one's passions. We will also explore the strategies to confront and overcome self-doubt and overcome the role of being one's own harshest critic.
In this interview, you will learn:
- How to understand perception and well-being
- How to prepare for future disappointment
- How to be less self-critical
- How to manage your inner voice
- How to express insecurities effectively
- How to stay resilient in challenging situations
Together, let us transform uncertainties into positivity and look forward to reshaping our mindset.
With Love and Gratitude,
Jay Shetty
