The Happier Approach: Quieting your High Functioning Anxiety Episode 101: Positive Thinking Vs Radical Acceptance
Over the next few episodes of The Happier Approach, we’ll be taking an in-depth look at the personal growth industry just might be making your anxiety worse.
I’ll be sharing the tools and resources I use with myself and clients to quiet the cacophony of positive thinking messages that come our way on a daily basis--and listen in to our own inner peace.
Listen to the full episode to find out:
- How the self-help industry is especially dangerous for those of us with High Functioning Anxiety
- How I almost single-handedly kept her local Borders afloat (spoiler: I didn’t)
- Why “radical acceptance” changed everything for me--but what I had to do first before I could fully accept myself (you can start this today)
- Why leaning into your value for loyalty is the key to building a new relationship with yourself and your anxiety
Some of the research and resources mentioned in this episode:
- The Science Daily research study
- Tara Brach’s book, Radical Acceptance
- And Tara Brach herself
- Nancy’s books on living with High Functioning Anxiety
- And where you can work one-on-one with Nancy
The solutions the personal growth industry sells leave women living with hidden anxiety--women like you--with more stuff to be anxious about. Even worse, it can turn you off from getting help completely.
I want to help you dial back the overwhelm and overthinking with a set of tools designed just for people like you. It’s not woo-woo. It’s not trying to positively think your challenges away. And I’m certainly not going to tell you to start living your best life.
I work one-on-one with women like you to deconstruct why anxiety creeps up on you and give you something to do about it. Click here to learn more about working with me through on-demand coaching!
