Today we’re talking about emotions, specifically anxiety. Many of us have been taught that any anxiety is bad—and we should learn how to prevent it. But what if you could learn how to harness the power of anxiety to create a better future? That’s what we’ll talk about today with Dr. Tracy Dennis Tiwary, an anxiety researcher and author of the book Future Tense. Plus, Dr, Tracy is sharing an actionable tip to help you filter what to say “yes” to this year that we can’t recommend enough!

Today’s solo episode seems very timely for a new year when there is a lot of pressure on us to set goals. I love goal-setting but in the past I have struggled with doing some when I’m in a season of my career where I feel unsure about what I want. One thing that really helped me turn my uncertainty into a strength is learning how to set process-based goals vs. outcome-based goals. I’ll explain what I mean by that and a step-by-step process you can use to gain career clarity this year.   Weekly Newsletter Sign-Up: http://bit.ly/37hqtQW Follow Career Contessa: http://bit.ly/2TMH2QP  Power Moves book: https://amzn.to/2X1EQWZ Atomic Habits book: https://bit.ly/3hqqGf4 Figure Out Your Next Career Move worksheet: https://bit.ly/39Ggv2k     Episode Perks: When you’re not feeling your best and just trying to hold it together, finding great care shouldn’t take up all of your energy.

One of our favorite things about getting toward the end of the year is looking back and recapping some of the best moments…or in this case some of the best pieces of advice we got from the guests on this show. And since we’ve published almost 50 episodes this year with hours of interview content, we thought it would be helpful to round up audio clips from a variety of episodes focused on providing advice about mental health that changed our approach from things like burnout to boundaries.

We’re talking about the new trendy phrases you’re hearing everywhere like quiet quitting, quiet firing, and now, quiet winning.
