How to Banish Your Anxiety + Stop Future Tripping with Stephanie Catalano of Mindful Living
I don't know about you, but I am guilty of what I refer to as, "future tripping." This is where you start to think WAY too much about the future, and almost obsess about things that haven't even happened yet - or may never happen! Future tripping can cause anxiety, because we take ourselves out of the moment. I find I'm much more at peace, much more creative, much more focused, and much more powerful when I can just be in the NOW. When I can be mindful of the present moment and truly sink into that. I have a very special guest today that I'm so excited to share with you. We are going to dig into this topic, as well as so many other aspects of mindfulness and what it looks like to feel more present, so that you can create the life of your dreams. Stephanie Catalano earned a Master’s-Degree and is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Life Coach, and Author. Stephanie founded Mindful Living, a community she created to empower women on their individual journey to living a happy, fulfilled life of their dreams. Stephanie believes everyone has a transformational story inside of them and she helps women own their story and step into their power. She is all about helping you overcome any barriers, blocks, or beliefs that have held you back so that you can move forward in your life, turn your dreams into reality, feel good, and live your life on purpose, with purpose.
