Combat Fear and Doom With Ninja Self-Distraction Skills — How to Notice the Good Stuff Again
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Sick of the fear and doom-mongering? Me too.
This episode is my antidote. Not toxic positivity, not pretending everything is fine — but practical ninja self-distraction skills to help you balance out the noise and notice the good stuff that is always around you, even when your mind is stuck in survival mode.
- why constant fear and doom activates survival mode and hides everything good
- the difference between healthy awareness and unhealthy doom consumption
- ninja self-distraction skills that actually work
- how to train your attention back towards what's real and good
- why noticing the good stuff isn't naive — it's rebellious
For anyone whose nervous system is exhausted from the endless noise — and is ready for a different kind of input.
This podcast was created to help big-hearted, driven professionals break free from overwhelm and experience more clarity, ease and joy.
