Are you constantly aiming for perfection, pushing yourself to the edge, and wondering why you always feel on the brink of burnout? Join me as I delve deep into my personal journey from being a certified control freak and perfectionist to finally hitting a painful realization and finding the path to a healthier mindset. From bouts of negativity, anxiety, depression, to the overwhelming sensation of not being "enough," I've experienced it all.

In this video, I passionately unravel the complexities of our mindset, drawing on my own experiences and struggles. Learn about the power of metacognition, the importance of thinking about your own thoughts, and how these unchecked thoughts can often spiral us into self-doubt and negativity. I'll break down my recommended four-step process, with the first essential step being awareness. If you've been blind to your blind spots, it's time to change that narrative.

Whether you're a leader at work, at home, or in your community, recognizing when you need help, when to pause and reassess, is crucial. In our world of hustle culture, sometimes the bravest thing to do is admit you need to step back. I discuss the significance of emotional regulation and the need to differentiate between feelings and identity, emphasizing that it's okay not to be okay.

Dive into some actionable advice, from writing down your thoughts to challenging and reframing them. Embrace the concept of "emotions as energy in motion" and why we need to allow them to pass through us, instead of suppressing them.
