Facing Your Fears, the Power of Perspective, + Why We Self-Sabotage with Monica Berg

Looking Up with Dr. Deepika Chopra

"You have to create your to-be list before your to-do list," our guest on this week's episode of Looking Up, Monica Berg says. Inspiring, thoughtful, wise, and fearless, this week's conversation is all about what we spend our energy on, facing our fears, and how powerful mindset shifts can be. Monica has such a way with words, and she expertly walked us through the different types of stress, how we can't control our situations but we can control our perceptions of them, and how we stay fully present when things are good- all topics that intersect with my research and work as the Optimism Doctor. Her insights on change, loss, growth, fear, and her riding shotgun analogy all make this an episode you're not going to want to miss a second of! We got pretty candid about being more fully present in moments of joy, the important lessons change can bring us throughout life, and dove into what it actually means to face our fears head-on. I was inspired, uplifted, challenged, and championed through this conversation and I cannot wait to hear what you've learned from her! Enjoy this episode and remember, Things Are Looking Up!
