283: How to Calm Anxiety & Stress When Life Feels Like Too Much with Connie Habash

We spend so much of our lives rushing from one thing to the next that we forget what it feels like to simply be here. Thinking about what happened. Worrying about what’s coming. Checking our phones, answering messages, carrying a hundred things at once. And eventually we feel it — stressed, anxious, and strangely disconnected from ourselves. In this episode I talk with Rev. Connie L. Habash, a licensed marriage and family therapist and author of Awakening from Anxiety, about how time in nature can calm your nervous system and bring you back into your body.Together we explore how nature slows you down, quiets the noise you’ve stopped noticing, and becomes a practice you’ll actually keep.

Veteran journalist Korina Sanchez heard about her success and without hesitation, she was given the permit to handle her own product, K Magic Cream. Brilliant Skin faced its biggest challenge last year when Glenda and her family, together with a few employees got infected with COVID-19. Their operations were deeply affected as they had to close their factories for two weeks. During this time of crisis, Miss Glenda proved her leadership skills. They had to do major alterations in order to continue the operation of their business. Instead of focusing to their sales, they paid more attention to the well-being of their employees. Being a boss and a leader prevailed. Glenda was featured in MVP Bossing Campaign which PLDT launched with the vision of celebrating accomplished stories and highlighting entrepreneurs. Gawad Amerika in Hollywood also recognized her as the Youngest Filipino CEO in the Field of Cosmetics and Skin Care in 2018.
