    Quit the Anxiety Cycle & Unlock Your Potential: A 15-Minute Method #013

    Tired of feeling stuck in patterns you can't seem to break? This week, we're diving deep into the hidden forces that drive our actions and shape our beliefs. Ever wonder why you keep doing things you swore you'd stop? You're not alone, and the answer might be simpler than you think. Whether you're battling workplace anxiety, struggling with self-worth, or just feeling out of sync with your true desires, these 2 powerful methods will help you peel back the layers of your psyche and discover what's really holding you back. Imagine being able to finally understand why you do what you do, and more importantly, how to change it. This isn't just another self-help episode – it's a practical, no-nonsense guide to rewiring your brain and transforming your life. Let's dive in and discover the real you hiding beneath the surface. Expect to hear... How understanding the root causes of our behaviors can lead to transformative change in various aspects of life, including money, health, work, and creativity. The Five Whys technique, originally developed by Toyota, can be a powerful tool for uncovering the underlying reasons for our actions and feelings. Byron Katie's "The Work" exercise provides a structured approach to challenging our beliefs and understanding how they affect our emotions and behaviors. How childhood experiences and parental influences often shape our current beliefs and behaviors, especially in areas like work anxiety and self-worth. Why self-inquiry is key to increase emotional regulation and help us detach from beliefs that no longer serve us, leading to a calmer and more focused life. That resistance to self-inquiry is normal, but it's important to acknowledge and move past it to achieve personal growth and change. And how self-compassion is crucial throughout the process of self-inquiry and change. Treat yourself with the same kindness you would offer a close friend. 🔗 LINKS: 🔮 Coaching: https://www.itsbekahdonovan.com/services 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsbekahdonovan/

    Are You Doing Too Much? How Doing LESS Can Get You Further, Faster #012

    This week, we're exploring if you are putting too much pressure on yourself to progress. Is doing MORE really going to get you to where you want to be? Or is it actually slowing you down? Doing LESS and releasing the pressure of progress in order to make progress may seem counterintuitive, but I think it might be just the trick to get the ball rolling for you. Let's dive in! [00:00] START [02:30] The overwhelming amount of progress content available and its impact. [05:45] Becoming conscious and aware of the intention behind your actions. [09:15] The balance between seeking self-help content and feeling overwhelmed. [12:30] Reflecting on the type of content that genuinely helps vs. adding to the noise. [15:50] The pressure of progress and doomscrolling for answers. [18:20] Enjoying the process of progress vs. feeling pressured to progress. [22:10] Understanding our biology vs. the modern world's demands. [25:40] Accepting that we are not built for the current fast-paced world. [28:30] Giving yourself grace for doing your best. [31:15] Asking yourself what you are willing to stop doing for the life you want. [35:00] The impact of toxic relationships on progress and well-being. [39:50] Embracing less to achieve more and avoid burnout. [43:30] Taking a hard look at your commitments and responsibilities. [47:20] The importance of facing conflict and making tough decisions. [50:00] Realizing the long-term impact of negative influences on your life. [53:10] Encouraging a genuine, enjoyable progress journey. [56:40] Reflecting on what you need to give up for the life you want. [59:50] The importance of professional support if you're struggling. [01:03:30] Setting yourself up for an enjoyable journey by doing less. 🔗 LINKS: 🔮 Coaching: https://www.itsbekahdonovan.com/services 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsbekahdonovan/
