Strong emotions like anxiety, anger, and sadness can sometimes derail us. In this episode, the Happy Wanderers interview Shawn Elliot Russell, who developed crippling anxiety that almost forced him to abandon his dream to create and perform positive hip-hop. He shares a process he developed through years of exploration and experimentation that enabled him to escape his anxiety, which can be used to weather other emotional storms like sadness and embarrassment.
Today, Shawn is living his dream, touring as a hip-hop artist, author, and public speaker (he will be speaking at TEDxMcAllen in Nov 2019!). His picture book, “Be Still, Little Tree, Be Still," is about dealing with difficult emotions by planting your roots and letting the storm pass.
