Amber Rae: Choose Wonder Over Worry (Episode 193)
Topics We Explored:
- Why we tend to live in a state of worry, and how we can transition to living with wonder and at the same time engage with those worries to better serve us
- How you can figure out what your priorities are when you keep telling yourself that you “don’t have enough time,” and how to differentiate between your aspirations and your priorities
- How you can stop trying to make your naysayers happy and start to focus on the majority of people who support you — including yourself
- What you can do to shift your focus from succeeding or failing to enjoying the journey of learning and growing
“When we can recognize that we’re meaning-making machines, we’re story-making machines, then we can craft narratives that support us, and that’s when we can get to our truth.” — Amber Rae
