Episode 113: World Events, Stress & Your Ambition — How They Go Together
How in the world are we supposed to keep on keepin’ on when it feels like the world has gone off the rails (again)?
It’s really easy to slip into the mode where you consume all the media — social and traditional — to keep up with every second of every event, all day long.
But it’s not good for your state of mind.
Should you stay informed and know what’s going on? Absolutely. And you can do that in a way that supports your personal growth and the growth of your business.
There are so many stressors on all of us right now: stressors like the larger world events that are shaping how we see our future, and the more personal stressors, like when my daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes last month.
This life stuff is hard. And life is going to keep on “life-ing” whether we want it to or not.
In today’s episode, which is a little bit different from my usual episodes, I share a few small, simple steps we can all take daily to keep our heads on straight when “life happens.”
I also just wanted to remind everyone — myself included — that these moments expose our humanity, and our humanity is something we can’t ever leave behind. No matter what we do for a living, nothing can cause us to transcend our humanity.
So, this week, as you continue to take better care of yourself (yes, you — take care of you; you are real and have real needs), reach out to others who may need a little TLC, too. We’re all going through something, and it’s OK to give each other a little bit of room to be human right now.
I talked about this in a recent episode of Sarah Uncut, which you can see here.
I hope this one gives you a little bit of TLC this week, too.
xo,
Sarah
