overcoming stress

In this episode, I share what to do when it feels like nothing is working in your caregiver life because these times are tough when you are the primary caregiver and feel alone and like you're the only one dealing with hard times.  I share my approach that helps me and my clients navigate the tough times and come out stronger on the other side.   I share my step-by-step process (which includes 7 questions to ask yourself) for assessing the stressful situation and creating a focused and intentional plan to move forward.  All along the way we also check in with your mental health to ensure that you're taking care of yourself as well as your loved done.  

Takeaways:  You are not alone in experiencing challenges in your caregiver life.  Caregiving is hard and it will have it's ups and downs.  Stop being so hard on yourself.  You are doing the best you can.  So grant yourself grace.  Assess the situation by pausing, checking in on yourself and identifying your stress.  Focus on what you can control and take intentional action.  find accountability and support to focus and navigate your tough seasons.  Remember the lessons learned from tough seasons for future challenges and to become a better you.

This week’s guest is Portia Asli, a licensed engineer and founder of Optimyzed Brain. She helps entrepreneurs optimize their brains for high-performance using a science-based method that supports people to prioritize their brain health and empower them with actionable ways to increase their mental performance for success in business.   

 Founding Optimyzed Brain Portia  went from a small offline consulting practice to building and launching a global-based business during the pandemic, helping company leaders optimize their brain health for peak mental performance, engineering a step-by-step science-based system that improves sleep, energy levels, concentration, focus, and mental clarity, less work hours and more more quality time.

Portia emigrated at the age of 10 with her family from Iran to Canada. Hard-working immigrant parents role modelled strong work ethics in her  but also being a woman immigrant in North America provided the freedom that didn't exist in Iran and this was the motivation to seize the opportunity to travel, explore and discover how she could create a positive global impact  

She went to a top University and worked hard but burn out and depression during her rigorous engineering studies began a 15-year journey of studying how our lifestyle and behaviour impacts our brain performance. 

Now she helps driven senior leaders to achieve great heights by helping them optimize their brains for peak mental performance through science-based micro behavioural and lifestyle improvements. 

 When striving for success brain health & mental performance can take the back seat.  This can show up as stress, anxiety, overwhelm, brain fog, exhaustion, imposter syndrome, insomnia, procrastination, and low self-confidence. She is helping senior leaders improve their sleep, and nutrition, reduce stress and anxiety, enhance mental clarity and focus in less than five weeks.  

Thanks Portia for sharing how you have developed ways to help people to optimise their own natural abilities so that they can be their most effective, productive and happy. And also for showing us that we can find ways to optimise our brain so we aren’t running on empty but instead, living and working in a balanced and fruitful way.

Are you living your life in a constant state of stress, anxiety and self-doubt? Have you tried everything to change your life, but nothing has worked? Meet Karen Armstrong, Mindset + Emotion Life Coach of Find Peace Now.

Karen says, “You can't change what you're not aware of, unless you remove the root cause.”

On average, humans have between 50,000 and 70,000 thoughts a day, and most people are aware of a tiny fraction of them. 90% to 95% of what we think is at a subconscious unconscious level.

Karen’s life’s work is to help others identify and remove the root causes of what has been draining their energy and holding them back. Therefore, they can experience permanent change and find peace now. You have to dig into that subconscious and unconscious part of your mind. Karen is your tour guide.

We have had lengthy conversations with Karen and are so impressed with her process, approach, training and abilities -- not to mention her passion and commitment to help people heal and live their most peaceful and fulfilling lives.

Our conversation, which was taped on June 29, 2022, ended up being extremely timely (no surprise Universe!) with the events that took place in Robyn's hometown of Highland Park, IL on July 4, 2022. 

For more about Karen Armstrong, or to learn about her mindset and emotional life coach practice visit www.findpeacenow.com. Karen also offers an introductory call for anyone interested in working with her.

Listen now. 

In this episode, we cover: 
-Hypnotherapy
-BWRT: BrainWorking Recursive Therapy
-Overcoming anxiety
-The subconscious

What do you do when you are in a funk, super overstressed, and are stuck in this bad space? 

Affirmations are a self-help strategy used to prompt self-confidence and belief in your own abilities.  They're positive statements that can help you to challenge and overcome self-sabotaging  and negative thoughts. When you repeat them often, and believe in them, you can start to make positive changes.

Affirmation can help you shift your mindset.  Help you believe yourself even when you are fearful or have failed.   

Neuroplasticity, or your brain’s ability to change and adapt to different circumstances throughout your life, offers a clue to help understand not only what makes affirmations work, but how to make them more effective.

Your brain sometimes gets a little mixed up on the difference between reality and imagination, which can be surprisingly useful.

Creating a mental image of yourself doing something activates many of the same brain areas that actually experiencing these situations would.

Regular repetition of affirming statements about yourself can encourage your brain to take these positive affirmations as fact. When you truly believe you can do something, your actions often follow.

Using affirmation before any event, may help you feel more relaxed and help you avoid those negative thoughts or doubts that enter your mind.  

There are many ways to put affirmations into your daily habits.  Repeating an affirmation can help boost your motivation and confidence, but you still have to take some action yourself. Try thinking of affirmations as a step toward change, not the change itself.

Affirmation practices you can use: 

• Affirmations with Visualization . 
•  Affirmations help setting personal goals . 
• Journaling Gratitude with affirmation
•  Find a quiet spot and journal "I am….".   
•  Morning or evening routines
• Add in activity with your affirmations  

Trouble using positive affirmations?   It’s a learned practice.  

• Do NOT force yourself to think positively. Allow negative thoughts to flow 
• Embrace your negative thoughts. Breathe deeply and listen to your negative thoughts 
• Reframe your past. Ask yourself, What has this experience taught me? 
• Be patient.  Changing your mindset takes time and practice.
• Reach out for support. 

The life of a caregiver is one of constant ups and downs, with no two days alike. It’s a life filled with struggles, as well as triumphs.  Unfortunately, being a caregiver is oftentimes a thankless job. A caregiver’s life revolves around this role, with little attention paid to his or her own mental health and wellbeing. With so much to attend to, it’s easy to understand how negative thoughts, doubts, or frustration creep in.

It's important to reflect and show gratitude for yourself. A first step involves converting negative thinking into pos

It’s hard for people to break the habit of being themselves, make a change, and level up into a new identity. And it’s even harder when you view and hold them to the identity they’re trying to break out of.

In this episode, we’ll be reviewing: 

• How you may be getting in the way of someone’s personal development, and subconsciously discouraging their growth (we all do this!). 
• A concept called Mind Maps, which will give us insight to the power of our beliefs and why we pigeonhole people to the identity they’re trying to break out of. 
•  5 steps that will help you break out of the habit of boxing someone, and into the habit of empowerment — empower someone to become better and step into a new identity. 

If information isn’t enough to drive you to action and empowerment, and you require extra support in managing your voice judgement and your inner critic, you’re invited to join a Stanford University Master's Degree Mindset Group Coaching program, which launches on 9/13/21,

Whether you’re in the middle of a job transition, a life transition, or simply stuck in one area of your life, this course is filled with practical tools and powerful techniques that will ignite self discovery, awaken personal insight, and empower you to step fully into the life you desire. 

In this course, you’ll have the opportunity to learn how to: 

• Create a new relationship with time...one that eliminates stress
• Silence your inner critic and get out of your own way
• Increase your self-discovery  and cultivate your intuition so you can trust yourself more

In this podcast, we’re reviewing how to be happy (how to live that good good life!) and the impact of happiness in the workplace!

According to Shawn Achor, a Harvard grad and psychologist who studied the science behind happiness and success, he found that the formula to happiness is the opposite of what most society believes and knows. It’s our positivity level in the present, which has a direct correlation to our happiness and success, and has us experience what is called he calls, the Happiness Advantage. 

 When the Happiness Advantage is applied to an organization, the company experiences: 

●       Superior productivity

●       More resilience

●       Less burnout

●       Less turnover

●       Greater sales

Tune into this podcast to get the full formula to happiness and success, and learn what you can start doing TODAY to rewire your brain and help you work more optimistically and successfully!

Are you a high achiever which craves feedback, but has a hard time hearing it?

Whether the feedback is from a trusted source, is wrapped in a bow, or is presented in a feedback sandwich, does it still sting for you?

And how do you respond to feedback? Are you a fighter or a flighter?

Effective communication or lack of can make or break your business. And a big part of communication being effective depends on how business leaders show up to the conversation.  Leaders have influence. 

That said, in this podcast, we'll be reviewing the "how", and sharing 4 steps to Appreciative Communication. 

Here's a hint: 

1. Validate the other person’s perspective. 
2. Get specific
3.  Empathize
4. Close the loop

Enjoy!
