Leveraging Strengths to Overcome Anxiety

In this episode of the Saddle Up Live, host Lesa Koski and Coach Tracy discuss how to leverage personal strengths to overcome anxiety and obstacles. The host shares a personal story about dealing with anxiety related to a health scare while traveling in Arizona, emphasizing the work they did using a planner recommended by Tracy, available on Amazon and the Self Made You website. They delve into strategies for managing 'mind monkeys' or intrusive thoughts, especially at night, and the importance of choosing how one wants to feel, eliminating saboteurs, and leveraging strengths such as empathy, discovery, and innovation. The host reflects on their process of self-coaching and the benefits of asking 'why' to make decisions rooted in personal conviction. Tracy explains how operating from the 'prodigy brain' as opposed to the fear-based 'primitive brain' allows access to strengths that aid in overcoming anxiety. The episode touches on navigating life challenges with wisdom and looks forward to discussing the strength of activation in the next segment.
