Happy 2022!!!
2022 hasn't exactly started the way I wanted, nor has it for many people I know. But 2022 has already given me some gold that I must share with you all.
If you're someone who experiences anxiety from time to time or you're someone who is going through a rough patch, this episode is for you. Tune in as I share a recent anxiety filled story and what I did to help me 'go through it.'
I share 5 tips on how you can manage your own anxiety
1. label how you're feeling in the moment. Accept that is how you feel. In other words, don't run from it. "Right now, I'm having a fear thought...' etc
2. Redirect your anxious or fear thoughts by responding to them with... "I'm not going to think about that right now..." Or if you're having visual images, say..."Change the channel...." Redirect as many times as you need too but know that you're in control of how you respond to those thoughts.
3. Calm your Vagus nerve from giving yourself a high five to the heart (thanks Mel Robbins). Repeat, chant, sing the following words - "NAME, it's okay, you're safe, you're loved. 4.
4. Change your environment. Go outside. Connect in with your senses... "What's 5 things you can see, 4 things you can hear, 3 things you can touch, 2 things you can smell, 1 thing you can taste...." Move your body. Pace. Walk. Jump up and down. Create movement in your body to help regulate your emotions.
5. Turn to gratitude. Think about the outcome you want to see. Speak out loud what you want to see happen. Give thanks for the things you DO have in your life.

Are you a chronic over-thinker? Or do you analyse things to death?
If you're one of the above I'm pretty certain you'll struggle with making decisions.
In today's episode I share the top 5 things that get in your way from making a decision and give you helpful tips to get you back on track.
Here the the top 5 blockages people have when it comes to making decisions - in my opinion anyway.
1. You've forgotten the bigger picture or you may not know what the end goal is
2. Your trying to please too many people and don't listen to your own voice
3. Self Doubt and Insecurity rule you
4. You have the desire to be perfect / struggle with perfectionism
5. Or have the lack of Mentality or I'm not enough mentality

Do you suffer from mental load?
What is mental load?
The mental load is all the mental work, the organising, list-making and planning, that you do to manage your life, and that of those dependent on you. Most of us carry some form of mental load, about our work, household responsibilities, financial obligations and personal life; but what makes up that burden and how it's distributed within households is not always equal (www.abc.net.au).
Tune in as we discuss our mental load and how to decrease it in order to be more connected to life.

To find out what the hell we are going on about, you'll need to tune into this week's episode.

Every girl at one point in time has compared themselves to their sister or best friend #truth
It goes a little something like this...
I'm not smart enough, my sister is the academic one in the family
I'm not pretty enough, my best friend gets all the male attention
I'm not XYZ because my sister is XYZ
etc etc - you get our drift.
This way of thinking is a problem of the Pedestal. When we compare ourselves, we put someone else up on the pedestal and put ourselves down.
We're here to tell you that this can change. Tune is as we give 3 simple tools to stop the comparison game and start living in your best life - the life that has you acting in your power and strengths.
We are not all the same and that doesn't make us less than someone else. It just makes us different and different is good.

Empowering yourself starts with the story you tell yourself. Change your story, change your life.
Reshaping our image of ourselves can be difficult, especially when we hold such negative beliefs about ourselves.
Well we are living proof that stories can change and it starts by how you talk about yourself.
In this episode we discuss Dr. David Krueger 7 step strategy for reshaping any disempowering mental story you may have of yourself.
In case you're unable to write down the steps, here they are for you.
1. Recognise Authorship - If you're serious about improving your life you must recognise that YOU are the author of your story.
2. Be Accountable - Once you are aware of authorship you must become accountable. You have to own your story if your serious about making changes to it.
3. Assess Your Story - What is your story made up of? What are the recurring patterns of beliefs? What's the story line? Who are the characters?
4. Decide What to Change - What parts of the story do you want to change? And what parts of the story do you need to let go of?
5. Map your Changes - Everyone needs a road map to get from Point A to point B. What do you need to do to get there?
6. Start Authoring New Experiences - Create affirmations, visualizations, and real life experiences that validate your NEW STORY line.
7. Program a New Identity - Along with creating a new life story, it is CRUCIAL you create a new sense of self-image.
On another note, stay tuned to our IG stories for how you can enter the Alpha Babes Podcast Giveaway. We will draw the winner LIVE on 13th October.
