3 Simple Steps to Transform Your Anxiety into Power w/ Dr Luana Marques
Dr Luana Marques is a Harvard-based psychotherapist, researcher, speaker and author of: “Bold Move: A 3 Step Plan to Transform Anxiety into Power”. In this episode, we discuss her science-backed method to get you out of a rut and find the courage to create a more confident and meaningful life. And that very something that is keeping you stuck and silently killing your dreams is AVOIDANCE. Procrastination. Constant researching & planning without execution. Walking away from discomfort which only makes you more anxious. The path forward is to APPROACH not AVOID!
If you are someone who has anxious tendencies and may be struggling with overwhelm, stress and anxiety, this is without question the episode you need to listen to!
We also discuss Dr Luana’s starting over story, being raised in adversity & poverty in Brazil and climbing the ranks of an Ivy institution all the while staying grounded & down-to-earth.
