Discover How Stress Can Give You the Determination to Live Full Out

Season 3, Episode 14: The Living Full Out Show with Nancy Solari reveals that changing the outlook on a stressful situation can positively influence your ability to manage them. When you hold your obligations on a pedestal, they can often cause you to be excessively worried. By bringing balance and taking control of life, you will be able to thoroughly enjoy these moments. Our first caller, Donna, asks Nancy how she can improve the quality of her life after realizing that it’s better to have less material possessions. Nancy reminds her that we should cherish the moments we have with people and personal time. She also suggests spending her money on vacations and experiences, rather than frivolous things. Our second caller, Serena, is stressed about classes that are taking a toll on her well-being and GPA. Nancy advises that deadlines are always present in life, and that they may overwhelm her if she gives them too much power. Tune in hear how Nancy encourages her to take more control over these negative emotions through balancing her commitments and setting a time parameter to worry. Our inspirational guest, filmmaker David Hoffman, lost his home and worldly possessions to a fire in 2008. He shares with us his mother’s philosophy about making something good out of a bad experience. Nancy and David discuss the two sides of stress – good and bad – and how they impact our perceptions of a situation. David shares that without hard times and challenges, he would not have had the opportunities to connect with people who share similar stories to him. Our final caller, Alex, wants to know how he can be a better support for his mother, who is diagnosed with lupus, while juggling a full time job. Nancy recommends finding other venues of support for his mother and focusing on giving his all at work. Hear how Nancy motivates Alex to feel less burdened and how he is living his mother’s dream. When we are transparent with others about our stress, we are allowing them to be an emotional support in our lives. You have the ability to change these negative situations into challenges that can be overcome. By spending more time understanding the root of the issues and opening yourself to every opportunity, you will be living full out.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/living-full-out-show--1474350/support.
