Worry Is the Most Expensive Habit in Your Business (Here’s Why)

from Earn Your Happy · host Lori Harder | YAP Media

I’ll be honest, worrying has been one of my biggest personal growth edges. In this episode, Chris and I talk about why worrying isn’t just exhausting, it’s actively stealing your time, energy, confidence, and results. We break worry down from both angles, the logical cost of worry and the energetic impact it has on your business, your relationships, and your decision-making. Chris shares exercises to shut worry down fast, while I dive into the “woo” side of how fear-based energy leads to bad clients, misaligned decisions, and burnout. Get ready to rethink worry, reclaim your power, and start moving forward from a grounded, confident place.
