We all know we have to work with people… AND we also know that we can’t run from how we’re feeling forever. I’m willing to bet the amount of pizza, Netflix, and wine over the years have proven to you that inevitably old feelings find their way back to you (especially when they relate to that one person at work!). So then, if we know that we have to work with people and that we can’t run from our feelings… The question we need to ask ourselves is, how do we expect to work with all KINDS of people, let alone do it amazingly well AND with genuine pleasure? Well, the short version of it is that you can’t. Great and wise leaders understand that they’ve had to build an AMAZING relationship with all of their feelings in order to not only do their job well, but live LIFE UTTERLY WELL.

Let’s talk about what it actually takes to have a Stressproof year. But first, we have to understand what we want individually, because let’s be real… not everyone’s vision of what they want is going to be the same. In this week’s episode we’re going to break down the three small steps that you can make today toward making that change, and to help us do that I’m going to introduce to you one of my clients. OH, I also have a very important announcement. I’m hosting a private (very private) in-person retreat in Seattle this June. For more details listen to the intro and if you are 100% committed to attending this retreat, email me at info@susanchoiwellness.com and I’ll send you all the details first. Let’s do this.

If you can’t seem to stop thinking about what someone said at work, or maybe you just can’t seem to get the image of their facial expression out of your head (as you try and get ready for bed), well, this episode is for you my friend. Most highly functioning adults in the workplace start to let the stress of other people affect how they show up at work, and eventually their personal lives, impacting health and even relationships. Learn what is happening inside of our mind and why we’ve become so affected by other people, AND learn how to change that right now.   LATEST ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Are you a sensitive Executive and your feelings are starting to get the best of you?

Have you ever tried more than one way to change a habit, or maybe you’ve tried several strategies to reach your goal in surpassing a company record (because wouldn’t that be amazing?)? But in trying one strategy after another, you’re start to become frustrated or even bewildered as to why things aren’t working like you thought they would. In this episode we’re going BEYOND the strategy and I’m breaking down why in actuality everything technically works, but it’s really about the belief you are holding in every single moment that drives the actual outcome to fruition, or not.

When we can authentically be who we are without needing to hide, it gives us the raw opportunity to shine our full light, allow more headspace to be free to think in the present moment, and give others the same opportunity to let them be who they truly want to be. In this episode I use several different examples from leadership styles, spirituality, dieting lifestyles, and more to illustrate how we can change over the years and what it means to embrace that change or to hide that change. This doesn’t mean we become an open wikipedia to everyone in our lives, but it does invite an opportunity to reflect on who we’ve become and whether or not different parts of our lives have caught up to this change and as well as asking ourselves whether or not certain updates are even appropriate. Listen now and re-discover the new YOU. It’s the perfect way to end the calendar year and embrace the new year.   LATEST ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Are you a sensitive Executive and your feelings are starting to get the best of you? Are you w

We’re very aware of what we support, believe, and even stand for, but are we fully aware of how we talk to ourselves about our dreams, goals, and our life? Subtle Thoughts are so subtle that they are automatic. You may be thinking and living your life from a place of, “Good things always happen to me” OR “Good things don’t last”. It’s up to you to decide which is better, and this podcast episode is here to help you reveal the idea of subtle thoughts so that you can become more aware of the thoughts that are running the show of your life. Oh! And the good news? The good news is that Subtle Thoughts can change at any moment. All it takes is a bit of practice.

What if there was a scale you can refer to every time you felt prolonged mental or emotional distress? A scale that can show you that perhaps you’re in too much pain and if you let it go any further it can really lead to more problems and even more pain? In this week’s episode I want to introduce to you the Pain Signal Scale and tell you all about it. It’s a self evaluative tool you can use on yourself to see whether or not you’re simply tolerating the pain or if you’re letting the problem get the best of you.

Sometimes we put off making big decisions. And let’s face it, even minor ones such as whether or not we should go to that potluck. It isn’t always about those big career moves. But what most Stressed Out Successes don’t realize is the impact of indecision on our lives. And that’s what we call Living in Maybe. When we live in maybe, not only are we exactly where we are, what’s worse is we’re not truly IN our lives living it on purpose because we’re stuck in our heads trying to make a decision! We’re kind of in between worlds aren’t we? Listen to this week’s podcast as we dive even deeper on this topic. Let’s stop living in maybe, and start living on purpose.   LATEST ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Are you a sensitive Executive and your feelings are starting to drive you crazy?

The reason why I don’t lay out an exit plan or even a self-care plan for my clients is because those things don’t actually RESOLVE the root of stress. Because I have worked with clients who are IN the new job they thought would be better only to be met with another co-worker or company policy that is driving them crazy. Can you relate to this too? So then, what do we need to focus on if it’s not something OUTSIDE of us that needs to change? I explain the three exact things you need in order to start feeling better today.

Most Executives I speak with want to roll their eyes the moment we talk about feelings. And maybe the rolling of the eyes is a bit dramatic but what they really want to learn is the exact formula to not being affected by stressful events. They want to know how to think on purpose, when to catch default thinking, and the exact order in which to apply the model. But the irony is that stress is a feeling too. It’s not the email, it’s not the co-worker, and it’s the economy. Stress is an inside feeling that we feel because of our brain and the thoughts inside of them. So if we’re already feeling a feeling then, how do we release the feeling and get to thought work? In Day 4 of the Stress Cleanse Challenge we’re going to be discussing the importance of training yourself to keep your VIBE HIGH and the effect it has on every single thing you do. Feelings dictate the trajectory of WHERE you want to go. So let’s talk about our feelings. Trust me. This one is good. Listen now.   LATEST ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Want to learn wha

If you struggle with NOT checking your email in the evenings, you’re not alone. Most Stressed Out Successes have every intention to shut down by 8pm, but find themselves hearing or seeing the notification and before they know it they’re responding to the email on their phone. What’s worse is they start feeling guilty for not being more present with their loved ones or if they’re single, they start resenting their work because all of their free time is consumed with thoughts about work! Can you relate to this too? In Day 3 of the Stress Cleanse Challenge we’re going to be discussing exactly this. Those late night emails and how to set boundaries that actually WORK. Believe it or not boundaries aren’t just a rule you set in your head. In reality, boundaries are really about learning how to feel the intensity of an emotion. Think about it. If it didn’t feel so bad, was it really that urgent to check and send? If that email didn’t rile you up so much, would you have written that email the way you did? What this i

Most Stressed Out Successes are in pain because they’re doing it all trying to control every single outcome. And when you’re in the middle of every problem trying to handle it yourself, trust starts to break down, results aren’t created fast enough, and because you’re in the middle of everything you start to feel burned out yourself. What most Stressed Out Successes don’t realize is that the reason why they feel the need to control isn’t so that everything goes right, the real reason is because they are protecting themselves from a FEELING.  From feeling bad, stressed, anxious, you name it. But what if you knew how to feel and let it go with ease? Would that change the way you live your life? Could you give up your control… just a little? We discuss this topic on Day 2 of the Stress Cleanse Challenge. Listen now.   LATEST ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Want to learn what it really takes to release stress 10X FASTER?

When we don’t understand who we are BEING, we tend to look to the external world to fix the problem. That’s why most Stressed Out Successes turn to endless amounts of self-care, spending money on the latest tech gadgets (yes, how many of us have splurged as an, “I deserve this!” gift?), or even working longer hours to try and feel better. But continuing to operate in this way is literally causing more pain. Because this is like going to your local pharmacy asking for aspirin to relieve the pain, when really you have a broken arm and all the aspirin is doing is making you feel better - temporarily. That’s why in this episode I’m doing an in-depth review of the 5 different stress identities so we can create awareness of who we are BEING and start looking at our stress from an INTERNAL viewpoint instead of constantly looking outside of us to feel better. Join this special end of summer challenge! Each episode will end with a workbook of questions and this will be a 5 part challenge, just in time for year end pro

I’ve heard from countless Stressed Out Successes that once they get that certification they can finally stress less. But how many times have we heard something similar like… Once I make a certain level of income, then I can relax or then I can go on THAT vacation. Or Once I reach that level of success then people will really respect me. Or Once I meet the love of my life then things will feel better. Here’s the thing. If that were really true then anyone who’s ever gotten that certification would never be stressed and be really happy. But you and I both know that this isn’t true at all. In fact, you might know someone (and maybe it’s you) that has a number of certifications but still doesn’t truly feel…. Complete. In this week’s episode I’m breaking down why this “logic” is keeping you stuck from reaching the success you want, and I’m going to be sharing exactly what you need to work on so that you can feel confident wherever you go.

If you’ve made the decision already and you’re thinking to yourself, “Oh my god, I made the wrong decision… what did I do?!”, then this episode is specifically for you my friend. In this episode we’re breaking down the guilt and loss we feel when we believe we made the wrong choice, what to do when this happens, why you had to make that decision you did, and why it wasn’t about the person or opportunity to begin with but rather the FEELING you wanted to feel instead. Don’t worry, everything is perfect. Listen now.   LATEST ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Want to learn what it really takes to release stress 10X FASTER?
