We often believe that if we can just control things — our environment, other people, the outcome — we'll finally feel calm. But what if the opposite is true? In this episode, I share how a daily source of frustration transformed completely when I chose acceptance over control. You'll learn how this mindset shift can improve emotion regulation, reduce anxiety, and help you navigate life with more ease, especially if you're a high-achiever who often gets caught in "shoulds" and expectations.   In this episode, you will learn: How acceptance (not control) leads to calm and emotion regulation The difference between acceptance and resignation Practical ways to reduce frustration when things don't go as planned   ——————— Calmly Coping is a self-improvement podcast for high achievers who struggle with high-functioning anxiety to help you feel more calm, balanced, and confident from within. ———————   📝 Take the Free High-Functioning Anxiety Quiz: http://hfaquiz.com   💬 Submit a message, question, or suggestion to the podcast: https://calmlycoping.com/message ———————   Want more?   👩🏽‍💻 Work with me: My mission is to help you decrease your anxiety, declutter your mind, and say hello to a life of calm and balance.  Learn more about my coaching, therapy, and course offerings here: https://becalmwithtati.com/work-with-me   👥 Join the Calmly Coping Group: The free supportive community for high-achievers with high-functioning anxiety.
