#41: Navigating Tough Times with Donny Starkins

Please welcome Donny Starkins (@donny_starkins) BACK to the show!
He first joined us on episode #28, and I invited him back on to
share his heart during these challenging times. 

As a yoga instructor, meditation leader, teacher and coach, he
has an ability to make complex concepts feel achievable, even in
the midst of chaos. Today’s conversation is shorter than the
average episode because we’re primarily discussing how to
navigate feelings of anxiety, fear or uncertainty during this
COVID-19 pandemic. Fortunately, his tools and mindset shifts are
valuable and applicable far beyond a global health crisis and I
hope they help you and/or your loved ones.


In this interview we cover:


Shifting your mindset while navigating uncertainty and/or
anxiety

Using mindfulness to manage fear

Adopting the leadership approach

Daily practices and a powerful acronym to promote personal
accountability and self-compassion
