Anxiety has a mission to protect and it often does so in ways that are crushing, robbing you of your presence and the place where you show up in your truth.\n \nMaking friends with your anxiety—and finding the story beneath it—isn’t done by pushing through or thinking your way out of it. That just turns up the dial.\n \nInstead, when you build a relationship with the parts of you that hold your anxiety—instead of trying to kill it or crush it—your life will be different and your ability to lead will feel different.\n \nYou will lead with your anxiety instead of it leading you.\n \nMy guest today did just that. Not only did he study and befriend his anxiety but he saw it as a way to fuel his desire for life-long growth and performance. He learned that the best way to protect his presence is to cultivate practices where he took the time and space to prepare.\n \nChef Joel Gamoran is best known as the host for A&E’s hit series “Scraps,” and has become one of the nation’s most well-known sustainability storytellers. Joel spent over ten years as a National Chef for Sur La Table and, in 2018, Joel released his book “Cooking Scrappy,” inspiring home cooks to turn scraps into delicious meals.\n \nJoel also makes monthly appearances on NBC’s Today Show, sharing his recipes and sustainability tips to a worldwide viewership. Through entertainment, creativity, humility, and education, Joel brings people together with a common goal of getting good food on the table while being mindful of waste.\n \nListen to the full episode to hear:\n\n* Why Joel’s committed to presence and befriending his anxiety\n* Joel’s radical acceptance...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/ArOoH4nRajdKHXRE91wYxu0YMZ-69lVTUZ9h58V8AfI/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQ0MzI1LzE2OTI4/MDUzOTktYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
