In this podcast, we're discussing the cognitive distortion of overgeneralization, a common thought pattern that can hinder your progress and increase anxiety.  How does it serve you to think that the universe conspires against you when you're already running late? 

Discover how it can hold you back in both business and life and learn practical tips for overcoming it. Heather provides a fresh perspective on this mental challenge that affects so many. Tune in to boost your awareness, reduce anxious thoughts, and transform your mindset.
