We all know how important sleep is to help us function better in our daily lives: to have improved focus, energy, and motivation.

Those with high-functioning anxiety wear a mask of calm, perfectionism, success, and busyness on the outside to shroud the torrent of overthinking, self-doubt, overanalyzing, fear of failure, and insecurity on the inside. This mask often stays in place because the fear of “what if’s” keeps it there— what if I’m really not good enough? What if people think I’m a fraud? What if everything falls apart? What if everybody thinks I’m weak, or a failure? In this episode, we’ll unveil the mask of high-functioning anxiety— what keeps the mask in place, what it’s hiding, and what you can do about it to find a greater sense of ease in your life.   In this episode, you will learn: 4 specific “masks” that those with high-functioning anxiety tend to wear The struggles these masks are really hiding within How to peel back the layers of your mask so you can stop struggling and begin thriving   ++++++++ 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. ++++++++   REGISTER FOR THE CULTIVATE A CALM 2024 WORKSHOP: http://calmlycoping.com/2024   LEARN MORE ABOUT THE CALM & AMBITIOUS MEMBERSHIP: https://www.calmandambitious.com/   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.

Hustle culture. “I’ll sleep when I’m dead.” The expectation to work all hours of the day now that we can access work from anywhere. These are just a few things that have contributed to declines in mental health in workers, whether you are employed or self-employed. It’s the expectation that you must constantly be doing more, working harder, and that incessant feeling that you aren’t doing enough. The source of these pressures can be both external and self-imposed (especially if you are high-achieving and ambitious), but the consequences are the same: neglecting your own basic self-care in favor of working harder to achieve or maintain success. This isn’t healthy and has to stop, and it’s what we will be exploring further in this episode.   In this episode, you will learn: Signs you are sacrificing your mental health for success How to redefine success in a way that prioritizes mental health 4 specific strategies to balance success and mental health   ++++++++ 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. ++++++++   WATCH THE FREE TRAINING: HOW TO CREATE WORK-LIFE BALANCE AND FEEL CALMER AS A HIGH-ACHIEVING PROFESSIONAL: https://calmlycoping.com/workshop   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   TAKE THE FREE HIGH-FUNCTIONING ANXIETY QUIZ: http://hfaquiz.com   JOIN THE CALMLY COPING GROUP: The free supportive community for high-achievers with high-functioning anxiety.
