The End of the Day Podcast with Kari Watterson: Using Mindset Work to Live Your Best Life

We've heard that the only difference between those who have the success we long for and those who don't is that those who have the success didn't let obstacles stop them. When you hear them in interviews talking about their journey to success, they invariably point to setback after setback. You learn about the periods of intense doubt, impostor syndrome, pressure, frustration, anxie...

Who is the "real you"? The you right now with your current insecurities, fears, and limiting beliefs living your current life? Or could the real you be the person living an extraordinary life, free from your current inhibitions and self-imposed limitations?

We all have insecurities, but some of us have insecurities that run so deep they impact how we let ourselves experience life. For as long as I can remember, my thoughts about my face were the sources of my deepest pain and shame. While others were focused on losing weight and changing the shape of their bodies through diet and exercise, my shameful secret was that I had an intense aversion to my f...

If we want to set ourselves up for success, we need to develop the skill of identifying and planning for obstacles. The most common obstacles are our thoughts. Some thoughts are minor annoyances, ones we can quickly see through and move past. But some are Kryptonite thoughts, thoughts that when we think them instantly weaken us, sap us of hope and belief, and leave us feeling powerless. Kryptonite...

We've been taught that anything is possible if we truly believe. It makes sense then why so many of us use our level of belief at any given moment as a sign of whether something is or is not working, or whether something is or is not possible for us. In this bite-sized episode, I talk about why waning belief or not believing altogether is not a problem. It's just a signal that we've...

We hear a lot in the personal growth and development space about giving ourselves permission. Giving ourselves permission to dream big, to try something new, to go for what we want, to start over, to be human, to fail, to step into our greatness, to make lots of money, to be wildly successful, to take up space, to be our authentic selves, to slow down, to reprioritize our lives, etc. But what does...

Let me ask you a question. What are you feeling when you wake up? Don't know? That's normal. For most of us, that's a hard question to answer.  It's easier for us to answer the question, "What are you thinking when you first wake up?" But did you know that what you think determines how you feel? Why is that important? Because how you feel governs what you do or don&ap...

Did you know there is a psychological term for that knee-jerk response we sometimes have when we feel like we're being told what to do? In today's episode, I talk about psychological reactance, our brain's negative reflexive response when it perceives a threat to our personal freedom or our ability to be autonomous -- even when that threat comes from us. This opened up my eyes to ho...

What changes have you been wanting to make in your life but keep putting off? Maybe you'd like to get your finances in order, have a better relationship with your partner, be more present with your kids, exercise more consistently, take up hobbies, stop feeling overwhelmed by stress, incorporate a daily mindfulness practice, hit a big, hairy audacious revenue goal in your business, develop a...

"The reward is in the journey, not the destination." For some, focusing on the journey or the process of becoming rather than on a specific outcome removes the pressure of goalsetting. This is particularly true of those who think achieving the goal will help them feel better about themselves. But for those who struggle with time scarcity thoughts ("I'm behind in life," &qu...
