Using Positive Psychology To Energize Yo...

Tess Masters
About this episode

It feels harder than ever to find balance and joy. How do you energize your happiness, and focus on what you want instead of what you don’t want? Award-winning positive psychologist and motivational speaker Niyc Pidgeon shows us how with the gold from her inspiring book, Now Is Your Chance.    

We go over some strategies to help you invest time and energy in choices that take you where you want to go. Niyc says to “name and claim” your fears to take away their power. The “Best Possible Self” letter is one of many tips she shares for tapping into your strength and resilience.  

Whether you’re struggling to know what to do or you have big dreams and want to achieve them, you’ll get loads of tangible tools and inspiration to go after what you want!
