Id love to hear from you! -chels
Chelsea Tansey returns to discuss the intersection of faith, entrepreneurship, and overcoming scarcity mindset. She reveals powerful strategies to regulate your nervous system and reconnect with God when faced with anxiety as a high-achieving woman.
• Identifying when your nervous system is in "bear chase mode" causing anxiety and scarcity feelings
• Understanding that feelings aren't labels—you're not "an anxious person," you're experiencing temporary emotions
• Breaking free from avoidance masked as spirituality that prevents true emotional processing
• Creating a daily conviction process to anchor into empowerment rather than fear
• Recognizing spiritual warfare when you step into your divine calling
• Using scripture as a sword against enemy attacks rather than just as a Sunday accessory
• Making play, laughter, and joy non-negotiable parts of your daily routine
• Setting realistic expectations to avoid perpetual disappointment
• Building community support with like-minded women of faith
