Hey, it’s Kelly and welcome back to another episode of the On Fire Empire podcast. Well, this is the last episode in our Season 2 here before we head into a brief break but don’t worry, I’ve got a few ‘tweener episodes that you’ll really enjoy, in between while we get ready to kick of Season 3.

Last year, I released a video on how to court proof your life by building in some tools like mandatory mediation or arbitration clauses into your settlement agreements and your contracts and some other nifty tips on how to stay out of court. I know many of you are business leaders and business owners, so this is something that I think is really valuable for you.

Conflict is the fastest way to lose money in your business if it’s not mastered and managed. Today, I want to share an encore presentation of that audio, right here on the On Fire Empire. It’s a perfect segue to follow up last week’s episode and give you even more high powered tools to worry less about things that you can control.

Worry and anxiety: they’re one of our biggest distractions from living in and enjoying the present moment. Whenever I indulge these distractions I find that Thich Nhat Hanh’s quote is so true. Because worry and anxiety, those things just don’t allow me to live the moments of my daily life deeply. Isn’t deep living really where joy and significance live? Join me today for these four steps to disrupting worry and anxiety.

“The first step here in disrupting worry is to get yourself thinking about the issue in terms of what you can control about it and/or what you have direct influence over.” — Kelly Bennett [0:07:52.1]

“A lot of times, the things we worry about are built up in our minds as monsters.” — Kelly Bennett [0:08:53.1]

“Every second spent worrying about a past or future moment, distracts us from what is important in the here and now.” — Greg McKeown [0:22:15.1]

“Instead of wasting another minute of your time and another minute of your energy on worrying about that thing, do yourself a favor and work the worry out.” — Kelly Bennett [0:10:24.1]

Today I’m giving you a unique look into what goes on in the inner workings of our law firm. You get to eavesdrop on senior attorney Kelly Bennett...yours truly... mentoring associate attorney Rachael Bennett a few years ago, on a sticky situation.
What happens when you’re going through a divorce, but still living under the same roof? Well if there are kids involved, it can be problematic, especially when something so simple could mean the difference between calm and stormy waters.
