Hello and welcome to episode 277 of the Mindful Kind podcast.

First of all, I just want to say a huge thank you for all the lovely feedback about the last

two episodes of the Mindful Kind podcast called

Signs of Imposter Syndrome and Overcoming Imposter Syndrome.

I heard from so many of my lovely listeners about how they hadn't heard of Imposter

syndrome before, but the episodes really resonated with them and helped them make some

meaningful changes. It makes me so happy and I'm really, really grateful for that feedback.

Anyway, on this episode, I thought I'd talk about what to do when life feels out of control.

A while ago, I sent a survey out to my newsletter community to find out what some of their

challenges were.

And one thing quite a few people mentioned was that their lives felt out of control.

They were frustrated that they didn't have much balance or time for themselves.

They felt overwhelmed by things they felt like they had to do.

And time seemed to be flying past way too quickly.

Quite a few times I saw a phrase that said something along the lines of,

my life feels like it's out of my control, or I feel like I've lost my sense of control

and there's nothing I can do.
