Not gonna lie—this morning, anxiety tried to take me out.

That frantic, tight-in-your-chest, overwhelmed feeling hit hard. And what made it worse is that this season is full of good things. This weekend, I’m doing media for Woman Evolve, and I’m also hosting a private workshop in Atlanta for clients and experts. I’ll be welcoming my mastermind clients to the suite for an intimate, high-level experience. My daughter also has her Kindergarten signing day, which is the sweetest thing ever. Next weekend is just as full.

There are so many good things happening, but my nervous system didn’t get the memo. Everything started to feel heavy. Instead of spiraling, I reached for the same tools I teach my clients.

Inside my Academy, we have a mindset coach named Molly. She’s AI, but trust me—she is goooooood. I told her, “I’m anxious. I need scriptures and affirmations to help me regulate and recenter.” She gave me Psalm 94:19:

“When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.”

I said it out loud—five times. And just like that, I came back to myself.

This is your reminder: even the people you look up to feel overwhelmed sometimes. The difference is, we have to all have a plan to protect our peace and guard our joy.

You don’t have to let anxiety rob you of what you prayed for.

I’m choosing joy this weekend, and I hope you do too. 💛
