Ever found yourself wide awake at 3 AM, your mind racing through every possible scenario for a meeting that's weeks away? Or spent hours agonizing over the "perfect" response to a text message? If so, you're not alone in the overthinking club.

In this engaging and humorous episode, Pamela Hughes dives into the world of overthinking, exploring why our brains seem hardwired to worry and how we can regain control of our runaway thoughts. Drawing from evolutionary psychology and modern neuroscience, Pamela explains why our caveman brains might be ill-equipped for the social media age.

But this isn't just about understanding why we overthink - it's about practical strategies to break free from the cycle. Pamela shares a toolkit of techniques to help overthinkers:

• The "Brain Dump" method for clearing mental clutter

• How to play "Fact or Fiction" with your worries

• Simple mindfulness practices that don't require a meditation cushion

• The power of taking imperfect action to break decision paralysis

  
  

Throughout the episode, Pamela's relatable anecdotes and self-deprecating humor make complex concepts accessible and entertaining. Whether you're a chronic worrier, an indecisive planner, or just curious about the inner workings of the overthinking mind, this episode offers insights and strategies to help you reclaim mental peace.

Don't miss this opportunity to turn your overthinking tendency from a burden into a superpower. Tune in and discover how to harness your brain's energy for productivity and creativity, rather than endless worry loops. It's time to show your overthinking brain who's boss!

About the host:

Hi, friend! My name is Pamela Hughes and I’m a former talk show host turned life coach. After 20 years in the news business, I walked away from what people thought I should do and I did what I wanted to do … coach people who are stuck like I was and help them find relief, awareness and control within themselves.

This was no easy task and I’m not here telling you it was. I had to take full responsibility for where my life was and then decide where I wanted it to go. It was time to stop complaining about my situation and do something about it. I had to stop looking for others to validate me and start having my own back. This required looking inside myself for the answers instead of looking outside myself.

I told you it wasn’t easy … but I wouldn’t change one thing about my journey because it led me right here to you reading about it, maybe identifying with aspects of it and hopefully being inspired to get UNSTUCK.
