56: Overthinking Is Ruining My Life - Why We Overthink, the Damage Overthinking Does and How to Stop Doing It

I try to go into every year with an idea of the things I want to accomplish as well as the person I want to be. With it almost being half way through the year, I want to talk about some things I'm letting go of. These things, I believe, are holding me back from reaching my full potential and doing more harm than good. Things I'm letting go of: Beating myself up over past mistakes when I didn't know any betterPeople pleasing out of fear of being aloneTrying to label myself or put myself in a boxSaying no out of fear of failing or being uncomfortableSelf limiting beliefsTrying Not to Care is sponsored by Green Chef - Go to greenchef.com/tntc50 and use code tntc50 to get 50% off, plus 20% off your next two monthsTrying Not to Care is sponsored by AG1 - Try AG1 and get a FREE 1-year supply of Vitamin D3K2 AND 5 free AG1 Travel Packs with your first purchase at drinkAG1.com/TNTCSOCIALS AND LINKSInstagram: Ashley's Instagram | Trying Not to Care InstagramTikTok: Ashley's TikTok | Trying Not to Care TikTokYoutube: Subscribe hereRevolve, Amazon Storefront and more: LTXIf you want to ask me questions, need advice or have any episode ideas, submit here: TNTC Community Google FormTNTC COMMUNITY GROUPCHAT: https://app.geneva.com/invite/4939298b-477b-4d4b-a32a-0b82431273bfBusiness Inquiries - [email protected] / [email protected] by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

#111With it being Mental Health Awareness Month and following last week’s episode, we’re talking about 3 daily wins. A lot of my stress and anxiety come from wanting to be successful, which leads me to overwork myself and put my needs on the back burner. I’m slowly starting to learn that there’s more than one way to be successful. If you’re taking care of yourself physically, mentally, and spiritually, YOU ARE SUCCESSFUL!DONATE TO RAISING FUNDS TO EVACUATE A FAMILY FROM GAZAhttps://gofund.me/t3d33c9c7SOCIALS AND LINKSInstagram: Ashley's Instagram | Trying Not to Care InstagramTikTok: Ashley's TikTok | Trying Not to Care TikTokYoutube: Subscribe hereRevolve, Amazon Storefront and more: LTXIf you want to ask me questions, need advice or have any episode ideas, submit here: TNTC Community Google FormTNTC COMMUNITY GROUPCHAT: https://app.geneva.com/invite/4939298b-477b-4d4b-a32a-0b82431273bfBusiness Inquiries - [email protected] / [email protected] by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

After struggling with burnout, I thought it was only right to come back and speak about how I’ve been feeling as well as the pressure to always do more.  I think a lot of us struggle to actually relax because society has made us believe that taking a break is a bad thing. Whenever we take time to slow down, we feel guilty, like we could be doing something more productive. Today I break down why we need to let go of this “rotting” mindset and allow ourselves to relax.Trying Not to Care is sponsored by AG1 - Try AG1 and get a FREE 1-year supply of Vitamin D3K2 AND 5 free AG1 Travel Packs with your first purchase at drinkAG1.com/TNTCSOCIALS AND LINKSInstagram: Ashley's Instagram | Trying Not to Care InstagramTikTok: Ashley's TikTok | Trying Not to Care TikTokYoutube: Subscribe hereRevolve, Amazon Storefront and more: LTXIf you want to ask me questions, need advice or have any episode ideas, submit here: TNTC Community Google FormTNTC COMMUNITY GROUPCHAT: https://app.geneva.com/invite/4939298b-477b-4d4b-a32a-0b82431273bfBusiness Inquiries - [email protected] / [email protected] by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In today's episode, I am talking about why girls have such a bad reputation when it comes to friendships. I have heard so many people, especially men, say girls are so much drama and they're always fighting with their friends. In my opinion, I think the reason why girls have more friendship fallouts is because we have higher expectations for our friends than guys do. Today I'm talking about Healthy friendships I currently haveComparing my boyfriend and his friendships to mineWhy guy friendships and girl friendships are so differentNot allowing disrespect in friendshipsWhen to cut ties and end a friendshipSOCIALS AND LINKSInstagram: Ashley's Instagram | Trying Not to Care InstagramTikTok: Ashley's TikTok | Trying Not to Care TikTokYoutube: Subscribe hereRevolve, Amazon Storefront and more: LTXIf you want to ask me questions, need advice or have any episode ideas, submit here: TNTC Community Google FormTNTC COMMUNITY GROUPCHAT: https://app.geneva.com/invite/4939298b-477b-4d4b-a32a-0b82431273bfBusiness Inquiries - [email protected] / [email protected] by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

ARIES RISE!!!!! It’s officially April and my birthday week. With my birthday coming up, I wanted to talk about previous birthdays where I felt underappreciated by the people in my life. Birthdays can be really hard, especially when you don’t have many friends and feel very overwhelmed. Over the years, I’ve found myself upset over the lack of plans and birthday wishes because all I wanted was to be celebrated. In today’s episode, I talk about celebrating yourself and how you can’t expect others to show up for you if you’re not willing to show up for yourself. SOCIALS AND LINKSInstagram: Ashley's Instagram | Trying Not to Care InstagramTikTok: Ashley's TikTok | Trying Not to Care TikTokYoutube: Subscribe hereRevolve, Amazon Storefront and more: LTXIf you want to ask me questions, need advice or have any episode ideas, submit here: TNTC Community Google FormTNTC COMMUNITY GROUPCHAT: https://app.geneva.com/invite/4939298b-477b-4d4b-a32a-0b82431273bfBusiness Inquiries - [email protected] / [email protected] by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Every year around my birthday, I spiral because I am overly aware of the fact that I am getting older. I used to be so excited for my birthday, and now I dread it because I am afraid of getting older. In today's episode, I talk about the fears of aging, backhanded compliments, beauty standards, and why I am no longer attaching a negative meaning to aging. SOCIALS AND LINKSInstagram: Ashley's Instagram | Trying Not to Care InstagramTikTok: Ashley's TikTok | Trying Not to Care TikTokYoutube: Subscribe hereRevolve, Amazon Storefront and more: LTXIf you want to ask me questions, need advice or have any episode ideas, submit here: TNTC Community Google FormTNTC COMMUNITY GROUPCHAT: https://app.geneva.com/invite/4939298b-477b-4d4b-a32a-0b82431273bfBusiness Inquiries - [email protected] / [email protected] by Dear MediaSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
