Say Goodbye to the Sunday Scaries

Ever find yourself lying in bed on a Sunday night, scrolling through social media, feeling that familiar dread creeping in?

The Sunday Scaries are real.

I remember a client of mine who faced this every week. She felt exhausted just thinking about the workweek ahead—underappreciated and overwhelmed.
And the worst part? She thought nothing would change.
I get it. A lot of my clients have been there too.

A Powerful Discovery

But here’s the thing: she learned something powerful.
She discovered that she could be in the exact same job, with the same boss, the same workload, and coworkers.
And yet, she could FEEL completely different.

How?

Through coaching, she realized she could intentionally choose her thoughts. She could create her own emotions and decide how to approach her work.

The Mindset Shift

We dove deep into time management and productivity tools, but the real magic started in her mind.
I taught her to:
• Notice her thoughts.
• Evaluate if they served her well.
• Change them when they didn’t.
She learned to manage her thoughts about her job, her boss, and her workload. And it changed everything.
Suddenly, she had discernment. She knew what truly mattered and what didn’t.

Clearing the Air

She described it as “clearing the air.”
In meetings, she could sit back and mentally separate the noise from the essentials. No more frantic energy.
She slowed down and focused on the critical few tasks.
When she spoke to executives and peers, she did it with calm and clarity. The overwhelm drifted away, and clarity emerged.
It’s hard to put into words, but she felt calm and in control.

The Transformation

And guess what? The Sunday Scaries vanished.
Now, she looks forward to going into the office.
She spends more time building relationships and less time drowning in tasks.
She loves her job again, and she can’t believe it—she has the same position with the same boss.
Mindset work is no joke. It’s life-changing.

Take Charge of Your Feelings

So, if you find yourself battling the Sunday Scaries, remember:
You have the power to change how you feel about your work.
Let’s chat about how you can create that shift.
