3 Tips to Be Social & Empowered in Any Situation
It's 5-o-clock somewhere! What are you doing? Rushing home to get food on the table? Heading to the gym to get a quick workout in? Or are you heading to happy hour, a networking event or business after hours?
Confession time! I hate going to social events when I don't know a soul! Truth! It really gives me anxiety and on top of that I have to go beyond my comfort zone and use my 'lady coconuts' to muster up the confidence to go talk to someone! That can make most people slip into the bathroom, call a cab and bolt out to something a little more ....well comfortable (which I've maybe done..... maybe ;) )
On top of not knowing anyone, may you decide a drink will calm your nerves.
Maybe you start thinking about what you should drink. Do you want the wine, the beer or the martini? And that leads into a whole sidebar conversation with yourself about how many calories you're consuming and how you'll have to hit the gym extra hard the next day etc... All these thoughts and feelings of guilt and shame start to bubble to the surface BEFORE you've even had a chance to get a drink or socialize!
Sometimes these feelings mixed with the situation can lead to overindulgence in the food and alcohol department and then whaddaya know.... next morning and days' schedule is SHOT!
