Show Notes

Today I visit with a recent guest Wendy Hooper Ross.

Wendy is an expert in residential real estate. She devotes much of her time to understanding the current and future states of the real estate market in the United States. Her insights are brilliant.

Now, while in our conversations about real estate, Wendy and I happened to land on the subject of the role of fear and control in the hearts of Americans. As we chatted, I realized this is a topic we need to discuss on The Next Chapter with Charlie because it impacts everyone’s life in one way or another.

So, today’s show is all about fear and anxiety in our desire for what I’m calling The Facade of Control. As expected, Wendy’s personal insights are bang on. We wrestle with fear and the hunger for control regarding our homes, our relationships, our careers, and even our politics.

One thing I find about my life today… I live in a world of distractions. I may have plans for the day, but other stuff just seems to come up. First there are the external distractions of emails, phone calls, unexpected appointments and less than important interruptions.

But even more disrupting are the Internal Distractions of fear and anxiety and feelings of overwhelm—all resulting in a lack of confidence. It’s surprising we get anything done in any given day.

Our special guest today, hypnotherapist Craig Meriwether, not only understands these issues, but he has also developed very practical alternatives that don’t require years of therapy. His ideas are brilliant and shocking simple!

Let’s find our Craig’s ideas of how we might Take Back Control of Our Lives.

As you might guess, I live in an interior world of creativity and imagination. That’s why I love to ponder. Yes, I spend a good portion of my day thinking about what is and, more importantly, what might be.

Every now and again, I come across an idea that I am not sure what to do with. That’s when I make a phone call to my “go-to” thinkers who also love to ponder challenging topics. Of course I almost always put in a call to my friend Terry Hershey.

And then when it comes to deep-thinking my “go-to” will always be the ever-so brilliant Lindsay Davis. A woman of keen insight and thorough logic.

Today I chat with Lindsay about the perils of Certainty and the necessary advocacy of living intentionally in an uncertain and chaotic world. The world of real life—the one where you never know anything “for sure.”

Lindsay Davis calls herself a “converted perfectionist,” who now focuses on nurturing a fresh and innovative approach to life in a world fraught with chaos and uncertainty.
