Take control of anxiety
Sounds fantastic & impossible?
I get it. I used to feel the same way.
Hi, I'm Charlene and I used to be so socially anxious that I struggled with talking to anyone. Even friends.
I had lifelong anxiety and always thought that this was it. That confidence and just being able to talk to someone was for other people. That this was something I was always going to struggle with. And then I was hit by a bus (literally) and started learning mindfulness meditation to help me manage my anxiety.
Suddenly, I could talk to people. I went from needing my friend to speak to the waiter on my behalf to traveling on my own, attending conferences and expanding my social network.
All because I learned how to get out of my head, and into my life.
Now, I’m taking everything I learned as a psychotherapist and mindfulness-based stress reduction teacher to help you learn how to manage your social anxiety so that you can thrive as an entrepreneur.
For an entrepreneur, so many of things that we do on a daily basis can cause social anxiety to rear its ugly head.
- Attending a networking event?
- Launching a new program?
- Showing up on social media?
- Growing your network?
All of these can be incredibly daunting when you have social anxiety. Imagine if instead of having racing thoughts, a pounding heart, sweaty palms and a pit inside of your stomach you could feel calm and ease?
Picture it...
- You've signed up to attend a networking event and your biz bestie who was supposed to come with you had to cancel.
- Now you have to decide "do I just back out and not go? Or do I brave it and go on my own?"
- Just then, you notice that your mind is racing telling you all of the ways that this could go wrong. And remember that time that you spent the whole night hiding in the corner because even the idea of speaking to someone you didn't know sent your heart racing.
- You start replaying all the ways that things can go wrong. Now your palms are sweaty and you'll probably drop your wine glass and it will shatter all over the floor and now everyone is staring and can the earth please open up and swallow me whole??
- Only, you're still at home, the networking event isn't for another 3 hours and this scenario is just playing out inside of your head.
What happened?
Your anxiety showed up…
- ...and now you find yourself in your head thinking about all of the ways that this night could go wrong and how its better if you just stay home.
- Ugh, you feel like you just can’t get past that initial push of trusting yourself & challenging yourself for something bigger & better.
- You feel like this is just how things are and you will never get better so what's the point in even trying. Time to put your pjs on and curl up on the couch instead.
I totally get it because I was that chronic over thinker, socially anxious person who struggled with talking to friends let alone strangers.
After years of feeling like I was never good enough I was finally able to stop mentally beating myself up.
Join the journey!
- Now, imagine this...
- you can attend networking events without the overwhelming fear and struggle of talking to people. You know exactly what to say, feel comfortable in your skin and you end the night feeling calm and relaxed with the knowledge that you've made a few connections.
- you can pitch your ideas, programs, and courses without fear of judgement or rejection.
- You could engage in conversations effortlessly, building meaningful connections with potential clients and collaborators finally giving you the confidence to guest on other peoples podcasts.
- Instead of getting caught up in self-doubt & imposter syndrome you know that you can choose to ignore that voice and instead to trust in your self and your worth.
- When all those little worries crop up you’re not concerned because you’ve got all the skills and tools needed to find peace, freedom and happiness that is available to you.
That this can be your reality every day.

In 2004, I graduated from university with my BA in psychology with the plan to continue on to grad school. Only my inner critic showed up and talked me out of it.
10 long years later, I'm now a registered psychotherapist. Proving that with the power of mindfulness you too can go after your dreams and make them a reality.
MEET YOUR TOUR GUIDE
Hey there, I'm Charlene.
I help people just like you who are struggling with doubt, overwhelm and living with fear-based thinking.
I'm a psychotherapist and Mindfulness teacher. I'm also the founder of The Mindfulness Journey.
Growing up I was the dictionary definition of shy and socially anxious. I struggled with talking to pretty much anyone. My inner critic would show up EVERY SINGLE TIME.
Even the idea of striking up a convo with someone would trigger my anxiety. I used to write out our pizza order before calling it in and it was always the same and not even a little bit complicated. (A couple of pepperoni and one half cheese/half mushroom). 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Now, since learning how to use mindfulness to quiet my inner critic and heal my anxiety..
- I'm traveling on my own
- Attending workshops, conferences and retreats where I don't know a single person (and coming home with new friends)
- Talking to that cutie in the coffee shop
And now I can stand up in front of a crowd of people to share my story and the benefits of mindfulness to help with stress, anxiety, overwhelm and doubt. (22 workshops to be exact, like a boss 😀).
Why we need to work with our inner critic to heal our anxiety.
Our thoughts & judgements are the #1 thing that keeps us feeling stuck.
We use our thoughts, judgements & fears to protect us from the fear of being inadequate or unworthy.
We believe that this fear is protecting us from making a mistake and embarrassing ourselves. But really it’s blocking us from the life that we really want.
Instead of our mind being our greatest support during challenging times its become our prison keeping us playing small.
When you get 80% through creating a sales funnel and give up? That’s your inner critic at work.
Fear is showing up, telling you that now isn’t the time, that it’s better to wait until later. Only “later” never comes.
There’s never one moment where the stars align and everything feels right. There’s just this moment, right here in front of you, and when you know how to work with your inner critic you have all the tools you need when doubt shows up.

The results speak for themselves...
"Working with Charlene on mindfulness and meditation has made all the difference in my very busy life. Her calming voice is a constant reminder in the back of my head to stay present and tuned in, whether I'm eating a meal, walking down the street or working with a client. I recommend working with Charlene if you're feeling disconnected from yourself and you need to learn how to quiet the outside noise and come home to your heart. "
Lindsay Johnson - The Radical Connector
"Charlene stands for mindfulness in every sense of the word. Being in her presence you can't help but feel the energy she shares and the presence she brings. Would highly recommend working with her for your overall wellbeing and mindfulness goals.

STILL HERE?
Good, because there's something I need to tell you.
These are the exact strategies that I use whenever I'm faced with challenging moments. Like getting hit by a bus and needing to undergo 4 neurosurgeries over the course of 18 months. Yup, a literal bus.
Or when I ended up back in the emergency room 6 years later with a second skull bone infection and needed another 6 neurosurgeries.
Because when life gets tough, or we get nervous or scared, that's when our inner critic and our anxiety shows up.
Not only do I have the knowledge and training behind what I teach, but I have first hand experience to know that these skills will work for you.
In fact I come back to these strategies time and time again.
These mindfulness and therapeutic strategies have helped me to:
- launch my own business
- become a public speaker
- travel and attend conference on my own
- meet new people
When before my anxiety and inner critic would have convinced me that this was all "impossible" for someone like me.
NOPE.
Not only was I able to make these changes in my life but I also helped me students learn how to use the power of mindfulness to quiet their inner critic.
And now these skills are available here for you today at the low price of $297.
