Anxiety Simplified - Beyond Traditional Psychology

I love how engaging and enjoyable it is listening to Joanne’s conversations about how life can be easier and more satisfying. Breathe

I’ve been listening to Joanne’s podcast Anxiety Simplified the last several years and have been sending episodes to friends as it resonates with so many people.

Anxiety is a big deal because it takes over normal life. People stop doing the things that used to feel easy. They avoid calls. They cancel plans. They overthink every decision. They get stuck in their own head. A show like Anxiety Simplified matters because it gives people language for what’s happening and a way to work through it. Not in a heavy, clinical way. In a way you can use on a Tuesday afternoon. It also helps people feel less alone. A lot of anxiety is private. People hide it well, then pay for it later. This stuff is hard. The next step is small. Pick one tool from one episode and try it for a week. Not ten tools, just one.

This episode was filled with nuggets of wisdom. I wish I would have known this information during my corporate career. The points that resonated with me are: 1) Anxiety comes from the perception of whats at risk 2) High performers dont eliminate the pressure they learn how to work with it 3) If you are doing this you can undo this 4) Be vulnerable and authentic 5) Calm is a body state not a mindset 6) Memorize structure of 3 points not the words you want to say Thank you for sharing your wisdom and guidance, it has helped me :)
