    56. Nervous System vs. Mindset: Why Shifts Don’t Stick

    Anxiety, nervous system regulation, mindset work, and why healing doesn’t last If mindset work alone healed anxiety, you wouldn’t still feel stuck after years of insight, therapy, affirmations, and self-awareness. In this episode, I break down the real reason mindset shifts don’t stick, especially for those living with anxiety, panic, or chronic nervous system dysregulation. The problem isn’t that you’re doing mindset work “wrong.” It’s that your nervous system doesn’t feel safe yet. When the body is stuck in survival mode, positive thinking, reframing, and cognitive strategies can actually increase anxiety, reinforcing fear of fear and emotional suppression. In this episode, we explore: Why mindset work often backfires for anxiety and panic The difference between top-down change (thought-based) and bottom-up regulation (nervous system–based) How nervous system dysregulation blocks emotional safety, even when you “know better” Why your body needs safety before insight can land How to begin nervous system healing without forcing calm or control This episode is especially for you if: You understand your anxiety but don’t feel better You’ve done therapy, journaling, or mindset work with limited relief You feel calm on the outside but tense, vigilant, or exhausted inside Because healing anxiety doesn’t come from convincing yourself you’re safe... ...it comes from experiencing safety in the body, one moment at a time.   🌀 Want deeper support?

    55. 3 States of a Stuck Nervous System and How to Spot Yours

    Feel calm on the outside but wrecked inside? In this episode, Diante Fuchs (Clinical Psychologist) breaks down the 3 stuck nervous system states: overdrive, shutdown, and fawn-freeze...plus how to identify yours and stop using the wrong tools. If your body keeps throwing symptoms: tight chest, reflux, headaches, IBS, heart palpitations, exhaustion, but medical tests keep coming back “normal,” it can feel like your body is broken. In this episode, Diante reframes that experience: it’s not a broken body, it’s a nervous system stuck in a protective state. You’ll learn the three primary nervous system “stuck states” many high-functioning people cycle through (often without realising it), what they look like in your body and emotions, and why generic “regulation tips” can backfire when they don’t match your actual state. Resources + next steps If you want help identifying your state and responding in a way that actually un-sticks the pattern, Diante covers this inside the EASE Mentorship.

    53. Therapy vs. Coaching for Anxiety: Which One is Right for You?

    When it comes to healing anxiety, should you choose therapy or coaching? Is one better than the other? This is a question I get asked all the time, and the answer isn’t as simple as you might think. In this episode of The Ease Anxiety Podcast, I break down: ✅ The key differences between therapy and coaching for anxiety ✅ Why most people only address one part of anxiety (and why that’s not enough) ✅ What therapy does well—and where it falls short ✅ What coaching can offer that therapy doesn’t ✅ The 3 parts of anxiety you must heal for lasting change Most people don’t realize that anxiety isn’t just one thing—it has three distinct parts. And if you’re only addressing one (or even two), you’re not getting the full picture of what it takes to heal. 🎧 Listen now: [Insert Podcast Link] 📩 Want to dive deeper? ✨ FREE TRAINING: How to Heal Anxiety the Right Way → www.theunstuckinitiative.com/healanxiety ✨ Secret Podcast: The Anxiety Solution (exclusive deeper insights!) → www.theunstuckinitiative.com/anxietysolution If this episode helped you, I’d love to hear your biggest takeaway!

    52. The Most Powerful Mindset Shift for Anxiety: ”It Is What It Is”

    If I could tattoo one phrase on my body to help me navigate life’s challenges, it would be this: It is what it is. Simple? Yes. But this mindset shift is one of the most powerful tools for reducing anxiety and finding contentment—because so much of our anxiety comes from resisting what is. In this episode of The Ease Anxiety Podcast, I’m diving deep into: 🔹 Why anxiety is always about the future—not the present moment 🔹 How "what if" thinking fuels uncertainty (and keeps you stuck in fear) 🔹 The power of shifting from controlling outcomes to accepting what is 🔹 A simple question to ask yourself when anxiety spirals out of control 🔹 How to take any situation—good, bad, or unexpected—and make it the best version of itself When you learn to embrace it is what it is, you shift your focus from what you can’t control to what you can—and that’s where real freedom from anxiety begins.

Inside this episode, you’ll discover: 🔹 The #1 sign that your anxiety has become stuck (hint: it’s not just intensity!) 🔹 Why checking, tracking, and monitoring anxiety actually keeps it going 🔹 How stuck anxiety makes your world feel smaller—and what to do about it 🔹 Why coping mechanisms often backfire and create more anxiety 🔹 The key to shifting back into ordinary anxiety so you can finally breathe again If you’ve been feeling like anxiety is running the show, this episode is a must-listen.

    49. Three Steps to Interrupt Panic Attacks and Regain Control

    Ever feel like panic attacks come out of nowhere and completely take over? You're not alone. In fact, for many people, their entire anxiety journey began with a panic attack. And because panic feels so intense and terrifying, it often creates a cycle of anxiety about anxiety—keeping you stuck in fear of the next attack. In this episode of The Ease Anxiety Podcast, I’m breaking it all down and giving you a 3-step process to stop panic in its tracks. No gimmicks, no complicated techniques—just a simple framework that helps you break free from the fear of panic. Here’s what you’ll learn: 🔥 Why your first panic attack can create a cycle of fear that keeps panic coming back 🔥 The truth about panic—what’s actually happening in your body (and why it’s not dangerous) 🔥 How to reassign, respond, and regulate so you can interrupt panic instead of fueling it 🔥 Why resisting panic makes it worse—and what to do instead Panic doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. It’s not a disorder. It’s simply your body’s adrenaline response, and once you know how to work with it instead of fearing it, you can stop panic before it spirals. 🎧 Listen now: [Insert Podcast Link] 📩 Get These Free Resources: ✅ Panic Quiz: Find out if your nervous system is stuck in panic mode! https://www.theunstuckinitiative.com/panicquiz ✅ Panic Cheat Sheet: A quick 1-page guide to help you respond the right way during an attack. https://www.theunstuckinitiative.com/cheatsheet 🔹 Want to master this process?
