    102. Creating Safe Spaces: Unlocking Human Potential

    In this episode of The AnxietyRX Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Nick Holton and Dr. Adam Wright as we explore the powerful connection between trauma, resilience, and well-being. I dive into why I believe the traditional medical focus on medication isn't enough and why a holistic approach, including spiritual healing, is so important. Dr. Holton shares his thoughts on how having a clear sense of purpose and value-based goals can help us unlock our full potential. Dr. Wright offers insights from sports psychology, explaining how controlled exposure to stress is key to building resilience.
