Episode 15 - Fighting Phobias with Wisdom (feat. Jess Baden‪)‬ Your Life Sucks

    • Mental Health

Today, for the first time in 4 months, I had a fantastic podcast convo! I chatted with Jess Baden (Socials: @jessmbaden), a rising Junior at UConn, about her childhood and teenage anxiety, phobias, and mental health advocacy.


Topics Discussed:
🧠 Jess’ debilitating generalized childhood anxiety
🧠 Jess’ specific phobias, and how they prevented her from going on trips and participating in class
🧠 Jess’ sudden decisions to expose herself to her fears, and what she learned from those experiences
🧠 How Jess combats her phobias today
🧠 Jess’ sweeping and impactful high school mental health programming


Jess is a fantastic and introspective speaker! This is a great episode to listen to to get back on that Your Life Sucks podcast grind! 🙉🎧🙉
