    Episode #3 Ansiedad As We See It

    Anxiety does not always look like panic. Sometimes it looks like perfectionism, people-pleasing, irritability, overachieving, or never feeling “done”—and if that sounds familiar, this conversation is for you.Three Latina therapists unpack what anxiety really is, how to tell it apart from everyday stress, and why so many people miss the signs in themselves and the people they love. They also get real about the cultural messages that keep anxiety hidden, from “just think positive” to “calm down” to the pressure to keep family struggles private. In this episode, you’ll discover: How anxiety shows up in the body, thoughts, and behavior Why perfectionism and constant productivity can be red flags The difference between stress you can identify and anxiety that won’t switch off How family, culture, and generational expectations shape what we call “nervios” Practical first steps that can help, including naming the feeling, challenging anxious thoughts, breathing, journaling, and making rest a priority Rosie shares the pressure of being the “strong one,” Vanessa opens up about the fear of not doing enough and disappointing family, and Cathy explains how anxiety can be misunderstood as stubbornness, overperformance, or even physical symptoms like stomach pain, restlessness, and panic.Together, they make a strong case for validation, communication, and small, sustainable changes instead of shame.If you’ve ever been told to “just be positive,” if rest makes you feel guilty, or if you know someone carrying too much in silence, this episode will feel like a relief. It’s essential listening for anyone trying to understand anxiety through a mental health lens that is honest, culturally aware, and deeply human. This is a public episode.
