The idea for this week's episode of The Transforming Anxiety Podcast is something I've personally been practicing with for a while...noticing those little moments or places during the day where things aren't flowing smoothly. When there are hiccups that totally derail my focus. Times when I struggle with something that seems like it should be much easier than it is...
Mental Load
I recently got turned on to the idea of mental load...and I HAD to bring this one to The Transforming Anxiety Podcastand talk about it with you.
Have you heard of this concept?…

Your Magic
Feeling It Without Being It
So, it's time for another feelings episode on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast. BUT! This week we're going to explore how we can feel things without having those feelings ooze into our words and actions...
Have you ever totally lost your mind with your kid because you were feeling impatient? Or slammed a door out of frustration at work because your boss is so demanding?
Yeah...
Doing Silly Hard Things
Broaden & Build
Hi again...I've missed you. And I have a GOOD one for you today on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast.
Y'know when you have those days where everything just clicks? Things are going your way and you feel like some luck or magic or your benevolent angels must have a hand in ushering good things to you…
Let's Talk About Self-Compassion
Something we haven't talked about for a while, but need to return to every so often, is self-compassion.
On this week's episode of The Transforming Anxiety Podcast, I'm sharing a talk from a mindfulness class I taught a while back.
The foundation for growth, change, and transformation HAS TO BE self-compassion. Otherwise, it'll never stick….
I Believe You
Something *super* simple (but of course these things are never all that easy) for you this week on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast...3 little words that can change relationships AND anxiety. In a good way.
I.
Believe.
You…
Predictability vs. Control
What Community Looks Like
Ok, *today* we are going to focus on something that I know brings a lot of confusion, guilt, and pressure (aka anxiety) into our lives...and that is: what community looks like.
I have experienced this myself and I talk to students every week about it. The people in our lives. Get-togethers and social gatherings. Family and holidays and vacations. Friend groups, acquaintances, colleagues.
Hold it Lightly
Good morning. ☀️ I hope this finds you well. That you're doing ok so far this week. That you're hanging in, finding some flow, letting yourself breathe, and being kind with yourself.
On this week's episode of The Transforming Anxiety Podcast I wanted to explore how we can move through *all the things* without having quite such a death grip on life…
Back to Transforming Anxiety
Ahhhhh, it's good to be back...back to transforming anxiety.
In this week's episode of The Transforming Anxiety Podcast I'm sharing a bit with you about why I took a(n unplanned) break, how I personally struggle a bit, and what we have to look forward to together: work that I want to do, practices I want to steep myself in, teachings I want to stay close to…
Taking Out the Trash
This week on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast we’re going to talk about that inner pileup of garbage that happens after days, weeks, months, YEARS of conversations, work, get-togethers, parenting, and activities. Alllll the garbage that starts gumming up the works, internally. The residue that happens when we ignore ourselves a little bit, when we bite our tongues, when we hold back, when we make ourselves small…
Time Confetti
I have something that sounds fun today, but is way more important than its cute little name and that is: time confetti.
Have you ever had the feeling that you should have more time in your days and weeks than you do? Or sat down to relax for a few minutes and then looked at the clock to realize that an hour had flown by? Or felt so completely fragmented and distracted mentally that even when you get a moment to focus on something...you can't?
