You Are Enough w/Scott Stabile

You Are Enough w/Scott Stabile

To start out the new year, I am SO excited to bring a really great conversation to you on this week's episode of ​The Transforming Anxiety Podcast​. I'm talking with Scott Stabile, author, teacher, and love activist, about his new book: Enough As You Are

Expectations

Expectations

This one seems timely, given where we're at in the year...and, I don't know, history. Let's talk about ​expectations​ today.

Should we raise our expectations? Lower them? Drop them altogether? And where the hell do our expectations come from in the first place?

Yeah...

Scare Your Soul w/Scott Simon

Scare Your Soul w/Scott Simon

I have another amazing interview for you this week on ​The Transforming Anxiety Podcast​...Scott Simon is joining me to talk about his book, Scare Your Soul. And this is far more than a book: it's an entire *movement*…

Keep the Bridges, Burn the Boats

Keep the Bridges, Burn the Boats

This week on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast I want to consider a phrase I know you've heard before, don't burn your bridges, alongside a less common idea, burn the boats. It's a fiery mash-up this week. We're going to explore why it's important to ​keep the bridges, burn the boats​

Preemptive Quitting

Preemptive Quitting

This week's episode of ​The Transforming Anxiety​ is literally straight from my heart to yours. We're talking about ​preemptive quitting​ this week. Why? Because this is the sit-down-pay-attention-clear-the-decks talk I had to have with myself recently…

Underneath the Conversation

Underneath the Conversation

Time for some real talk: this week on ​The Transforming Anxiety Podcast​, we're going ​underneath the conversation​...

Y'know how when you're talking with someone, there are the words that are actually being said, the back-and-forth dialogue that is happening out loud...and then there's the inner conversation you're having ABOUT the conversation?

Your Charging Station

Your Charging Station

This week's episode of ​The Transforming Anxiety Podcast​ starts out with a funny story about my brother's granny-in-law...and then segues into an exploration on how we can refuel, restore, and recharge our bodies in order to create a deeper well of resilience and, ultimately, less anxiety for ourselves…

Rest for Resilience

Rest for Resilience

It's time for another talk about: ​rest.

But listen, we aren't talking about rest so that you can get more done. It's not about resting so that you can go more, power through, and push harder. This isn't about overcoming a necessary evil (meaning: rest) so that you can get to the "real" part of life (meaning: productivity).

Nope…

Your Daily Routine: Weekend Edition

Your Daily Routine: Weekend Edition

A few weeks ago I did a podcast about your daily routine and I heard from a lot of you that it was helpful and gave you a new way to think about and set up your day. And then I got a great question: what about the WEEKEND?…

Victim Mentality vs. Victim

Victim Mentality vs. Victim

You know I like to come at anxiety from all angles and I want to consider something that we haven't talked about on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast yet: victim mentality.

This is different from being the victim of a crime, of a natural disaster, of random violence or an accident or disease or some other action or event. Those are real and traumatic and difficult and that is NOT what we're discussing.

The Anatomy of Anxiety w/Dr. Ellen Vora

The Anatomy of Anxiety w/Dr. Ellen Vora

We have another interview this week, this time it's with Dr. Ellen Vora, author of The Anatomy of Anxiety: Understanding and Overcoming the Body's Fear Response

I read this about Ellen's work:

"This is a paradigm shift in how we view anxiety and the mind-body connection... Anxiety truly is our teacher, and this book is a must-have for anyone looking to heal." ~ Dr. Nicole LePera…

Change is Hard

Change is Hard

For most of us, there are things we know we want to change in our lives: habits, thoughts, ways of showing up in our relationships, career paths, how we're spending our time, what we do with our money...

But knowing we want, or even need, to change something vs. actually making the change? Well.

That's tricky.

Because: change is hard

Befriending Sleep

Befriending Sleep

This week on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast, I want to talk about something important: sleep. And not just that you should get quality sleep (sure) or that sleep is good for you (duh), but I want to explore the idea of befriending sleep  with you…
