100 Episodes of the Podcast!

100 Episodes of the Podcast!

What, what?! Today marks 100 episodes of The Transforming Anxiety Podcast!

I could say cliche things like, "I can't believe it," or, "I wasn't envisioning the 100th episode when I started the podcast" buuuuut I CAN believe it and I have totally been envisioning hundreds of episodes of the podcast

Emotions & Moods & Personalities

Emotions & Moods & Personalities

Happy New Year! To kick off 2021, we're going to talk about one of my favorite things: feelings. 🙃 Specifially: emotions and moods and personalities...

See, I've come to a very UNscientific belief re: our feelings. I think ~80% of our day-to-day emotions come from what's right in front of us…

There is No Going Back

There is No Going Back

Today, we're going to do a little science + coaching. You ready?

First, the science: we live in a universe that is constantly expanding. Ever since the Big Bang, the galaxies in the universe have been moving away from each other. The universe is SO vast that it may as well be infinite...meaning the universe is on a never-ending path of expansion…

Discomfort & Growth

Discomfort & Growth

We've all just lived through a *highly* uncomfortable time. Still are, in fact. 2020 proved to be quite the crash course in discomfort...

And since we don't know what we don't know about 2021, I thought now would be a good time to talk about discomfort and growth

What's the Anxiety Impulse?

What's the Anxiety Impulse?

Nearing the end of the year that we've gone through has me returning to the basics in a lot of ways: simple meals, lots of walking and no-frills yoga, and re-watching classic holiday movies for the hundredth time.

And I wanted to do something similar here on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast this week and get back to the basics by considering: where does this whole anxiety experience come from, anyway? What's the impulse for anxiety?…

Emotional Fatigue

Emotional Fatigue

Are you feeling worn out?

For so many reasons, some obvious and some less so, many people are experiencing complete exhaustion right now. A lot of my clients are wanting coaching on feeling wiped out and what to do about it. And so I thought it was time we talked about this weariness on the podcast…

Uncertainty, Canceling, & Change

Uncertainty, Canceling, & Change

Wow. What a year last week was, huh? (Is that joke getting old yet?? Haha...)

2020 keeps piling on the intensity for sure. And I want to take a few minutes this week and talk with you about uncertainty, canceling, and change. Because it seems as if a lot of us are stuck in one gear of 2020-intensity and could benefit from hitting the *pause* button and coming up for air to remind ourselves what's what…

Survival of the Nurtured

Survival of the Nurtured

You've heard of "survival of the fittest," yeah? The idea that those most suited to the environment are the most likely to survive? And yeah, there's a lot to Darwin's theory of natural selection of course. We see this play out all around us: from the animals in nature to the boardrooms in corporate America…

Self-Care, 2020-Level

Self-Care, 2020-Level

Do you remember when "self-care" meant things like bubble baths...and it worked?! I think back to, well, any time before 2020 (or any time before 2017? Let's be honest, I dunno...) when the self-care practices that I went through each day, things like yoga and meditation and hot tea and connecting with friends and laughing with my family, really nourished me and filled me up…
