<link>https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/6cwwi9/PoP_Anxiety_FINAL6a4bg.mp3</link>
<description>From someone who actually understands how hard the bad anxiety days can be  This episode is about anxiety. Lots and lots of anxiety talk. As a Christian Life Coach who works with quite a few women who navigate mental health issues like depression and anxiety, I often open up about my own personal struggles.   I read a journal entry live and go behind the scenes letting listeners in on what a REALLY hard day looks like for someone like me who struggles with Generalized Anxiety Disorder.   I also talk a lot about the craziness and panic I feel related to the overwhelm I experience driving in unfamiliar areas. It's a bit irrational. But, that's the thing, anxiety often seems irrational to others. And, at the same time, the person who is struggling with the thoughts feels completely paralyzed and overwhelmed.    This episode is for anyone who is or knows someone experiencing anxiety or is curious about learning more about anxiety.    You can also expect to:     Gain insight into what life looks like for someon...</description>
