We all come to a point in our lives when giving up can feel like the only option. We feel hopeless, scared, confused, dejected, pessimistic, defeated. I know I've been feeling that pressure lately. This episode features a journal entry I wrote during and after a panic attack I was experiencing. And usually I wouldn't like to admit things like having panic attacks. And I especially am not one to share journal entries with anyone. But here I am. Yet, as scary as it was, I felt like maybe I could share this one for anyone who may be struggling with these same issues. and for myself, both this time and the inevitable next time. One personal goal of this podcast is to take myself out of my comfort zone and focus on expressing vulnerability. And this episode, has definitely allowed me to accomplish both. so yay for that! But here comes the even scarier part... publishing! We can do this!
