We speak plainly about anxiety: how it shows up in parenting, work, health scares, grief, and daily life, and how small, steady actions can loosen its hold. We share what helped us most, from mindfulness and movement to asking for help and lowering the bar for “done.”

• naming anxiety in parenting, work and creative projects
• inbox refresh loops and worst-case thinking
• making something tangible to regain control
• imposter feelings and gym nerves
• health anxiety after scare and with new parenthood
• social anxiety in public spaces and restaurants
• mindfulness as brain training, noticing thoughts
• small steps to break cycles and build momentum
• exercise, sleep, and alcohol as anxiety levers
• medical support, therapy, pharmacists and groups
• grief’s shock window and living with the afters
• empathy for crippling anxiety and open conversation

The inbox is always open, Chris, isn’t it? The inbox is always open

If you’ve got anxiety and it’s crippling you, open up, speak to someone, tell them how you’re feeling
