In this soulful and uplifting episode, I reconnect with Sheryl Paul (now Sheryl Lisa Finn), a beloved return guest whose work has had a profound impact on my own journey. If you haven’t already, I highly recommend going back and listening to our first conversation - it’s a beautiful contrast to where I was then, and how far life has taken me now.

This episode is a heartfelt deep dive into the emotional roots of anxiety and what it truly means to build self-trust. Sheryl and I explore topics that are so aligned with the essence of this podcast - from the wisdom hidden in intrusive thoughts to the deeper layers of grief and shame that often go unacknowledged.

You’ll walk away from this conversation feeling more connected, more grounded, and more equipped to face your inner world with compassion and clarity.

In this episode, we explore: - Why anxiety is a messenger, not a problem - The link between intrusive thoughts and unmet needs - Why healing anxiety means working with grief and shame - What true self-trust really looks like — and how to build it

Whether you’re deep in your healing journey or just beginning to explore your emotional world, Sheryl’s gentle wisdom is like a balm for the anxious mind. This is one to revisit again and again.

Let’s go to the show.
