Ep 87: How I Manage Anxious Thoughts


Listen Later

Anxious thoughts are something that a lot of perfectionists experience. Even though I’m by no means an expert on this topic, I thought it might be helpful to share some of my experience, the way I look at anxious thoughts and the practical things I do to manage those thoughts.

Anxiety can be a very serious and challenging experience for many, but in this episode, I want to help you reframe the way you look at your anxious thoughts. I’m also sharing plenty of incredible resources that can help you with this - I hope you find them helpful!

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • How I personally manage my anxious thoughts
  • Practical ways to feel better in moments of anxiety
  • How anxiety protects us from vulnerability and life feeling ‘too good’
  • Why it’s important not to identify as an anxious person
  • How to reframe anxiety so you can still live your best life
