In this first episode of Let’s Sit With This, we’re talking about what’s actually happening in your body when you feel anxious, panicked, or totally shut down. Using a simple “bear in the woods” metaphor, I’ll walk you through how your body responds to stress—even when there’s no obvious danger around.

You’ll learn why things like racing thoughts, numbness, or overwhelm aren’t signs that you’re broken—they’re signs your body is trying to protect you.

You don’t have to make sense of it.
 You don’t have to judge it.
 You can just listen—and care.

This episode was created by Kristen Callaway, MSMFT, LMFT — a licensed therapist and the voice behind Let’s Sit With This.
