In this raw and reflective solo episode of Unapologetically Anxious Me, I’m diving into the very real emotional toll that today’s political climate is having on so many of us, especially Black and Brown folks, parents, neurodivergent people, and anyone just trying to stay afloat in a world that feels like it’s on fire.
From threats to education, women’s rights, and LGBTQ+ protections, to the normalization of hate speech and rising authoritarianism, this moment in history is more than just politically exhausting’s emotionally destabilizing. I’ll talk about how chronic political stress shows up in our bodies and minds, how it intersects with racial trauma and intergenerational grief, and how I’m personally navigating the fear, anger, and fatigue.
This episode is part confession, part call to action, and part love letter to anyone feeling overwhelmed, under-protected, or straight-up done. You are not alone. Tune in to hear my thoughts, my story, and some ways we can begin to protect our peace even when the world is anything but peaceful.
Let's talk survival, sanity, and why we deserve joy no matter who in office.
