🎙️ REPOST: Overcoming OCD & Anxiety for High-Achieving Women – Interview with Erin Davis
Had the honor of being a guest on the Pete vs Anxiety Podcast, and I'm thrilled to share this powerful conversation with you! Host Pete and I dive deep into the unique ways OCD shows up for high-achieving women—and why traditional anxiety advice often misses the mark. 💜
If you've ever been told "it's just stress" when you know it's something more, or if you've struggled for years without getting real help for your intrusive thoughts, this episode will validate your experience and give you hope!
🎯 What You'll Discover:
Why OCD Gets Misdiagnosed:
🔹 The sneaky ways OCD shows up that therapists often miss [00:05:00]
🔸 Why women are told "it's just stress" when it's actually OCD [00:03:00]
🔹 The difference between anxiety and OCD (and why it matters!) [00:08:00]
The Narcissism Fear Trap:
🔸 Why thoughtful, kind women worry they're narcissists [00:15:00]
🔹 How OCD attacks what you value most in the sneakiest ways [00:18:00]
🔸 The difference between narcissistic behavior and OCD intrusive thoughts [00:20:00]
Real Talk About Treatment:
🔹 Why "Dr. Google" makes OCD worse, not better [00:12:00]
🔸 The exposure therapy approach that actually works [00:25:00]
🔹 How to support someone with OCD (without giving reassurance) [00:35:00]
