Too many anxiety tools, not sure which to use? In this episode, I’ll teach you a simple 2-step rule  to match the right tool to your stress level. You’ll learn why big anxiety doesn’t require big strategies—it requires easy, low-thinking tools—and how to build a personalized toolbox that grows more effective the more you practice. 

You’ll learn how to:

• Quickly rate the intensity of your anxiety
• Match strategies to your anxiety level with confidence
• Turn once “hard” tools into automatic go-to’s
• Expand your toolbox so you’re never stuck without options
