Carrie Thompson is currently a CPA (certified public accountant) working in regulatory reporting with a passion for numbers but an even greater passion for people.

In 2016, she was diagnosed with a generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), which, at the time, felt like a death sentence.

Since then, she has spent time exploring the world of mental health and educating herself on the causes and the cures.  Because of the isolation, she felt in the beginning, the more she learned, the more she shared and spoke up about the importance of monitoring our mental health.

During a period of self-discovery, she decided to combine her love of reading and people with her newfound knowledge and experience.

Writing a book to bring more awareness to the importance of mental health and the commonality of having a mental health disorder just seemed like the perfect fit.

Besides reading and writing, she loves to spend time with her family, friends and sweet kitty, Albie, fitness of any sort and baking.

If you've ever felt alone when dealing with anxiety, then let me tell you, that you are not alone.

Anxiety can be incredibly isolating, as with many other mental health issues. The most common phrase that is said is: "I feel completely alone."

Creating a community of like-minded humans who are all healing, growing, learning and overcoming anxiety together, is key in overcoming anxiety.

In this episode, Anna discusses the power of community in your healing journey.

2021 is here! It's been an incredible past 12 months, as difficult 2020 has been, it's a brand new year and with that comes growth, opportunities and healing.

The word I'm bringing into 2021 is "community"

Community is defined as the condition of sharing or having certain attitudes and interests in common.

This is one of the most important aspects of healing. Being a part of a tribe of like-minded women who are on their path of healing, growth, and overcoming anxiety together.
