  • Jess' Exciting and Anxious News

    Jess has exciting news!...That brings up a lot of anxiety. We talk about how even these good opportunities can be terrifying in multiple ways, and about how having people who are willing to both support you and call you out if you are not doing things well can help a lot when facing new challenges.


    Theme music by the wonderful Miki Anderson.

  • Unmasking Anxiety

    Welcome to our first episode! Here we introduce ourselves and some of the aspects of anxiety we are used to facing, including alarm bells over seemingly safe things, masking in order to meet what we assume are other's expectations, and navigating the space between encouraging others to be fully themselves while knowing that this struggle is a journey we are also on.

    Thanks to Miki Anderson for our background music, small children and dogs for chewing up our stress balls, and our support herd who has been cheerleading us through this terrifying but exciting endeavor!

  • Communicating Through Anxiety

    Our First Guest! Elizabeth McCorvey joins us to talk about communicating and facing anxiety as she tackles the plethora of experiences she has had in her life as a social worker, musician, anti-racism educator, HERD instructor, and chicken tenderer who does not appreciate turkeys. She was gracious enough to share her beautiful song Phenomenal with us and discuss her path towards learning that in order to use your voice, you first have to find awareness of yourself and the moments around you. Join us as we laugh through our slowly growing willingness to fail in order to practice who we want to become.

    Enneagram mentioned in the show is a personality test able to be found online that sorts personalities on a field of 9 different categories. It can be used as a means of self-awareness and exploration but, like all things that strive to tell us which specific category we are, should not be taken rigidly or without acknowledging room for individual spice. It can be found online in various forms for free.
    "My grandmother's Hands: Racialized Trauma and the Pathway to Mending our Hearts and Bodies" is a book written by Resmaa Menakem and is able to be found wherever books are borrowed or sold.
