Welcome to episode 361 of The OCD and Anxiety Podcast, a cutting-edge conversation on anxiety disorders and their intricacies. We delve deeply into the realities of Relationship Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (ROCD) and relationship anxiety with Sarah Yudkin, a relationship anxiety coach and the founder of You Love You Learn.

Through personal experiences and her journey from relationship anxiety to fulfilment and self-understanding, Sarah enhances our understanding of common relationship challenges arising from personality differences. We discuss the counterproductive ideal of the perfect "Disney" relationship, and how its pursuit often leads to anxiety.

In this in-depth dialogue, we traverse the benefits of meditation and breath work in managing anxiety, the role of self-awareness, and the importance of accepting feelings rather than seeking external validation. Learn from Sarah's insights as she reveals the transformational power of new information and changed perspectives on relationships.

Sharing intimate experiences of personal growth through anxiety, we cover the importance of a growth mindset, and how understanding and managing feelings is key in dealing with ROCD or relationship anxiety. Join us as we explore the profound influence of self-compassion, debunk self-critical thought patterns, and highlight the pivotal role flexibility plays in successful relationships.

Whether you are battling relationship OCD, relationship anxiety, or simply seeking insight into relationship dynamics, this episode promises a wealth of wisdom and tangible advice.
