Anxiety is tough. It keeps you up at night, surprises you at the most inopportune times, and keeps you from pursuing important goals. One of the most difficult parts of anxiety is that you can't talk yourself out of it. Once that spiral starts it feels almost impossible to stop. What's a person to do?
Dr. Russ Kennedy (aka the Anxiety MD) gives some insight into how to think differently about our anxiety and practical tools to manage it. He offers a sophisticated and compassionate exploration of anxiety, challenging traditional psychological frameworks by examining the complex interplay between emotional experience, bodily responses, and unresolved psychological patterns.
Kennedy argues that anxiety isn't merely a cognitive phenomenon, but a sophisticated physiological response. Rather than viewing anxiety as purely mental, he positions it as a deeply embodied experience - an alarm mechanism stored within our physical systems that signals unprocessed emotional experiences.
Drawing from his dual professional background as a physician and comedian, Kennedy brings both clinical expertise and empathetic storytelling to his work. He advocates for a nuanced understanding of anxiety - not as a weakness, but as a complex adaptive response requiring compassionate, strategic intervention.
- Anxiety represents a sophisticated communication system from the body- Healing requires integrated, whole-person approaches- Personal struggles can be reframed as opportunities for growth and understanding
A compelling, research-informed perspective on mental health that destigmatizes and demystifies anxiety's intricate landscape.

There's a difficult dynamic in many relationships: over-functioning people (usually women) are together with an under-functioning partner. Dr. Ashley Southard has been a family therapist for over two decades and in the past couple of years has given voice to many unhealthy dynamics couples find themselves in.
"Over-functioning really speaks to kind of the emotional and mental labor that somebody is carrying in the relationship to keep that relationship going...they are doing the bulk of the relationship work. And conversely, then the under-functioning partner is not carrying the load. They are not really focusing on the relationship. They're not putting the effort and the energy into keeping this relationship functional and healthy. The over-functioning partner is doing nearly all of that work on their own and trying to hold this relationship together with their own hands without the help of their under-functioning partner." (Dr. Ashley Southard)

It's not often that I hear a metaphor that really sticks. When I heard my guest's approach to processing emotion and healing trauma I latched on immediately. Rachel talks about emotional movement through the metaphor of digestion. When we're kiddos we learn what bodily sensations mean (time to hit the loo!) when we're being potty trained. But who is teaching us about processing emotion? What do we do when we have normal emotional sensations in our bodies? We often learn from our caregivers to stuff them. Don't express them. That there are emotions that are bad or wrong. This results in backed-up emotional systems and it takes work to learn how to process our feelings. Rachel has dubbed her process "Emotional Potty Training" and she shares practical insight, tools, and personal stories on this week's episode. ---- Rachel Kaplan, MA, MFT is a licensed psychotherapist, mental-health educator, and author of “Feel, Heal & Let that Sh*t Go: Your Guide to Emotional Resilience and Lasting Self-Love” (New World Library).

I recorded this episode the day I got a breast biopsy.
I'm a pretty private person, but sharing what this experience was like from first lump and concerning symptoms to biopsy results is important *spoiler alert: results came back all clear!
What were my first symptoms? What is it like to get a mammogram? How did I manage my fear and worry about big scary possibilities? What does it mean to have dense breasts? Why did I do further testing even though my mammogram didn't show anything? What is a breast ultrasound? What is a breast MRI like? How was the experience of getting a breast biopsy?
In this episode, I tell you what the timeline and steps were to final results, how to deal with worry while waiting for testing (and the sleepless nights that inevitably show up), and explore why we don't share our hard things (or at least why I have a hard time with this). I also have a little rant about healthcare system issues in the US and what to do when you're worried about paying for testing and treatment.

How do we navigate our relationships with people who believe and vote differently than we do? In this episode I'm sharing how to deal with disappointment about the election. How do we maintain our compassion and connection with people who are close to us that voted differently? If we want to keep our relationships healthy and not drown into a pool of despair, let's explore some skills to pay attention to what we have control over instead of obsessing over what we don't.
Although I share my perspective from a more liberal perspective, this insight into human behavior, relationships, and how our brains work when it comes to biases and beliefs, will be helpful for people on both sides of the aisle.

This quote from Carl Jung has been rolling around in my mind:
"The first half of life is devoted to forming a healthy ego. The second half is going inward and letting go of it."
What does it mean to operate from a deeper place, beneath the ego? Who were we before the world told us who we should be? This episode explores these ideas of deeper conscious awareness of the illusion of separateness, the delight in being nobody, and the self-compassion that is necessary to accept and love others.

This is part 1 of a series about entrepreneurship. Originally, the series was going to be very practical, sharing the nuts and bolts of how to start or grow a business (cue the commentary about deciding on a product/service, marketing, customer service). But then I remembered that AI exists and you can so easily get input tailored to what you want by paying attention to the prompts you're using.
Instead, how about we talk about how to know what NOT to pay attention to? How do you feel proud of what you're putting your name on? How do you navigate the feelings that come with entrepreneurship?
All that and more coming to you in this series. This solo episode is about how I got started, some of the advantages I had, and realistically how to create a business when you've got little ones you're in charge of.

Just A Moment (JAM) are bite-sized episodes with thoughts or practices that aren't quite big enough to ride the full episode ride. The insights shared in these little JAMs are meant to bring more mindfulness and self-compassion to your life.
This JAM is all about worry. How do we treat that little (or big) part of ourself that clings to worry with all their might? Worry isn't just an abstract THING somewhere out there. It's a feeling experienced by a part of ourselves. We often want to kick those feelings to the curb, because who wants to feel worry (or anger or fear or anxiousness), but we don't realize that we are effectively telling part of our very self, "You're not welcome here." This JAM will help you exercise compassion toward that part of yourself with a simple visualization and an awareness of how we talk to those "unlovely" parts of ourselves.

Dr. Diana Londoño has an inspiring story about her path to becoming a doctor and her experiences with burnout. Her journey began when she watched her father suffer from illness and noticed how little dignity he received in healthcare. This motivated her to bring compassion and respect back into the medical field.
She emphasizes that really listening to patients and addressing their fears and emotions is crucial. Dr. Londoño believes that leaders in healthcare should be empathetic and curious. She also highlights the importance of self-care to combat burnout. Stress can manifest physically, leading to issues like asthma and joint pain, as the body reacts with a fight or flight response, which can cause digestive problems too.
Finding purpose and having a solid support system are key to managing stress. Establishing self-care routines and setting boundaries can help prevent burnout. She points out that emotional connections are vital for healthy relationships, and issues like porn-induced erectile dysfunction can stem from dopamine depletion.
Dr. Londoño argues that society needs to embrace emotions to reduce suffering. She suggests practical changes like avoiding inflammatory media, engaging in creative activities, and fostering deeper connections with others. The themes of unity, love, surrender, and personal growth are central to her message. She encourages letting go of ego and fear while embracing our interconnectedness.
Support, whether from higher sources or friends, is crucial during tough times. The conversation also touches on self-discovery, self-care, and choosing relationships that reflect our values. Ultimately, it’s about being curious, introspective, and willing to face discomfort to foster personal growth and build deeper connections with others.

I'm not going to tell you how to get OUT, but how to be IN stuckness by changing the way you think about it.
Here are the 7 perspective shifts I'm exploring today:
can you let yourself be stuck...for now?
can you remember when you weren't stuck and believe it’s not forever?
can you make a small change (even if it’s unrelated to the area you feel stuck in); are you actually paralyzed because you’re trying to change too much too fast
can you actually do something but you’re afraid?
is it not so much you that’s stuck as it is something you need to say that’s stuck? Where do you feel “stuck” in your body?
do you know how to get unstuck but you don’t feel like you can? Can you be okay with choosing to be stuck on purpose for now?
do you feel stuck because you are comparing yourself to others?
My mantra when I'm stuck: "Please help me be present."
Being stuck is not bad. Use it to clarify where you want to go, lean into gratitude, and claim your autonomy and ability to choose.
