Show Notes

Going to be real with you here, this was a hard one for me to record. But I believe in being honest and pulling the curtain back on everything you see online.

In this episode we discuss high functioning anxiety and at the end I leave you with 6 very valuable take aways that have helped me change my mindset over the past few years.

Recently I started to really focus on healing parts of me I'd rather ignore. But after my divorce I was facing complete burnout and my health really started to suffer, so I knew I had to dig deeper into why I place so much pressure on myself. It was time to release myself from the chokehold this mindset had on my life. 

I have always been a type A, perfectionist, overachieving, people pleaser who presents as an (almost) completely normal human being. ;)  But I have also been fighting my own mental battles over the years, whether I wanted to acknowledge it or not. 

It wasn't until my own daughter started therapy to address her anxiety that I started to connect the dots. Many of the thoughts and feelings I've had since childhood were all tied to anxiety, and I didn't even know it. 

Listen in for more. Thanks for being here.
