Podcasts about anxious

On this special episode of the Little Kids, Big hearts podcast, LKBH host Todd Loyd has a conversation with the actor and legend Judge Reinhold. Judge appeared on our podcast at the start of the month — exploring feelings of nervousness and practicing some ways to cope with four big-hearted kids.Now he's back to share his OWN experiences and strategies. It turns out that even having decades of experience as a famous actor doesn't make you immune from feeling anxious, and Judge says that's actually a good thing. He explains: "If you're not nervous, then you're not going to do a good job. And that's how you break down that nervousness and turn it into fuel. It's a good thing. It's going to drive you. Adrenaline can get away from you but it can also make you so sharp and make you better than you. That's that special thing that will make you better than you thought you were, that adrenaline. You have to make it your friend." Learn more about the episode: https://playsparkler.org/feeling-nervous/Or find more resources on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LittleKidsBigHearts

What if supporting your anxious teen didn't mean constantly doing more - but instead, meant becoming more present, intentional, and self-aware in the moments that matter? In this episode, I'm joined by Holly Swenson - wellness blogger, registered nurse, and author of Stop, Drop, Grow, & Glow - to explore how conscious parenting, grounded in self-care and deep inner work, can reshape how we show up for our teens. More About Holly: Holly Swenson is a best-selling, award-winning author, and mom of four. Through her book Stop, Drop, Grow, & Glow, Holly offers a refreshing take on modern parenting - one rooted in mindfulness, purpose, and self-compassion. With her unique background as a nurse and mother, she empowers parents to slow down, shift their mindset, and lead from their values instead of stress or guilt. Holly's “5 Rights of Parenting” invites parents to tune in to themselves, approach challenges with clarity, and create deeper, more authentic connections with their children. If you've ever questioned how to care for your teen without losing yourself in the process, this conversation is your permission slip to pause, reflect, and thrive alongside your child. Parenting can be hard - but it doesn't have to feel like a constant struggle.

We talked to our therapist friend Leah Aguirre (@leahaguirrelcsw) about how to deal with our anxiety after the attacks in the Middle East this weekend.

Many people misunderstand their attachment style, overidentify with labels, or confuse trauma responses with personality traits. Today we break down secure and insecure attachment, discuss how anxious and avoidant dynamics form, and look at how emotional abuse and trauma erode self-trust. Many highly sensitive people (HSPs) often internalize critical voices and lose their sense of emotional safety. With radical honesty, self-awareness, boundaries, and emotional maturity, we can rebuild secure attachment—starting with our relationship to ourselves.

In today's episode, Gina discusses four core hidden patterns of thought that can keep us in the negative anxiety cycle.  Negative self-talk is a major factor in keeping our anxiety around.  The other thought patterns are just as insidious.  Practices for dealing with and even eliminating these harmful thought patterns are suggested.Please visit our Sponsor Page to find all the links and codes for our awesome sponsors!https://www.theanxietycoachespodcast.com/sponsors/ Thank you for supporting The Anxiety Coaches Podcast.

Together, we explore four key areas that can help uproot these anxious tendencies and cultivate a state of peace and calm. I emphasize the importance of addressing these roots rather than merely treating the symptoms, as addressing the superficial aspects of anxiety often results in the same issues resurfacing in different forms.The first root I discuss is negative self-talk, an insidious habit that can go unnoticed yet significantly impacts our mental well-being. I invite listeners to engage in a reflective journaling practice where they can track moments of negative self-dialogue throughout their day. By revisiting these thoughts and reframing them with kindness, we can begin to break the cycle of self-criticism and cultivate a more compassionate internal narrative.Next, I tackle the expectations we place on ourselves and others. Many of us wrestle with unrealistic standards, believing we must always be in control and perfect. I suggest reframing these expectations by asking ourselves if we can hold our desires lightly and embrace the unpredictability of life. This shift in perspective allows us to approach challenges with grace and flexibility, rather than succumbing to panic when things don't align with our plans. #anxiety #anxiousthinking #rootsofanxiety #negativeselftalk #unrealisticexpectations #shouldthinking #innercritic #takingthingspersonally #awareness #selfcompassion #mentalhealth #emotionalwellbeing #stress #worry #fear #copingstrategies #mentalhealthawareness #selfcare #mindfulness #therapy #personalgrowth #emotionalhealth #mentalwellness #resilience #healing #innerpeace #support #mentalillness #anxietyrelief #youarenotalone #itsokaytonotbeokay #GinaRyan #ACP #anxietycoachespodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode is all about the anxious avoidant dynamic. How we get stuck and how to get unstuck.

The Traveling Historian: Bill Whiteside Forty-Ninth Episode: After selling software for 30 years, Bill abandoned that career to finish writing a book he started researching to keep his mind engaged during his time on the road. He was intrigued by an incident from early in Winston Churchill's first term as Britain's prime minister. As he dug into the story from multiple angles, his diversion evolved into an obsession. The more he learned, the more it became a book he had to write. That book is The Attack that Shocked the World: Winston Churchill and the Royal Navy's Assault on the French Fleet, to be published by the U.S. Naval Institute Press in Annapolis, Maryland. In the meantime, given what he learned in researching and writing that, he wrote and published another one: Everybody Knows a Salesman Can't Write a Book. Bill joins me to talk about history, writing, learning, and whatever else crosses our minds.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik sits down with Dr. Jack Hinman, licensed clinical psychologist and founder of Engage Young Adult Transitions. They explore why today's youth are facing rising levels of anxiety, disconnection, and stalled independence. Dr. Jack shares how the pandemic exposed—not created—this crisis, emphasizing the breakdown in real-world connections, lack of resiliency, and the cultural shift toward canceling rather than engaging in growth-building relationships. The conversation dives into Dr. Jack's unique model of therapeutic support that goes beyond traditional therapy, helping young adults build sustainable habits, systems, and emotional resilience while fostering independence. ABOUT THE GUEST:Dr. Jack Hinman is a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with young adults in diverse therapeutic settings, from inpatient hospitals to outdoor therapy programs. As founder of Engage Young Adult Transitions, Dr. Jack helps young people build real-life skills, navigate anxiety, and foster identity formation through a combination of therapeutic guidance, community connection, and practical support systems. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Today's youth struggle with anxiety rooted in disconnection, not just mental health issues. Social avoidance during and after the pandemic has magnified anxiety and stalled identity development. Effective support requires consistent, relationship-based influence rather than control. Building systems and habits (not rigid goals) fosters long-term independence. Parents also need to develop resiliency to support their struggling children without over-controlling. Engage's integrated model blends therapy, coaching, academic support, and daily living skills to empower young adults. CONNECT WITH DR.

I've received several requests for an episode on anxiety. Just like the ADHD episode 112, this topic is personal to me because I've experienced it. I will preface this by reminding you–I am not a healthcare professional, I am not offering medical advice, a diagnosis, or treatment. I still think it's important you gals hear others' perspectives, both so you'll feel more comfortable talking about anxiety or seeking support if you need it, and also to help you better understand those who experience it..   .   .A full transcript of this episode is available in the 10 for Teens + Tweens Ep. 130 show notes on EmpowerfulGirls.com.

How do you stay grounded when everything feels like too much? In this episode, I walk you through the internal and external factors that tend to trigger a stress response, and how to shift into a more centered, responsive state. From understanding your baseline wiring and physiological cues to reconnecting with your values and priorities, I share a framework that helps me move from reactivity into choice.    If you've ever walked away from a situation wishing you had handled it differently, this episode will help you build the awareness and tools to respond with greater clarity and confidence next time. This is a skill you can develop. And the more you practice it, the more grounded you'll feel, no matter what's happening around you.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://thejoyfulpractice.com/213   Learn more and register for the Leadership for Women Lawyers Group Coaching and Mastermind (July to December 2025): https://www.uplevelcpd.com/courses/july-to-december-2025-leadership-for-women-lawyers-group-coaching-and-mastermind-experience   Register for the upcoming webinar, "2025 Mid-Year Reset: Evaluate, Recalibrate and Recharge" on Thursday, June 26, 2025: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_SZ0VsgD0QjySv_mbu9WI3w

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy addresses the concerning trend of negative self-perception among kids today, which is often exacerbated by societal narratives labeling them as an anxious generation. She explores the implications of these self-definitions, questioning their healthiness and how parents and educators can respond effectively. Dr. Kathy emphasizes the importance of speaking truth, positivity, and encouragement into the lives of children to counteract these negative labels. Additionally, she highlights the partnership with Summit Ministries, a program that offers engaging camps where teens can explore significant questions in a supportive community, fostering both personal growth and friendship. Tune in for valuable insights on nurturing resilience and self-esteem in today's youth.

Yesterday Yvette Cooper announced a national inquiry into the grooming gangs scandal after the Casey Review found that a disproportionate number of Asian men were responsible and that governments and authorities had failed to step in over fears of racism. Anxious to press Labour on their U-turn – memorably, Starmer accused the Tories of ‘jumping on the far-right bandwagon' – Kemi Badenoch held a press conference, joined by victims of the gangs. ‘I'm not doing politics now, when I'm in the Houses of Parliament, when I'm in the Commons, I will do politics', she said. But can you really take the politics out of the grooming gangs scandal?Elsewhere, Donald Trump has fled the G7. Although this isn't the first time he has cut a G7 visit short, it does mean he snubbed meetings with Zelensky and the Mexican president. Have Labour got what they wanted out of the conference? And what should we read into Trump's early exit?Lucy Dunn speaks to Tim Shipman and James Heale.Produced by Oscar Edmondson. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Paradox of Certainty: How the Need for Answers Keeps You AnxiousChasing certainty is one of the biggest traps in OCD and anxiety recovery. In this episode, Matt Codde, LCSW, explains why the need to feel 100% sure only feeds the anxiety loop—and how learning to tolerate uncertainty is the real path to freedom.

In this episode of Driving Change, neuroscientist and storytelling expert Dr. Angus Fletcher returns to share insights from his latest book, Primal Intelligence. Drawing from his research with the U.S. Army Special Operations, Fortune 50 companies, and education systems, Fletcher unpacks how the brain's ancient systems—emotion, imagination, intuition, and common sense—shape the way we think, lead, and connect. This isn't just theory; it's actionable neuroscience that rewires how we respond to stress, how we plan, and how we grow. Jeff and Angus explore everything from battlefield psychology to parenting to sales conversations, all through the lens of primal brain power. This episode will change how you view intelligence. If you've ever struggled with anxiety, leadership under pressure, communication breakdowns, or helping others grow, this conversation delivers practical tools rooted in science—not self-help fluff. Learn how elite military units build confidence, how to tap into your brain's imagination for clearer decision-making, and why the stories you tell yourself matter more than any strategy. Whether you're a parent, leader, coach, or entrepreneur, this episode offers real techniques to become more grounded, resilient, and effective in how you show up. Emotion is the First Intelligence – Fear and anger aren't enemies—they're signals telling us how many plans we have. Four Primal Brain Powers – Imagination (planning), Intuition (opportunity spotting), Emotion (threat signaling), and Common Sense (choosing the best plan). Plan-Making Beats Panic – People freeze not from danger, but from having no plan. Teaching people how to plan reduces fear and anger. Storytelling is Neural – The brain organizes information through action-based narratives. It's not once-upon-a-time—it's how we think. Teach Planning, Not Just Plans – The goal of leadership is to develop planners, not just manage plans. Practice Under Low Stress – Communication habits formed in calm moments will show up under pressure. Authenticity Over Evasion – People can't always detect truth, but they immediately sense evasiveness. Share what you fear. Counterfactual Thinking Builds Vision – Asking "what if" about small changes with big outcomes activates the brain's default mode network. Kids (and Adults) Need Imperfect Practice – Tolerating messy planning helps grow initiative, resilience, and brain power. Sales = Story Anticipation – Great salespeople help others discover their own story faster and with more clarity than they could alone. 00:00 – Welcome + Book Launch Tease 01:45 – Ohio's Hidden Intelligence + Emotional Evolution 10:00 – Primal Intelligence Framework 13:00 – Special Ops and the Power of Plans 19:00 – Childhood Programming and Brain Plasticity 24:30 – Imagination as Thinking Tool 29:30 – Youth, Screens & Neural Pathways 33:00 – Leadership, Weird Ideas & Innovation 38:45 – Storytelling as Internal Narrative 43:00 – Relationships & Communication Needs 46:00 – Communicating Under Pressure 50:00 – Neurocentric Questions & Sales 54:30 – Authenticity, Fear, and Trust 58:00 – What Led to Primal Intelligence 1:00:00 – How to Learn More (Book, Quiz, Site) Primal Intelligence book page (Penguin Random House) – Available August 19 Free Quiz & Diagnostic: OperationHuman.com Why You Should ListenTop 10 Takeaways⏱️ Chapter Markings (by topic)How to find more from Dr. FletcherDr. Angus Fletcher on LinkedIn: LinkedIn Profile

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!The most dangerous trend in mental health today isn't anxiety itself—it's how we've been taught to think about it. Dr. Caroline Leaf, a leading neuroscientist and author of "Help in a Hurry," reveals why 100% of people experience anxiety and how the current medical model of labeling and diagnosing mental health "disorders" creates more harm than healing. Through groundbreaking research spanning 40 years, she shares her most vulnerable discovery: we are 99% mind and 1% brain, making every thought we think a physical force that either builds or destroys our cellular health. The conversation takes a powerful turn when she explains her 63-day healing protocol that has helped thousands rewire toxic thought patterns, proving that what we've been told about mental health has been fundamentally backwards—and how anyone struggling with overwhelm, anxiety, or stress today holds the power to transform their mind and heal their body.Pre order Dr. Leaf's new book ​​Help in a Hurry: Simple Tips for Finding Peace When You're Overwhelmed, Anxious, or StressedDr. Leaf's book Switch on Your Brain: The Key to Peak Happiness, Thinking, and HealthDr. Leaf's book Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess: 5 Simple, Scientifically Proven Steps to Reduce Anxiety, Stress, and Toxic ThinkingDr. Leaf on InstagramThe Doctor Leaf Show on YouTubeIn this episode you will learn:Why anxiety is your brain's warning system, not a disease, and how to read its signals correctlyThe shocking truth about self-diagnosis culture and why labeling yourself creates the exact problems you're trying to solveHow your thoughts become physical networks in your brain and body within secondsWhy 35-98% of all physical illnesses originate from toxic thinking patternsThe exact 63-day process neuroscientists use to rewire trauma and heal emotional woundsFor more information go to https://www.lewishowes.com/1785For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Rangan Chatterjee  – greatness.lnk.to/1716SCDr. Joe Dispenza – greatness.lnk.to/1702SCTJ Power – greatness.lnk.to/1741SC Get more from Lewis!

There's a difference between being self-aware—and being self-stuck.In this episode, I'm talking about the fine line between relating to your struggles and building your entire identity around them. Mental health awareness is powerful and necessary—but when the memes, the labels, and the constant self-diagnosing become your main personality trait, it can quietly keep you from actually moving forward.We'll explore: – Why over-identifying with your struggles can feel safe—but keep you stuck – The role of community, language, and internet culture in shaping your identity – How to honor your mental health without making it your entire self – What it really looks like to heal, grow, and lead yourself forwardThis one might challenge you—but in the best way. Let's trade labels for leadership.The Collab Studio: Payment plan: https://app.moonclerk.com/pay/huzc05sqykzPay-In-Full: https://app.moonclerk.com/pay/2xdvrpnxaejiVisit macierenae.com to learn more about Macie & her work!Interested in working with her?

As Jesus is in Mary and Martha's home, He begins to teach. With Mary at His feet and Martha anxiously hosting, Jesus' focus is on His ultimate priority. He is the Word that speaks, shapes, stirs, and secures. Often we forget God has spoken, and the importance of carving out intentional moments with the Lord. Mary did the best thing, Martha chose to do a good thing but was filled with anxiety and missed the Word right there in her home. What's best for all of us, is to be spending time at the feet of Jesus - something that will never be taken away from us.

You're not crazy. You're just stuck in a system that profits from your panic.In this fiery, long-overdue episode, Jenny rips the bandaid off a truth no one in the healing world wants to say out loud: both the medical and holistic spaces — yes, even the well-meaning parts — are accidentally keeping you anxious. If you've been buried under protocols, obsessed with triggers, or terrified to miss a supplement, this one's for you.We're pulling the curtain back on the fear factory disguised as wellness. Inside this episode, you'll learn:How “root cause” culture is often just another fear loopWhy more tests, labels, and protocols aren't helping — they're hurtingWhat actually creates safety in your body (and it's not another detox)This episode is your permission slip to stop micromanaging your body and start building trust again. Let's ditch the fear, decode the symptoms, and take healing back into our own hands.

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!In this episode of Paige's Perspective, Paige gets real about something many of us are doing in the name of healing: self-monitoring everything—our sleep, food, steps, moods, routines. What starts as a tool for awareness can quickly turn into another form of anxiety and self-doubt, especially for those recovering from relational trauma.Paige shares her personal story of ditching her Apple Watch, the illusion of safety gadgets provide, and the deeper truth: real healing isn't something you track—it's something you feel.She explains why structure is helpful short-term, but ultimately, true empowerment means learning to trust yourself again—without needing a ring, app, or chart to tell you how you're doing.Plus: a powerful weekly challenge that invites you to tune back in to your body and instincts—and stop outsourcing your wisdom to tech.Support the showFind video clips and full length video from this episode on YouTube and our other social media pages!On the web:www.twfo.comOnline Course: www.independentlystrong.comUse code WHEELIES75 for 75% off the entire course!Soberlink Device:www.soberlink.com/wheelsCheck out our blog:https://twfo.com/blogFollow us on TikTok:https://tiktok.com/@twfo_coupleFollow us on Instagram:https://instagram.com/twfo_couple/Follow us on Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/TWFOCoupleFollow us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@twfo_coupleFind Taylor Counseling Group:https://taylorcounselinggroup.com/Donate to Counseling for the Future Foundation:Donate Here

In this episode of the Ideology Podcast, Drew and Mick reflect on an unexpected and encouraging trend in American spirituality—particularly among Gen Z. Despite cultural decline in church affiliation in recent decades, new data shows a surprising and significant reversal: a growing hunger for Jesus among young adults.Why is this happening? What has shifted in our culture, and how do we understand it biblically and pastorally? Drew and Mick unpack the factors driving this trend, including the spiritual void left by secularism, the collapse of the "secular gospel," and the longing for connection, meaning, and transcendence. They reflect on how the pandemic acted as an accelerant, exposing the bankruptcy of materialism and opening hearts to the eternal.Along the way, they explore deep theological themes like the nature of sin, the loss of self apart from God, and the hope found only in the person of Jesus Christ. Drawing from thinkers like Augustine and Athanasius, they articulate a vision of Christian anthropology that contrasts starkly with the self-focused, therapeutic culture of our time.This is an episode about revival, not in hype but in real hunger—and how the Church can be a winsome life raft rather than a culture warrior on a sinking ship.Connect with us:Email: ideologypc@gmail.comYoutube/Instagram: @ideologypcFeel free to share, subscribe, rate, and/or comment.Resources referenced or alluded to:On the Incarnation by AthanasiusConfessions by AugustineThe Abolition of Man by C.S.

I've been saying for a long, long time that raising kids in the digital age is like the Wild Wild West! We are all just trying to make the best decisions for our kids with the info we currently have at any given time. And it's really hard to know what the right decision is when you're a pioneer parent (as all of us are here - raising kids at a time in human history where tech is causing us to move at a more rapid pace than ever before). In his book “The Anxious Generation,” Jonathan Haidt pulls back the curtain on how online content streams and everywhere screens have changed the experience of growing up in a tech-addicted world.Adolescence has always been a tough time for kids AND parents. They're struggling with changing bodies, raging hormones, and the pressure to prepare for adulthood; we're trying to find the balance between keeping them safe and letting them learn from their mistakes. But modern teens and tweens are surrounded by algorithmically curated content that's targeted at their fears of inadequacy.My daughter, Avery, and I lived through the explosion of social media targeted at teens. This time on the pod, we break down “The Anxious Generation,” and how Avery is one of the unfortunates described in the book - a card carrying member of The Anxious Generation. Sigh.

As soon as I saw the title of the upcoming book by Dr. Thom Rainer, I knew I had to have him on the show. He told me right away to call him Thom and it was easy because he's friendly and down to earth. But his newest book, “The Anxious Generation Goes to Church” is anything but down to earth. It is a compelling, well researched and fascinating look at what our kids are navigating with church involvement while growing up in a tech saturated world. And while it would be easy to believe kids nowadays really aren't interested in church, Thom's research shows something different. He has found that kids today are interested in spiritual things and are longing for a place to belong. Inviting them to church is not something we should be afraid of. Rather, it should be at the top of our list of things to do to reach the hearts of today's youth. And if it's our own kids we're talking about, Thom's advice is that we model showing up for church and actually being involved in church. That is the best way for our kids to care about being part of church—by seeing that we care. You will find this conversation encouraging and hopeful. Thom is a loving father and grandfather and his wisdom and kindness felt like a warm hug to me. I loved having him on the show and you will love hearing him share. Go pre-order his book today so you can read it as soon as it hits the shelves.

What do you do when your anxiety has become their anxiety? In this listener Q&A, Justin and Kylie respond to Amy from Melbourne—a self-diagnosed helicopter parent whose 9-year-old daughter now struggles with fear and risk aversion. With compassion and practical insight, they break down the difference between risky and dangerous play, explore the impact of parental anxiety, and offer real-world strategies to build your child’s confidence—without ignoring safety. KEY POINTS Risk ≠ Danger: Risky play involves challenge with decision-making and agency. Dangerous or hazardous play involves hidden threats kids can’t yet assess. Why Risky Play Matters: It improves mental health, builds confidence, reduces anxiety, enhances learning, and strengthens decision-making. Parental Anxiety is Contagious: When parents over-control, children miss the chance to develop autonomy and trust in their own judgement. Structure Builds Competence: Autonomy-supportive parenting isn’t “hands off”—it means offering guidance, boundaries, and support while allowing your child to step up gradually. Small Steps Lead to Big Growth: You don’t have to throw your child in the deep end. Micro-risks—like ordering lunch, paying for milk, or exploring a store aisle alone—build trust and resilience. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “The goal is to keep children as safe as necessary—not as safe as possible.” RESOURCES MENTIONED The Parenting Revolution by Dr Justin Coulson happyfamilies.com.au – More resources for autonomy-supportive parenting Submit your question: happyfamilies.com.au/podcast ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Start With a Conversation Gently acknowledge your own anxiety and let your child know you’re learning to trust her more. Introduce Low-Stakes Risks: Let her pay for something at the shops Send her to order lunch while you wait nearby Assign a small independent task at home Teach, Then Step Back Give your child the structure to succeed—rules, expectations, safety cues—then give them space to apply it. Increase Freedom Gradually As both your and your child’s confidence grows, slowly expand what she’s allowed to do without your help. Keep Safety Contextual Not every environment is safe for independence. Know your context, but look for creative alternatives to build autonomy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
