Podcasts about managing anxiety

In today's Q&A episode, I am answering two powerful parenting questions about teens who are anxious, withdrawn, or pushing parents away.Exploring how to support a 14-year-old who feels intense anxiety entering stores or public places, and why this “spotlight stage” is such a normal part of teen development. Listen in to hear me share how tools like the CALM Technique, predictability, rehearsal, and sensory anchors can reduce anticipatory fear and help anxious teens feel more regulated.We then look at how to communicate with a 15-year-old who shuts down or becomes easily irritated, and why teens often push away the feeling of being small rather than the parent themselves. I offer practical strategies like side-door conversations, low-pressure moments of connection, a warm neutral tone, and the 5:2 ratio to keep communication open and relationship-focused.This episode is a reassuring guide for any parent navigating anxious teens, withdrawn teens, or the normal developmental challenges of adolescence reminding you that connection and co-regulation are the bridge back to closeness.Jennifer's Takeaways:Q&A on Helping a 14-Year-Old with Anxiety (00:01)Strategies for Managing Anxiety in Public Places (04:46)Connecting with Teenagers: Side Door Conversations (09:05)Building Connection Through Proximity and Moments (15:13)Resources and Final Thoughts (18:12)Meet Jennifer KolariJennifer Kolari is the host of the “Connected Parenting” weekly podcast and the co-host of “The Mental Health Comedy” podcast.

Something that worked one day might not work the next. I think if I had to give the people listening right now just one technique that works, it's learning how to use your breath to ground, to create safety even if it's just for a couple of minutes.” “I think the more that we have conversations like this, the more normalized it will become, and the more normalized having these conversations will become. It gives us the empowerment and the invitation to ask questions, to ask our doctors to do the right types of tests, to get different opinions, to explore.” “Radical love to me means embracing the whole of who you are.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Order Rosie's book: YOU ARE RADICALLY LOVED https://www.amazon.com/You-Are-Radically-Loved-Self-Love/dp/0593330153 Order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ Use code ENERGIZED and get $100 off on your first CAROL Bike order https://carolbike.pxf.io/GK3LaE Rosie on Instagram Rosie Acosta on Substack Check out Rosie's Podcast: The Radically Well Podcast  RELATED EPISODES #629: Unlocking Emotional Resilience with Awareness, Lifestyle and Tools to Regulate Your Stress Triggers with Dr. Drew Ramsey #692: Why Emotional Healing is Hormone Healing-The New Path to Midlife Empowerment with Ashley Turner  #565: How to Live in a State of Ease and Flow vs. Overwhelm and Resentment + Reclaiming Your Aliveness with Alexi Panos #598: Break the Cycle of Burnout, Anxiety, and Fear by Tapping into Heart Coherence with Kimberly Snyder

Mindfulness stops being a buzzword when kids learn to use it in real time to calm their bodies, name their feelings, and stay connected to their breath when life gets loud.   Leslie sits down with Julie Freeman, Executive Director of KNOWTICE, to talk about how mindfulness for kids can shape the kind of self-awareness that leads to genuine self-confidence. Julie shares how small, repeatable moments, like pausing to notice a feeling or grounding the body before reacting, help children manage stress, stay present, and access their best thinking. When mindfulness starts early, kids learn they have control over their reactions, which builds emotional strength that grows with them through adolescence and adulthood.   The conversation goes beyond quiet moments and breathing exercises to reveal how these early lessons create confident teens who trust themselves and understand their emotions. Leslie and Julie also reflect on how this work ripples forward into adulthood, showing up in the way confident women lead, parent, and care for themselves. By teaching kids mindfulness now, we give them tools to feel steady in uncertainty and connected to who they are - a foundation every confident person stands on.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Why Mindfulness Matters Now 05:28 KNOWTICE Origin Story and Julie Freeman's Path 11:32 Why Start Early Mindfulness for Kids and Brain Development 16:54 Classroom Basics Mindful Body Stillness and Calming Techniques 22:23 Mindful Parenting and Raising Confident Teens 31:24 The 90-Second Rule and Managing Anxiety in Real Time 43:17 From Mindful Kids to Confident Women 45:42 How to Bring KNOWTICE to Your School Connect with Julie Freeman: Learn More About KNOWTICE Connect with Leslie Randolph: Help your teen cultivate confidence!

Summary / IntroIn this episode, Megan Wimberley sits down with Dr. Tara Fox, Assistant Clinical Professor and Clinical Director at Sacred Heart University, to unpack the complex relationship between anxiety and creativity.Together they explore how anxiety shows up for artists and art business owners, how to recognize when it becomes more than a passing feeling, and how to build tools that help rather than hinder your creative life.They discuss real experiences—from living with anxiety as an artist and business owner to understanding the science behind stress responses. They also share practical ways to find balance, self-compassion, and forward momentum in your art and daily life.Show NotesAnxiety touches so many artists- from racing thoughts in the studio, perfectionism disguised as productivity, or the moment you freeze before sharing a new piece of work. In this heartfelt conversation, Megan Wimberley sits down with Dr. Tara Fox, Assistant Clinical Professor and licensed professional counselor, to unpack the layers of anxiety and what it really means to live (and create) with it.Dr. Fox shares her personal journey with ADHD and anxiety, breaking down the difference between everyday worry and a diagnosable disorder. Together, Megan and Dr. Fox explore why getting a diagnosis isn't about labeling yourself—it's about understanding yourself, and learning how to find your own version of balance.They talk about how anxiety often hides behind ambition and overwork, especially for artists trying to build a career. From the outside, it can look like drive or discipline—but underneath might be fear, self-doubt, or a nervous system constantly on alert. Through laughter, honesty, and vulnerability, they shed light on how our brains trick us into thinking we're “just fine” when really we're running on fumes.You'll hear about the four anxiety responses—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—and how each can show up in an artist's life: sending that angry email after a rejection, abandoning a creative project out of fear, or over-committing to please everyone else. But you'll also hear how awareness and compassion can transform those same patterns into strength—how sensitivity can become intuition, and how anxiety can actually deepen your creativity when it's managed with care.If you've ever felt like your anxiety keeps you from showing up fully as an artist—or if you're simply curious about how creativity and mental health intertwine—this episode will remind you that you're not alone, and that there's strength in understanding yourself deeply.Key TakeawaysAnxiety is normal—but when it consistently interferes with your work, relationships, or well-being, it deserves attention and care.Diagnosis brings information, not identity. It's a tool for understanding, not a label of limitation.Artists often live in the gray area between high sensitivity and high performance—learning to pause, breathe, and check in with your body is crucial.The body keeps the score. Chronic stress patterns can become automatic; awareness helps you break them.Anxiety can fuel creativity when managed well—enhancing empathy, intuition, and depth of perception.Healthy coping means returning to balance, not escaping.Self-compassion is non-negotiable. Your compassion is incomplete if you don't extend it to yourself.Help exists. Finding the right therapist or counselor is a sign of strength, not weakness.Resources & LinksReferenced in this episode:The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der KolkThe Artist's Way by Julia CameronPsychology Today – Find a TherapistOpen Path Collective – Affordable Counseling DirectoryCowgirl Artists of America –...

#378 In this powerful episode, Guy welcomed back Cailin Callaghan to discuss overcoming anxiety, the significance of lucidity in the world, and mastering self-talk. Cailin shared her journey through near-death experiences, overcoming sexual assault trauma, and the grueling withdrawal from medications. She emphasized the transformative power of attention, perception, and taking control of the mind. The conversation covered practical steps to relieve anxiety, the importance of forgiving for personal peace, and how to listen to inner guides. This episode is filled with deep insights on achieving inner peace and manifesting a better reality. About Cailin: At the age of twenty in 1978, I made a trip to the Lustrous Vast of Quantum Imminence where I was met by the guide whom I had, five years before, dismissed as merely the imaginary friend of my childhood. He, The Daemon Michael, is the source Consciousness from which I spring into this world venue, and he and I operate in a few other venues together as well while my body is sleeping here in Earth Venue.  When I met him in the Lustrous Vast, T. D. Michael gave me a life review and a revelation of what Humanity is doing that is destroying their happiness and preventing access to all the powers of their “godly estate.” Empowered by this revelation, and inspired by the Divine Love I became while in the Lustrous Vast, I wielded my Will to literally raise my body from the dead. (It's not hard to do when you know what you are and what the Earth is.) My body had died from head trauma when a stallion had kicked me in the face, knocking me from the back of the running mare I'd been astride, chasing that stallion. My body lay in a pasture with my friend running towards it. As she stood over my still form, thinking I was dead and wondering what to do since we were so isolated, I, like a gusting whirlwind of Will, reinhabited my form, and the body's eyes popped open.  I started right away trying to deliver to the world the Liberating Perspective The Daemon Michael had given me, but it was 1978, and the world was not acquainted yet, in large, with the Quantum principles I/We had to offer.

Can Christians and anxiety go hand in hand? The answer is a resounding yes. Christians and anxiety often go hand in hand. Not because of a lack of faith, but because we live in a broken world in which many things can impact mental, physical, and spiritual health. 400th Episode Friends, I cannot believe this is the 400th episode. When I set out to start the podcast five and a half years ago, I thought I'd share stories of women and men reinventing themselves as entrepreneurs and starting their second phase. My idea quickly morphed into something more. Not only did I want to inspire others to follow their values, visions, and passions and discover a purpose greater than themselves, but I also wanted to help guide them in this pursuit. Because so much of my focus was on building a business, naturally, the content we created became more about business growth advice and stories of success. We added small doses of faith, mental health, mindset, and wellness to round out the content. As I was thinking about what to do in celebration of this episode, because I think it is a big deal to make it this far, someone sent me an email. The email was in response to an email I sent about using journaling as a tool to navigate anxiety. It read: I don't get anxiety, period, if one is of faith in Jesus Christ! Goodbye. The old me would have quickly hit return and tried to convince him that having faith doesn't mean you will never have anxiety. But instead, I thought, 'No, he said goodbye, which made me chuckle; let him go.' People like him cannot be convinced, and it isn't my job to change his perspective. Instead, I decided to take advantage of his lack of understanding to create content that could help many. The combination of Christians and anxiety does not have to cause shame. A perspective like his can cause a person who loves Jesus to feel shame over experiencing anxiety. No one needs an additional reason to feel shame. Living life as a human can result in enough shame, especially when experiencing brain health challenges. I wonder, as I'm writing this, what your thoughts are? Can one be a Christian and have anxiety? My thoughts are that as humans, we are not perfect. We are subject to human dysfunctions mentally, physically, and spiritually. Christians get diabetes. They get cancer, heart disease, autoimmune diseases, and neurological diseases. And yes, Christians experience mental health challenges too. We are not divine; therefore, we can be afflicted by ailments, illnesses, and diseases. To judge a Christian because they have a disease or ailment is simply unkind and results in shame. The key, for Christians and everyone, is to lean into Christ and our faith to navigate anxiety. When we put all of our trust in earthly solutions, we risk idolatry and anxiety rising. Proverbs 17:3 reminds us, "The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, and the Lord tries hearts." As heat refines gold and silver, God purifies us through challenging experiences such as anxiety and emotional chaos in our lives and relationships. Having anxiety isn't a punishment. If we choose, we can use it as a way to grow closer to God and allow Him to sanctify and purify us. Read the full show notes and access all links.

Have you ever asked yourself? Do I show my children, through my actions, how to maintain a healthy marriage and set high standards for future relationships? How do I intentionally teach my kids lessons about money, relationships, and mental health that they aren't learning in school? How do I respond when my kids come to me with emotional struggles? If you ever thought parenting was just about getting your kids to do their homework and behave, think again. The real curriculum happens at home, in the conversations we have with our children. Today, Larry and Ethan dive into the essential life lessons that high school just doesn't teach—think managing money, building real relationships, navigating mental health, and mastering communication beyond the digital world. Along the way, you'll hear personal stories about fatherhood, learning how to treat women with respect, and the power of leading by example at home. Larry and Ethan also shine a spotlight on the importance of old-school manners, effective boundary-setting, and even the art of saving and investing early. Plus, they get candid about handling rejection, repairing relationships, and the sometimes tough but necessary skill of saying “no.” As always, they keep things light and relatable, weaving in fun anecdotes and a dash of family banter Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: Relationship Skills Aren't Taught in School: Ethan shares how Larry modeled (not just talked about!) the importance of treating women with respect—from a proper handshake to introducing himself to his girlfriend's parents, and how these “old school manners” set him apart in today's world. Larry and Ethan agree: the best lessons are caught, not taught. Money Management Early On Makes a Difference: Larry reminisces about starting Ethan and his brothers on the envelope savings system and quarterly meetings with a financial advisor from a young age. It pays off: Ethan feels more confident with money than most of his peers, recognizing the power of starting early, setting goals, and understanding critical concepts like compound interest. Create a Safe Space for Mental Health: Ethan reflects on how being able to talk openly about tough situations—whether it's heartbreak, anxiety, or just a hard day—has helped him develop emotional resilience. Larry encourages parents to model vulnerability, listen, and share stories from their own journey (even the awkward ones). Saying “No” and People Pleasing: Larry and Ethan get honest about people pleasing, time management, and learning to filter commitments. Larry's golden rule: “If it's not a hell yes, it's a no.” They discuss real-life examples, from turning down extra work projects to standing strong against peer pressure. Repairing Relationships & Healthy Conflict: Ethan shares what works in his relationship: addressing conflict calmly, not going to bed angry if possible, but also not being afraid to sleep on things when emotions run high—with the agreement to circle back and resolve it the next day. Whether you're a dad, a son, or just someone looking to live more intentionally, this conversation is packed with relatable humor, honest reflections, and practical takeaways to help you. Here's what research and observation highlight about family communication: Research shows that 86% of adolescents identify parents as their primary model for relationship skills and values. Studies found that 49% of Americans say they frequently agree to things they don't want to do to avoid disappointing others. Studies found that over 80% of teens say the way their parents communicate with each other directly affects how they approach their own romantic relationships.

You don't need to stay in a perpetual state of anxiety - there are resources out there that can truly help. In addition to therapy and other healing modalities, ketamine therapy has been a game-changer for me in managing anxiety. So I invited Kristin Arden and Stephanie Trunzo from Mindbloom for a roundtable discussion on what ketamine therapy really is, how it works in the brain, and why it's worth considering; especially if you're a high-functioning woman navigating anxiety and overwhelm. We dig into what actually happens during treatment, the emotional rewiring that takes place, and how to know when it's working.

How to have the conversations that are most difficult — and most important.Before you can have hard conversations with others, you need to have an honest conversation with yourself. That's the counterintuitive advice from Sheila Heen, who says our own internal narratives often derail our attempts at negotiation and conflict resolution."The first negotiation is actually a negotiation I have with myself about my own story," explains Heen, a Harvard Law School lecturer and co-author of Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most. When entering challenging interactions, she recommends a powerful shift where we consider that our perspective is only one side of the story. "If I can shift my purpose from convincing you of something to just understanding how you see it and why we might see it differently, that actually is more likely to generate a good conversation with less defensiveness for both of us."In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Heen joins Matt Abrahams to explore effective communication in high-stakes situations. From giving and receiving feedback with her “ACE” framework (Appreciation, Coaching, and Evaluation) to recognizing the "degrees of difficulty" in disagreements, she offers practical strategies for having productive conversations even when emotions run high.Episode Reference Links:Sheila Heen Sheila's Books: Difficult Conversations / Thanks for the Feedback  Ep.144 Communicating Through Conflict: How to Get Along with AnyoneEp.136 The Art of Disagreeing Without Conflict: Navigating the Nuance  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:36) - Managing Anxiety in Tough Conversations (04:15) - Why Emotions Matter (07:23) - Shifting the Story We Tell Ourselves (08:41) - Starting with the Real Issue (10:20) - Getting Unstuck in Conflict (13:18) - ACE: The Three Types of Feedback (16:20) - Making Feedback Actionable (18:40) - Finding Common Ground (20:17) - The Final Three Questions (27:32) - Conclusion    *****This episode is brought to you by Babbel.
