Video: What If Your Brain Isn’t Broken? Understanding Anxiety and the Human Mind Many people who struggle with anxiety quietly believe there is something wrong with them. They think they are too sensitive. Too reactive. Too quick to panic. But what if your brain is not broken at all? What if it is simply running an older survival system that once helped humans stay alive? Thousands of years ago, the people who noticed danger first were the ones who kept the tribe safe. That s

Video: Why Your Mind Keeps Sending You Anxious Thoughts Most people know how social media algorithms work. Click on one video about anxiety, and suddenly your entire feed is full of them. Your mind is not that different. The more attention you give anxious thoughts, the more your mind assumes they are important. It keeps sending more of them your way. No wonder it can start to feel endless. But what most people have never been told is this: You do not have to engage with ever

Video: You Weren’t Born Anxious: Why Worry Isn’t Your Personality Most people who struggle with anxiety believe it is simply part of who they are. They describe themselves as someone who has always worried. Someone cautious. Someone whose mind never switches off. But if you look closely, something interesting appears. You were not born worrying about your job, your relationships, or your future. When we are young, the mind simply starts finding things to worry about. First it

Triggered by anxiety? Here’s why that’s not a setback We’ve been taught that if something triggers us, if a wave of anxiety hits out of nowhere, it means we’re not coping well. That we’re stuck. That there’s something wrong with us. But that’s not what’s happening. In this video, I share a personal story about something traumatic that happened when one of my dogs was hit by a car (he survived, don’t worry). What followed — the anxiety, the flashbacks, the fear of repeating th

In this short video, I share a powerful personal story about one of my closest friends, who is currently facing a potentially life-altering health crisis. It’s a stark and emotional example—but also a deeply human reminder of something important: 💡 We are far more resilient than we think. I explore: Why we think  we can’t handle certain things—and why that’s just the mind talking The difference between imagining a crisis and actually living through one How real strength show

Have you ever felt completely consumed by worry or anxiety about something that hasn’t even happened yet? Your mind racing, trying to figure it out, plan it out, solve it ahead of time? If so, here are two powerful questions you can ask yourself: Is this happening now? Often, our anxious thoughts are about something in the future—a flight, a job interview, a conversation, an event. But when we stop and ask, Is this actually happening right now? , we create space between ours

Always running late? Stressed before the day even starts? It might feel like the problem is your schedule—or your life—but it’s not. What’s really driving the rush and overwhelm is something much deeper (and far more solvable). In this video, I break down what’s actually  happening when you feel frantic, behind, or like you can’t keep up. It’s not about time. It’s about a state of mind that makes everything feel urgent—even when it’s not. This insight can change how you exper

In this video, Suzie Yeulett and I dive deeper into the topic of anxiety at work, a common issue that many people face. We discuss how situations like high-stake meetings or presentations can feel intimidating and often trigger fear.

So much of our experience of anxiety and worry is about things that haven't even happened yet. It can feel useful to think about what might happen in preparation for challenging events or feelings.
