Synopsis
A podcast for all: from the always anxious to the occasionally overwhelmed to the painfully panicked. Join your host Kelli Walker registered nurse, Certified Health and Wellness Coach, and former agoraphobe on an anxiety adventure. Learn what anxiety really is, why the best of us can get caught in its web, and how to move past its sticky grip. Casual conversations with Kelli and other experts will include more than reciting daily affirmations or following "five simple steps" to overcome anxiety. Instead, you'll get practical tips, resources, and guidance while gaining a down-to-earth and deeper understanding of what it means to be human an easily overlooked part of truly moving past anxiety. No experience in deep breathing, chakra alignment, or pescetarianism required. Listen in for a good laugh and start feeling a little more human today.

Ep 251. "Woke" Worrying!
07/11/2022 Duration: 29minJoin Kelli and Erica as they chat about "woke" worrying. Is "woke" worrying a legitimate term? Probably not, we're pretty sure we made it up in this episode.

All humans worry, and while some of us have honed this skill more than others (your co-hosts included), we can bring some awareness, intention, and deliberateness (aka woke-ness) to worrying to take the edge off the struggle.
