2020 in Hindsight

Hi GWA Fam!As 2020 comes to a close, let's stop for a minute and give ourselves a huge hug. We did it, we fucking did it, you guys. There's no reason to list what has gone on this year since we lived it, but instead, we can reflect on what we have learned and what we will take with us in 2021. It hasn't been all bad, there also has been a lot of beauty, but with that being said there's still a lot of growth that needs to be done. Listen along as we discuss our biggest takeaways and our personal growth moments that made us proud.

Allowing Space for Yourself

Hi GWA fam, This week we catch up with one another and check in on how we are doing, really doing. It's not always easy to tap in and check in with yourself, but sometimes ya just gotta do it. We also chat about how important it is to allow space for yourself, to grow, to heal, to really sit with yourself and your feelings. Yep, we are still talking about feelings, because we got a lot of them. Last but not least, we discuss boundaries and how setting them isn't only beneficial for ourselves, but for others as well.Follow usInstagram: @girlswanxietypodcast, Heike @heikeleming and Neg @nneggyFacebookHere is our website if you want to see a cute picture of us!Our email if you want to reach out and ask us any advice on anxiety or just to say what up: [email protected] GWA

Fear of the Unknown

Welcome back GWA fam!Today we are discussing the fear of the unknown. It's a topic that we believe everyone can relate to on some level because if we are being honest most of us can't predict the future. We touch on, well pretty much smother on the topic of what our current climate is in the US of A and what a pivotal moment this is for us. Even though the unknown can be scary at times, it also can lead us to something beautiful. As one wise podcaster once said..."Ignite the little fire stick of hope and carry it around in your belly...but not a real fire stick" -Neg.We hope you enjoy and remember to take a break when you need one, we will get through this together one way or another.

Controlling Control

Hi GWA Fam!In this week's episode, we are talking about control and the sense of powerlessness we are all currently feeling right now. Anxiety can, no IS, a tricky little son-of-a-bleep; and when we feel a lack of power in our life we try to grip onto something that allows us to feel control just to find some peace of mind. Sometimes, when you just let go you can find your sense of calm. Silly anxiety always has us jumping through hoops. We hope you enjoy and find your zen!

Don’t Internalize Me

Hi Friends!On this weeks episode we are discussing how we (Heike & Neg) internalize peoples emotions. It is something we struggle with daily and at times dictates how we live our everyday life…”Oh shit, is she mad at me?…Oh, wait he said this about this person…is that directed at me?”  Ain’t that a shame and vain… We are all just trying to figure out life and live it at the best, so let’s take a deep breath and let that shit go. Easier said than done, we know…but  if we try a little bit everyday we can start finally living for ourselves and not on other peoples emotions.

OCD, No Not Me

Hi friends!Neg here, this episode is very near and dear to my heart! As I type this, the scared pieces of me want to delete the episode entirely. Wanting to hide entirely from vulnerability, but that's not what this podcast is about. OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) is quite literally what it says it is, an obsessive or compulsive behavior or thought that a person feels they need to repeat. As my therapist told me, OCD can take parts or "a territory" of your life away from you. So here I am sharing my story, in hopes that it will make you feel ok with your story!  I've had OCD since I was about 8 years old and am just now getting the help I really needed. This is my brain and it's what I've been dealt, I am taking back the driver seat by telling my OCD that I am appreciative of all the safety it provided but that I can now let it have a break. Your brain is just like the rest of your body, it doesn't need to be perfect. Show your self some compassion. If you've ever experienced OCD, please feel free to reach out to me or watch out for a blog post soon! Research Cognitive behavioral therapy and Exposure Response Prevention/Therapy- Therapist in those fields are great help! If you feel you're at the end of the road with ANYTHING you're experiencing, please reach out, there is always someone who can help, you are loved and valuable.
