I break down why anxiety is so prevalent today and why much of it is being intentionally manufactured. I explore the existential and psychological forces driving anxiety - from social media comparison to nervous system overload. I also share three practical tools you can start using immediately to reduce anxiety and regain a sense of internal stability. If you struggle with chronic worry or overwhelm, this episode will give you a new framework for understanding and working with anxiety.
