I recently saw thread by @shanila.sattar who said, “Unpopular healer reality is that many folks get addicted to healing (aka always finding something to fix, improve, change)  Although self-inquiry is amazing , a constant state of “not good enoughness” is really a trap&quot;  And it got me thinking. Last year I was in a cycle of trying to fix myself - not just the 2023 version of me, but past me as well, all in an effort to feel less anxious, incapable, or not good enough.  Episode 84 is about how constantly trying to &quot;fix&quot; yourself, to change your life, and to be more and have more is not only killing your confidence but it&apos;s keeping you anxious.  Help others find this resource so they can calm, confident, and have more fun by leaving a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review wherever you listen.

Ep 85 - Making Friends In Your 30's and 40's

Welcome to the More Than Anxiety Podcast. I’m Megan Devito, and I’m a life coach for high achievers. I help people with big dreams and big anxiety, learn to calm their bodies so they can think clearly, make brave choices, and do big things.&nbsp;You’re going to get so much information about stress and anxiety here, but it doesn’t stop there.&nbsp;Anxiety worms its way into the nooks and crannies of your life so let’s talk about all of it! Not just the typical stuff.&nbsp;Let’s talk about work, connecting with your kids, your partner, or reconnecting with your friends. Let's talk about the world, food, sleep, sex, vacations…because when you’re anxious, anxiety will be a part of all of your decisions, in every area of your life.&nbsp;As someone who lived with overwhelming anxiety for nearly 30 years, I know how it feels to be trapped in the cycle of fear - constantly overthinking everything with your body backing up all those scary thoughts with uncomfortable and sometimes terrifying symptoms. I know what it is like to feel stuck,&nbsp; and hopeless, and to frantically try all the things to fight off how you feel.&nbsp;That’s in the past for me now and it can be for you too.&nbsp;Here’s how I know.&nbsp;Today…I’m on the other side… I’m living a life that I never thought was possible. I’ve gone from insane health anxiety, complete with anxiety and panic attacks, compulsive thoughts and checking, to helping people just like you and me, break free from the cycle of anxiousness.&nbsp; Here, I’m sharing powerful true stories of anxiety and recovery, the skills I use myself every day and that teach my clients that will challenge and inspire you to take action and create the life you’ve been dying to live, and so much more.And, at the end of each episode, you’ll be one step closer to knowing you are completely normal,&nbsp; you are safe, and you totally have what it takes to live life without anxiety calling the shots for you - all this with some humor and major A-Ha moments mixed in.&nbsp;You won’t want to miss a thing so be sure to subscribe and if you like what you hear, leave a five-star review so others can find this podcast and get the help and support they want and need too.
