Q&A: Does social anxiety go away on its own?

A podcast that gets to the bottom of social anxiety (why it holds us back, how it does so, and what we can do about it) so that you get to the top where you believe you’re worth knowing.&nbsp;The truth is that social anxiety can permeate all areas of your life to the point where you no longer know where “you” begin and where your “social anxiety” ends.&nbsp;Here are some of the topics I'm going to cover in this podcast:- Cognitive distortions &amp; how they affect your social anxiety- Triggers and safety behaviors- The different types of social anxiety- Myths we're holding on toAs much as possible, I combine first-hand experience and my own journey with social anxiety with evidence-based studies and research.&nbsp;My hope with this podcast is that you’re empowered to show up comfortably and confidently as you, whatever that looks like, at any moment.
