About this episode
The episode discusses a powerful reframe for dealing with OCD and anxiety by considering the possibility of positive outcomes.
In this episode, I share a simple but powerful reframe that’s helped me in my own journey with OCD and anxiety: What if it goes well? Not unrealistic optimism — just making room for a hopeful possibility. If you’ve ever found yourself bracing for disaster, this conversation will help you think differently this week.
