#233 How Dr. Lisa listens to Anxiety All Day Without Getting Triggered?

About this episode

Dr. Lisa discusses how to listen to others' anxiety without becoming triggered and the importance of emotional boundaries in recovery.

One of the questions I'm asked most often is, " Dr. Lisa, how do you spend all day listening to people talk about their anxiety without getting triggered yourself?" The trust is that years ago, it probably would have. But Recovery changes more than your symptoms - it changes the way your brain responds to fear. In this episode, I'm sharing why other people's anxiety no longer becomes my anxiety, what healthy emotional boundaries look like, and how learning to trust your brain and body changes everything. Because the goal isn't to avoid conversations about anxiety. The goal is to reach a place where they no longer feel threatening.
