| 10/7/26 | How To Turn Off Anxious Self-Scanning and Checking | EP 354 | Send in a question or comment via text. "How do I stop scanning and checking myself all the time?" If you struggle with anxiety or OCD, you've probably asked some version of that question. Scanning your body for sensations. Scanning for bad thoughts. Checking whether a thought or emotion is the right one. I get asked how to make it stop almost every day. In this episode I tell you the honest answer. You can't turn it off. Even my therapist brain scans and checks. I get migraine aura, an... | 29m 16s | ||||||
| 9/23/26 | Anxiety And The "Almost" Story | Ep 353 | Send in a question or comment via text. "I almost passed out." "I almost made a scene." "I almost ruined everything." If you have an anxiety disorder or OCD, you probably recognize that sentence. The word almost shows up constantly, and treating it like a fact is one of the things that keeps the cycle going. In this episode I want to talk about what I call the almost story: the narrative anxiety and OCD write after a difficult moment to give your escape behaviors and compulsions credit for pr... | 29m 19s | ||||||

| 12/3/25 | When Coping Skills for Anxiety Go Wrong | EP 332 | Send in a question or comment via text. Anxious people love coping skills and coping strategies. Everybody loves to cope. But today we're going to talk about how coping can go off the rails and become part of the problem instead of part of the solution. When you're dealing with chronic anxiety or an anxiety disorder, coping strategies can actually backfire. Every time you frantically reach for your grounding techniques or breathing exercises because you desperately need to calm down, you mig... | 26m 19s | ||||||
| 11/19/25 | Kids, OCD, Anxiety, and Implications for Adult Recovery | EP 331 | Send in a question or comment via text. Children with OCD and anxiety disorders have the same diagnoses as adults, but their experience looks and feels different in important ways. In this episode, I sit down with child anxiety and OCD specialist Natasha Daniels to explore those differences and what they reveal about the fundamental nature of these disorders. When you ask a young child why they're doing a ritual, they often can't tell you. They report vague discomfort or say "it just feels w... | 30m 52s | ||||||

Sometimes life throws real challenges at us—loss, relationship changes, health concerns, financial struggles—that naturally trigger anxiety. But when you're dealing with an anxiety disorder, these moments become especially confusing. How do you tell the difference between "normal" anxiety and disordered anxiety? And what do you do when recovery concepts don't seem to apply? In this episode, we explore what happens when bad things really do happen in li... | 21m 15s | ||||||
