Anxiety: the No.1 illness affecting women

About this episode

This episode discusses anxiety disorders as the leading illness affecting women and explores the impact of hormonal changes throughout their lifespan.

This episode is all about the number one illness affecting women, and no its not breast cancer, or arthiritis--its anxiety disorders. This makes sense when you look into the ever-changing hormones women experience across their lifespan. Let's dive into what anxiety is and how to differentiate between normal levels of anxiety and a disorder. While I'm not a psychologist, many of my clients also have anxiety.
