About this episode

Bella discusses exam stress and coping mechanisms during exam season.

Hi, you’ve got mail from me, Bella 💌 In this week’s episode of You’ve Got Mail, we’re discussing exam stress, anxiety, and how to cope during exam season. As someone who has sat GCSEs, A-Levels, a degree, and a Master’s, I’ve had my fair share of exams. I wish I were one of those cool, calm, collected people who never get bothered, but truthfully, I’ve always been an anxious wreck walking into the exam hall. Whether you’re about to sit your first exam, final exam, GCSE, A-Level, university exam, or you’re listening back and remembering exactly how it felt, this episode is here to remind you that whatever happens, you are going to be okay. We talk about managing pressure, dealing with nerves, mindset during exams, and remembering that your results do not define your worth. Love, Bella x Learn more about your ad choices.
