How Can Overcoming Anxiety Help You Beco...

Russell Kennedy
About this episode

Guess who's joining me this episode? My amazing friend, Amanda Johnson, an author and CEO of Awaken Village Press, the awesome folks who published my very first book!

We're getting real about anxiety in this one. Amanda opens up about her own experiences and how her anxiety style (spoiler alert, it's the "worried I'll lose everyone" kind) has impacted her life.

Plus, we'll be chatting about that fear of never finishing things – you know, the struggle that keeps us all hitting snooze on those projects, right?

So, if you've ever felt overwhelmed by anxiety, this episode is for you!

Thank you for listening and you can find me on IG: @theanxietymd if you have any questions.
