211 | My Journey With Anxiety And Self D...

Devoney Kodad, Self Confidence Coach, Yoga Teacher & Anxiety Therapist
About this episode

Hey sweet friend,

I'm so glad you're here. In today's episode I'm going to share about my journey with anxiety, self doubt, people pleasing, and self worth struggles.

The journey I walked in my twenties of healing dysfunctional family dynamics from my childhood, learning how to accept myself, building my emotional intelligence, & growing my confidence is why I do exactly what I do.

It's why I am a therapist & therapeutic life coach who uses psychology backed mental wellness AND nervous system support to help 20-somethings feel confident AF.

I want to share the most effective tools I learned throughout the last decade with you to shorten your learning curve & create a safe space where you feel seen & supported in your experiences.

I'm also sharing 4 things I'd heavily focus my energy & time on if I was starting my inner healing journey over again.

You'll hear about:

  • the importance of creating a values based vision for your life to be your north star
  • why slow & sustainable is better than overnight quantum leaping
  • how incorporating physical wellness & somatic practices will support your growth

I hope you enjoy this episode!
