Stop Overthinking: How to Beat Anxiety i...

MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode

Anxiety has a sneaky way of showing up in our love lives . . . whether it’s overthinking a text or worrying about someone’s shifting energy. But what if you could stop anxiety before it takes over?

 

In this episode, Matthew, Audrey, and Stephen get personal as they unpack how anxiety sabotages relationships, from early dating to long-term connections. They explore the roots of anxious attachment, share practical tools for calming your mind, and discuss how to stop catastrophizing when things feel uncertain.

 

If you’ve ever felt tortured by your thoughts or struggled to stay grounded when dating, this episode will help you find clarity, confidence, and peace.
