Not Another Anxiety Show

A podcast for all: from the always anxious to the occasionally overwhelmed to the painfully panicked. Join your host Kelli Walker – registered nurse, Certified Health and Wellness Coach, and former agoraphobe – on an anxiety adventure. Learn what anxiety really is, why the best of us can get caught in its web, and how to move past its sticky grip. Casual conversations with Kelli and other experts will include more than reciting daily affirmations or following "five simple steps" to overcome anxiety. Instead, you'll get practical tips, resources, and guidance while gaining a down-to-earth and deeper understanding of what it means to be human – an easily overlooked part of truly moving past anxiety. No experience in deep breathing, chakra alignment, or pescetarianism required. Listen in for a good laugh and start feeling a little more human today. If you have a question you'd like answered on the show or simply want to learn more, visit: www.notanotheranxietyshow.com.

In this episode Kelli and Erica talk about how focusing on what we're lacking in life, whether that's "things" like money or internal needs like love, security, confidence, or peace (needs anxiety often robs us of), can cause us to make impulsive decisions and choices that further perpetuate this feeling of scarcity. Why is that and what do sugar cane farmers have to do with it? Tune in to find out more!

Join Kelli and licensed psychotherapist April Snow as we chat about what it means to be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) and the relationship it has to anxiety.

This is a valuable conversation even if you don't identify as an HSP because chances are you know someone who is.

Join Kelli and guest Kate Manser to talk about death.

Spoiler alert: Kelli and Kate share their experiences with a once crippling fear of death, and both were able to make it through the conversation without throwing up! So, tune in for a not-so-bad chat about death.
