Sign up to Owning It Real Time HERE This is a solo episode where I bring listeners up to date on how I've been feeling with anxiety and depression. Depression is a new experience for me but one that has been very much due to circumstance lately. Here I talk about parenting anxiety, parenting your anxious child and the basic necessities of self care when all else goes out the window.

Sign up to Owning It Real Time HERE This is an episode I recorded a few weeks ago with the brilliant Dr Leah Katz. She's a clinical psychologist and bestselling author (her book is called Gutsy), she's been on the show before to talk about people pleasing, but here we are talking about relationship anxiety, but more specifically anxiety in our friendships which I think is a hugely under explored topic. We also touch on how to communicate your actual anxiety either to a friend or in a romantic relationship but as I say the thrust of our chat is on friendships and something I was really excited to learn about: dual realities. One of my favourite anxiety discussions of late.
