'Comfort eating' is one coping mechanism that can bring short-term relief, but leave us feeling guilty, ashamed and lacking in willpower. A classic example of the happiness trap. In this episode mindset coach and nutritionist Carly Taylor helps us to understand why it's common, why it's hard to stop, why more willpower isn't the answer and how to break the cycle. Better You ProgramCarly's links:Carly Taylor Coaching Carly Taylor InstagramCarly Taylor FacebookThanks for listening to this episode of “Well, hello anxiety with Dr Jodi Richardson.”How you can help: If you enjoyed this episode, or gained some useful insight from it, please share it with a friend or family member.

We can just about sum up anxious behaviour in one word - avoidance. When a situation, expectation or experience dials anxiety up, the natural response is to avoid the trigger and retreat to safety. The trouble is, most of what's avoided because of anxiety is actually safe. Beyond safe, so much of what makes life meaningful, affirming and fulfilling is in that zone of anxious discomfort. This is the episode where I talk all things anxious avoidance, how at the very heart of anxiety is a life based around trying very hard to get rid of anxiety, and what to do instead.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, OCD, is widely misunderstood. It's a serious, complicated mental illness, and one that often begins in childhood around the age of 10. For Penny Moodie, intrusive thoughts and the accompanying distress, followed by an overwhelming compilation to 'neutralise' the thought and gain certainty through compulsions, began around the age of 6. In this episode Penny, co-founder of SoOCD.com.au, generously shares what she's learned about OCD, how it affects her life, why it's so often misunderstood and, importantly, what helps. So OCD WebsiteFreedom from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Jonathan Grayson, PhDOCD Clinician NetworkThanks for listening to this episode of “Well, hello anxiety with Dr Jodi Richardson.”How you can help: If you enjoyed this episode, or gained some useful insight from it, please share it with a friend or family member.
