Welcome back to the Vortex, sweetest listener! Today we are talking about an all too familiar topic: ANXIETY. We kick it off by sharing the witchy synchronicity that led us to this conversation... hint hint: soul sister telepathy is becoming a very real thing. We dive the heck into it with the remembrance that our body is SO WISE, and anxiety is one of its many ways of communicating that something is out of whack. Maya reminds us of her lifelong journey with anxiety and the Mount Everest she climbed, overcoming daily panic attacks between the ages of 5 and 10. Elle speaks to her beef with pharmaceuticals and reaching for band aid solutions instead of root cause healing. As always, there's nuance to it all.
We take a deep look at the way society urges us to bypass our feelings in service of pushing forward, and how anxiety-causing that inherently is. We express our deep belief in the importance of taking time to listen in, feel, and address anxiety as holistically as possible (and IF that includes bringing Western medicine into the holistic mix, that's PERFECT). We round it out by discussing what it looks like to design lives that are as anxiety-proof as possible. Epic card pulls bring us home! We love you!
