It can be lonely to feel like you're the only one who struggles with something. For the longest time, that's how co-host Liz felt, too, as she struggled with anxiety that turned her days upside down. Liz opens up with producer Amy as they talk about Liz's journey with anxiety and how it's affected her life. They talk about the concrete steps that have helped Liz move through hard moments, how she's learned to become her own best advocate and how to care for herself well.   PS: if you're struggling with anxiety and mental health, there's help for you. Talk to your doctor and mental health provider for guidance and next steps. Reach out to a friend or loved one for support. ❤️   Thanks to our episode sponsors!
