Emma Varvaloucas, executive director at The Progress Network and former executive editor at Tricycle Magazine, joins me! We talk about catastrophizing, worst case scenarios, how trying to figure out where anxiety comes from can sometimes cause more anxiety(!), volatile childhoods causing a need for control, how to accept reality AND work for change, and other stuff. You can find The Progress Network at theprogressnetwork.org. Highly recommend. As always, feel free to get in touch at theanxietylab@gmail.com or on Instagram @sagarbot. Music by Niall Connolly.
