Making Anxiety Your Friend

Welcome back to the Wake the F*ck Up Podcast! This week, Alix and Dr. David Long are in the hospital as Alix undergoes a fetoscopic ablation of the vessel with Dr. Papanna at UT Memorial Hermann, addressing Vasa Previa. If all goes well, Alix will be on 3-4 weeks of bed rest before the arrival of their sweet baby girl. In their absence, Wayne Taylor and Katie Coffee will be taking over the podcast.

In this episode, Wayne kicks off a deep dive into his lifelong battle with overwhelming anxiety attacks. We explore the reality and physical symptoms of anxiety, discussing how it manifests in the body and strategies for managing it. The conversation leads to the powerful conclusion that understanding, acceptance, and treating anxiety like a familiar friend can transform your experience with it.

Katie shares her insights on social anxiety, particularly how it can manifest in overindulgence. Together, Wayne and Katie provide a comprehensive look at how anxiety impacts various aspects of life and offer practical advice for navigating these challenges.
