Experiencing panic attacks and want them to stop? This episode is for you! (It's also for you if you aren't experiencing panic because you're doing everything to try to avoid them at all costs and your life feels pretty limited!)
Back when I was dealing with panic attacks, I tried everything to make them stop—breathing exercises, grounding practices, distraction techniques, you name it. While these things can provide short-term relief, they don't help you build trust and confidence in yourself or lead to long-term healing.
In this episode, I'm sharing how you can achieve long-term relief. I'll provide tips that will help relieve anxiety, prevent panic attacks, and stop them from appearing in the first place, bringing you the relief and freedom you deserve!

So recently my family hasn’t been able to catch a break from all the sicknesses! My 5-year-old, Amelia, had the worst of it when she caught norovirus, and it was the sickest she’s ever been!
This sickness was super hard for her. After spending so much time feeling sick, she developed lots of what-if thoughts that sounded like…
-What if I get sick at school?
-What if I embarrass myself because I’m sick?
-What if I have to throw up again and the sickness comes back?
…If you struggle with anxiety, I’m sure you can relate. But Amelia’s story is such a powerful reminder that anxiety doesn’t discriminate, and it really just wants to protect us.
In this episode, we’ll talk about how I supported my daughter through all of the what-if thoughts, so you can learn how to better support yourself, too.

You might remember Susanne from episode #57 of the podcast. If you haven't given that episode a listen yet, I totally recommend giving it a go before diving into this one.
Susanne joined my Panic to Peace program in April 2022, having struggled with panic disorder and agoraphobia for 16 years. And today, her life looks a lot different - now that she is fully recovered!
One of my favorite parts of running Panic to Peace is the community we've built and the connections I have made along the way. It was so amazing to reconnect with Susanne, catch up, and ask her a few questions. We talked about...
What does life look now? Susanne's pregnancy, delivery, and becoming a momHow did you know you were recovered?What advice would you give to someone who doesn't think recovery is possible for them?And much more!
