Anxiety is something many of us live with every day. Whether itâs work, health, family or even the state of the world, thereâs a constant overload of worries that can be exhausting! In todayâs Fearless STEM Careers with me Hayley Loren, I share five simple methods to managing anxiety, to help you feel happier, energised and more in control.
Anxiety is something that I personally experience daily and over the years Iâve learnt ways to manage it. Being honest there isnât one simple solution, but I find having a toolbox of methods you can utilise depending on how you feel can be a huge help. On one day you may find a short walk is enough to relieve your anxiety, but on other days it may feel like nothingâs working. The five methods I share in this episode are my personal safety blanket and anchor that always help me gain relief and "feel myself" again. I share them with an open heart in the hope they can help you too.

If thereâs one thing the Queen has taught me itâs to be unwavering in your purpose. Itâs to show up, to do the hard work and not give up.

Today on Fearless STEM Careers I wanted to do a special brief episode to reflect on the Queenâs incredible career and the inspiration we can take from her.
