  • Welcome to Your Anxiety Toolkit.

  • I'm your host, Kimberly Quinlan.

  • This podcast is filled by three main goals.

  • The first goal is to provide you with some extra tools to help you manage your anxiety.

  • Second goal, to inspire you.

  • Anxiety doesn't get to decide how you live your life.

  • And number three, and I leave the best for last, is to provide you with one big, fat, virtual hug.

  • Because experiencing anxiety ain't easy.

  • If that sounds good to you, let's go.

  • Stop white-knuckling your anxiety and do this instead.

  • Right now, if you are gripping the steering wheel, if you're clenching your jaw,

  • or maybe you're just holding your breath, you are white-knuckling your anxiety.

  • And I need to tell you something.

  • It is making everything worse.

  • Now we have a lot of research and I have a lot of clinical experience and evidence that show that white knuckling only fails.

  • But I have some good news.

  • We now know what to do instead.

  • So today I want to share with you the hidden physical and mental signs that you are white knuckling through your anxiety,

  • your panic and your intrusive thoughts.

  • I also want to show you why it feels like it's the only way that you can manage your anxiety.
