As the year comes to a close, it’s normal to feel a mix of emotions, pride for what we’ve accomplished, frustration over what didn’t go as planned, and maybe a little anxiety about what the next year will bring. Holidays, family gatherings, and all the social pressure to look, feel, or perform a certain way can make those feelings even stronger. Sometimes it shows up as racing thoughts, a tight chest, or that critical inner voice about your body or choices.

To help make sense of it all, I’m talking with Amoya Robinson, a mental health therapist. We get into why anxiety shows up, how it can affect our daily lives and body image, and share practical ways to manage it without piling on more pressure. LISTEN UP!

The Flourish Heights Podcast was made for women, by women. To be empowered in health starts with a true connection with your body. Join Valerie Agyeman, Women’s Health Dietitian as she breaks through topics surrounding periods, women’s nutrition, body awareness, and self-care.
