Do you know that painful feeling when you have to cross a busy city center and it feels like all eyes are on you?

Or that intense discomfort walking into a room full of people at a party that is already in full swing, like you're exposed, like you don’t belong there?

That’s the quiet torment of social anxiety. And if you’ve felt it, you’re not alone.

But… what if it didn’t have to be this way?

What if you could feel calm, grounded — even confident — in those same situations… without having to fake it?

In today’s episode, I’ll break down the hidden trauma cycle behind social anxiety.

And by the end, I’ll show you two powerful ways to begin breaking free from it — for real.
