Description

Are you a parent drowning in anxious thoughts while trying to build something meaningful? In this episode, life coach Megan shares her incredible journey from 30 years of debilitating anxiety and panic attacks to complete freedom - and the exact moment everything changed.


What You'll Learn:

  • The one realization that instantly stopped decades of panic attacks
  • Why learning MORE about anxiety keeps you stuck (and what to do instead)
  • The "sweaty pickle" exercise that helps you identify and manage anxious feelings
  • How to teach your kids to handle their emotions using the same techniques
  • Why your anxiety might actually be grief or love in disguise


Perfect for parents who:

  • Feel overwhelmed juggling family and personal goals
  • Experience health anxiety or constant "what if" thinking
  • Want to break the cycle before passing anxiety to their children
  • Are tired of googling symptoms and need a new approach
  • Feel like they're drowning in their own thoughts


Megan went from taking anxiety medication for over 20 years to helping other parents create an "exit ramp" from the mental traffic circle. Her approach isn't about managing anxiety - it's about understanding you have the power to choose your thoughts and reclaim your life.
