Description

Okay, confession time. This episode? It’s one of those episodes—the kind you always tell me you love most. The unscripted, emotional, straight-from-the-heart kind. Recorded from my bed, with a lump in my throat and no filter.

I’m taking you back to the night I truly believed I was going to die. What started as a weird gut feeling after a pizza night turned into vomiting, convulsions, numb limbs, and a hospital visit that I’ll never forget. But what I didn’t know then was that I was experiencing a full-on panic attack.

This episode isn’t just me rehashing a scary story—though, yeah, it gets very real. It’s about:

  • what I learned in the middle of that storm
  • how to recognize when your nervous system is overwhelmed
  • what to do in the moment to stop the spiral, 
  • and why this experience helped me understand anxiety in a whole new way.

If you’ve ever felt like you're too much, too sensitive, or like your anxiety is running the show, please listen to this. You’re not broken. Your body isn’t betraying you. You’re not alone—and there is a way through.

So grab your cozy blanket, settle in, and let’s talk about how to stop a panic attack before it even starts.
