The Hidden Physical Causes of Anxiety: Gut Health, Blood Sugar & Nervous System Support
Description
In this episode, I’m getting real about something most women are never told: anxiety isn't just in your head, it's in your body.
From iced capps for breakfast (hi, it me 🙋♀️) to blood sugar crashes and gut flare-ups in the work bathroom, I share how my own anxiety journey had very real physical roots that had nothing to do with “thinking more positively.”
You’ll learn how five body systems influence anxiety, and how to support each one with simple, realistic daily shifts that don’t require perfection.
