In today’s episode, Sari and Katy explore five common anxiety patterns that many parents experience. After receiving dozens of “worries” submitted by Sari’s Instagram audience, we’ve distilled them into five key topics. Together, we break down these concerns and offer practical strategies for managing them.

The topics we cover include:

• Anxiety around catastrophic events beyond our control


• Navigating the uncertainty of early childhood transitions and the fixation on milestones and schedules


• Concerns about how our behaviors and patterns might influence our children’s mental health


• Overcoming perfectionism and reliance on safety apps


• Helping our children manage their own anxiety

Tune in to hear insightful conversations for navigating these challenges as parents.
