003: the other side of anxiety

What if we reframed anxiety into hyper-vigilance? Would that help us monitor our current state, change the demands on our nervous system and bring us more consistently to safety?

What if we recognised that burnout and/or depression is often a highly probabilistic destination from extended periods of hyper-vigilance?

And, what if, when arriving at that point of breakdown, we recognised we likely placed our hand up (consciously and subconsciously) to our village countless times, so the lost trust and hope is born from social defeat, not a deficit of our identity?

These are some of the lines of inquiry we explore in episode 3 of the podcast entitled The Other Side of Anxiety. Available to listen/watch today on:
