- Always learning
I didn’t find Lynn Lyons until our kids were mostly grown, but that doesn’t matter. Always learning for the now and the future. As a mom of 4 and a world full of anxiety…what a great resource.

I love so much about this podcast and am extremely disappointed in the decision to advertise so many unnecessary AI products.

This podcast has helped me better understand my 10 and 12 year old children's anxiety, as well as my own. Lynn gives actionable strategies that really work on anxious kids. I now have a whole new way to speak to my kids when anxious moments come up. My kids are medicated for anxiety, which definitely helped, but Lynn's strategies were the missing link that have helped get my kids to that next level of getting their anxiety under control. Thank you, thank you Lynn & Robin!!

Apple Podcasts5LnfromLSalUnited States3 months ago - Hands down THE best!
I rarely write reviews, but this podcast deserves all the praise it can get! I discovered this podcast through another trusted podcast I regularly listen to, and I knew I had to give it a try. Since then, it’s one of my absolute favorite ones and I’ve learned so much, not only about managing my older son’s anxiety but also about understanding my very own anxiety better. Last weekend, we went skiing, and my son was refusing, as expected, to go down the big hill. I knew he was ready though, and I ... more
