This is one of the best podcasts, for understanding and dealing with anxiety. Thank you so much guys. You literally have saved my life ❤️
Please keep more coming!! This is a topic the society needed. Everyone who is working on mental health, physical health and mindset growth needed to start with trauma healing from within.
You guys are amazing! I’ve recently been struggling with anxiety, but more so depression. Whenever I came across your tiktok page, your videos spoke to me, so I started digging a little deeper and found out you had a podcast. I have yet to finish all of your episodes, but every single one of them I have listened to so far has helped me dig a little deeper into my thoughts and actions(which is what I am in need of). I currently see a therapist of my own and she is amazing at breaking down things ... more
These podcast are sweet and short. It has helped me a lot and I hope there are more episodes to come. Thank you for everything.
Need more content like this. Hopefully, there will be a ton more coming!
Seriously…most of us don’t have the time to sit through hour long podcasts. I personally don’t retain much with a long podcast. I love that these are very to the point and under 15 minutes. When they say no fluff…they mean NO fluff.
I highly recommend these for everyone. For me, they get me through between appointments with my therapist and give me some reassurance when I need it.

I kept trying to look for something to listen to that might help me overcome it and had no luck till i saw your podcasts🙌🏼
2 great guys, though one sounds a little slow. Love the wisdom
Short and practical. Most of all. Useful.
Amazing content, very to the point and so relevant for everyday problems. This podcast stands above the rest!
They get right to the point and being helpful information.
Great stuff! Fast-paced. To the point. Relevant. Helpful content. The dialogue format was very inviting and held my attention. Sounds like there’s going to be a lot to learn from this series.
I love the quick hitting, on the go, to the point messages. Makes it easy to listen on a drive in to work and it’s easily deciphered. Well done
Loved the laid back and unforced discussion on anxiety in the first episode — it feels like I’m sitting in the living room with Cody and Tucker. Little nuggets of truth littered throughout.
