Absolutely best quality of psychological education and self help content

completely changinf the way I relate to anxiety. Listening to you explain how I feel daily is calming in & of itself. Excited to learn more about how to rewire the threat response! Thank you
Josh, you’re a voice of calm, reassurance and truth. I’ve been a victim of anxiety for way too many years (15+!!) and just this morning came across this podcast. Let me just say you have given me an optimism and reassurance I have not come across in my vast exploration and search on this subject. You don’t offer pie in the sky quick fixes, BUT assure us with absolute logic and relatable content that we’re not broken, and with a little work, can attain a pre-sensitized state. Music to my ears!!! ... more
