  • The BEST podcast

    This is the best podcast I’ve ever heard on the topic of anxiety. When I feel anxious I hear Kimberley’s voice in my head reminding me that “today is a beautiful day to do hard things!” Overcoming anxiety isn’t easy, but it IS possible! Start here with Kimberley!

  • Good content - bad production

    I really want to like this podcast, but the production is really distracting. The intro music is WAY too loud and makes it impossible to hear what Kimberly is saying. It also seems like the ad breaks are automatically put into the middle of every episode, which sucks because sometimes that means they’re crashing into the middle of a meditation! It feels really disruptive and gross to have your meditative state broken for an ad. The interviews could also use some cleaning up for clarity and ease ... more

  • A Must Listen 😊

    I love this podcast! Kimberley is wise, compassionate and very practical. She always provides simple steps you can incorporate right away. I always feel encouraged by her podcasts. And I love that she introduced me to Margaret Rutherford and the concept of perfectly hidden depression.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

498 When ERP Feels Impossible: How DBT Can Help (with Rebecca DeLeon)
Q: Can you explain what DBT is and how it complements ERP without replacing it?
DBT combines cognitive behavioral principles with acceptance to meet clients where they are; it provides skills to tolerate distress, regulate emotions, and maintain engagement with ERP, which makes exposure work more sustainable and less overwhelming.
493 Why Medical Tests Don't Fix Health Anxiety (And What Actually Does) with Ken Goodman
Q: How do you differentiate health anxiety from somatic symptom disorder in day-to-day life?
They're often overlapping; treatable as a shared issue focused on preoccupation with symptoms. The key is recognizing persistent pattern of catastrophic thinking and excessive worry about illness, which guides you toward a mind-body approach rather than endless testing.
494 OCD Has a Strategy. Here's How to Beat It (with Reid Wilson)
Q: What does living in defense actually do to a person over time? What does OCD take from people if they don't learn to play offense?
Living in defense exhausts a person, narrows attention, reduces capacity for meaningful tasks, and makes it harder to engage with life. The guest argues for reframing OCD as a challenge to overcome by building a proactive framework and by externalizing the disorder, so people can act decisively rather than reactively.
490 The Anxiety Trick That's Derailing Your Recovery with Drew Linsalata
Q: Where can listeners learn more about you and your work?
Drew invites listeners to visit theanxioustruth.com to access his books and podcast, offering more resources and guidance.
490 The Anxiety Trick That's Derailing Your Recovery with Drew Linsalata
Q: What strategy or steps would you encourage them to take in that moment when the rebuttal compulsion shows up?
Kim and Drew advocate grounding in the present moment, labeling physical sensations, and tracing back to the fact that feelings don't equal danger. They suggest returning to the core action of the skill and using values as a guide, rather than yielding to fear.
