135: A Lesson in Anxiety From My 5-Year-Old Being Sick

So recently my family hasn’t been able to catch a break from all the sicknesses! My 5-year-old, Amelia, had the worst of it when she caught norovirus, and it was the sickest she’s ever been!

This sickness was super hard for her. After spending so much time feeling sick, she developed lots of what-if thoughts that sounded like…

-What if I get sick at school?

-What if I embarrass myself because I’m sick?

-What if I have to throw up again and the sickness comes back?

…If you struggle with anxiety, I’m sure you can relate. But Amelia’s story is such a powerful reminder that anxiety doesn’t discriminate, and it really just wants to protect us.

In this episode, we’ll talk about how I supported my daughter through all of the what-if thoughts, so you can learn how to better support yourself, too.

Make sure to tune into the full episode for all the helpful goodness!
