Humble the Poet: Transform Your Relationship With Anxiety (6 Strategies for Overthinkers

Humble the Poet: Transform Your Relationship With Anxiety (6 Strategies for Overthinkers

What usually makes you feel anxious?

How do you calm yourself when you’re worried?

Today, Jay welcomes back for the third time, his good friend Humble the Poet. This time Jay and Humble unpack the rich wisdom from his latest book, Unlearned: 50 Simple Truths to Help Overthinkers Feel Less Stress and More Calm. Their candid, soulful dialogue offers a compassionate exploration of anxiety, emotional resilience, and personal growth.

Humble begins by reframing anxiety not as a condition to be cured, but as a signal for deeper self awareness. Rather than diagnosing anxious feelings, he encourages listeners to build a new relationship with anxiety, one rooted in curiosity, compassion, and personal empowerment. Through engaging stories and honest reflections, Humble emphasizes that anxiety often arises when our minds overestimate threats and underestimate our own capabilities. Humble emphasizes that managing anxiety isn't about eliminating it, but about strengthening our ability to face it, while building resilience through consistent, courageous actions.

Humble recounts his raw and personal experience of how familial expectations and childhood coping mechanisms continue to shape adult anxieties. Together, they talk through setting boundaries with loved ones, not as acts of rebellion, but as invitations for healthier relationships. Humble poignantly differentiates between true guilt and people-pleasing, and how the latter can sabotage our sense of self.

In this interview, you'll learn:

How to Reframe Anxiety as a Signal, Not a Problem

How to Set Boundaries Without Guilt

How to Turn Curiosity Into Courage

How to Stop People-Pleasing and Start Honoring Yourself

How to Get Comfortable With Uncertainty

How to Find Belonging Instead of Forcing Fit-In

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, or simply curious about how to manage anxiety differently, this episode is a compassionate and energizing guide to becoming “Unanxious”, one empowering truth at a time.

With Love and Gratitude,

Jay Shetty
