190: What to Do When You're Spiraling From Anxiety

Ever find yourself caught in a loop of anxious thoughts, panic, or overwhelm? You’re not alone. This used to be me every single day!

In this episode, I get real about what it looks like to spiral, and more importantly, how to compassionately support yourself through it. From reframing your thoughts to taking gentle, supportive actions, I share practical tools and encouragement to help you navigate these tough moments without making things worse.

I dive into:

  • What “spiraling” really looks like (it’s not always dramatic!)
  • The mental, emotional, physical, behavioral, and even existential signs of spiraling
  • Why trying not to spiral often makes things worse
  • How to reframe spiraling so it doesn’t feel like a setback
  • Practical steps to move through a spiral with compassion
  • The role of stress, life transitions, and perfectionism in fueling anxiety
  • Why doing less (not more) is often the answer
