In a world that’s constantly demanding more, learning how to quiet anxiety and reconnect with your purpose has never been more important. In today’s episode, I sat down with Dr. Martha Beck—bestselling author and speaker who Oprah calls “the smartest woman she knows”—to talk about something that affects so many of us: anxiety. But not just how it shows up in our lives—more importantly, how to understand it, move through it with kindness, and use it as a compass toward discovering your true purpose.

Dr. Beck drops wisdom on the neuroscience of anxiety, the traps of our left-brain-dominated society, and how small acts of kindness (toward ourselves!) can lead to massive transformation. From her radical year of living without lies to the science of shaking out stress, this episode is filled with both aha moments and practical tools to move from panic to peace.
