Reframing Anxiety as an Ally

Anxiety is often perceived as a negative experience to be eradicated, but it can actually serve a positive purpose in our lives. Clinical psychologist David Rosmarin suggests that instead of viewing anxiety solely as an enemy, we can transform it into a trusted ally. He emphasizes that many influential leaders, like Winston Churchill and Oprah Winfrey, have experienced anxiety yet turned it into resilience and success. By embracing anxiety rather than fighting it, individuals can build emotional strength and foster personal growth.
