300 Are Intrusive Thoughts Normal or Dangerous Your anxiety toolkit

Ep. 300 Are Intrusive Thoughts Normal or Dangerous?

Welcome back, everybody. I am so excited to be here. This is my first recording since returning back from Australia, after having five and a half weeks in Australia with my family and I could not be more thrilled. I had the most incredible time. I tell you, my cup was overflowing by the time I left. My heart was full. I didn’t realize that my heart was very empty, even though I have so much love in my life and joy in my life, and in many areas of my life, my cup was so full. But I didn’t realize how much my heart needed to go home and actually just live in Australia for five and a half weeks and let my kids learn what it’s like to live in Australia and be in Australia. It was so wonderful. I’m just so incredibly grateful to have had that opportunity. (more…)

So, if you want to hear me and my husband have a good conversation about his experience, that was one of my favorite episodes of all time. (more…)
