If you've ever felt like you're failing just by feeling anxious, or that your emotions might burden those around you, this episode speaks directly to you.

Drew, a therapist and former anxiety sufferer himself, unpacks why these beliefs are more common than you think and how they can be obstacles in your recovery journey. Through candid discussion, Drew highlights the importance of acceptance over control and how embracing discomfort can lead to breakthroughs. He shares insights from his practice, revealing that many people feel stuck not because they're doing something wrong, but because they're carrying invisible burdens from their past.

He reminds us that while recovery is hard work, it's also about recognising your intrinsic value and giving yourself permission to be kind to yourself.
