#64| Why I Didn't Use Therapy to Overcome Chronic Anxiety and What I Did Instead

In today’s episode, I’m opening up about my personal journey of overcoming chronic anxiety—without therapy. I’ll share why I initially considered therapy, why it didn’t work for me, and what I did instead. This isn’t about discouraging anyone from seeking therapy, but rather about showing another path that led me to normalcy I could only ever dream about. (Please note that I am not a licensed counselor or medical professional—just a minister sharing my personal testimony. If you feel that therapy or professional support is right for you, please seek the guidance that best fits your needs.)
What You’ll Learn:
Clarifying My Beliefs – I had to get real about my faith and shift my prayers from fear-based to faith-filled.
Shifting My Thoughts – I learned how to take control of my mind and focus on what is true and good.
Setting Boundaries – I identified and removed anxiety triggers, like news and social media, to protect my peace.
Taking Action – I changed my habits, including my diet, exercise, and daily routines, to align with my faith and build a new way of living.
With God’s help, I went from being consumed by anxiety to waking up every day in control of my thoughts and feelings. It didn’t happen overnight, but in less than 90 days, my life completely transformed. I pray that this episode really opens your heart and mind to all the possibilities of a partnership with the one, true, living God. Through His power, I was able to conquer my fears and step into a renewed version of myself that I love! You can too, and it all starts with FAITH. 
Thank you for tuning in, and I’ll see you next week for another powerful episode of Panic Meet Peace!

Hey there, and welcome back to the Panic Meet Peace podcast! In today’s episode, I’m getting real with you. This one is a little unstructured because I’m speaking straight from the heart about what I’m doing to make 2025 my best year yet.
I’ll be sharing three key things I’m focusing on this year:
Starting with God – I’m leaning into my faith more than ever and working on building my confidence in Him.
Digging into My Why – I’m being intentional about my purpose and letting go of anything that doesn’t align with my goals.
Taking It One Day at a Time – I’m learning to give myself grace and focus on what each day requires instead of getting overwhelmed.
This episode is all about starting from within and letting God guide us through transformation. I talk about renewing my mind, breaking bad habits, and embracing my goals in partnership with Him.

#57 | My Anxiety Story and Why God Led Me to Start This Podcast

It's a new year! Let's kick off this new year with a new you.... an Anxiety FREE you. 🫶🏽
Anxiety is one the most common, silent battles millions of people around the world are suffering from. And I was, unfortunately, one of them. 
Every day, I suffered from overthinking, stress that led to stomach issues, panic attacks that sent me running to the ER thinking something was wrong, only to find out that everything was fine, and so much more. I had enough!
My last trip to the ER, the doctor mentioned anxiety to me. I looked into it, and wouldn't you know? All the symptoms I was experiencing were listed right there in front of me. 
Finally, I decided that this wasn't the path I wanted to be on any longer. I partnered with God, and he led me to overcoming anxiety by using the one thing I had and didn't know how to use.... FAITH! 
If you or a friend is silently suffering from anxiety attacks, you're not alone. I pray my story of victory over it will encourage you, inspire you, and lead you to peace again. 
Without further ado, let's dive in!

#56 | 3 Steps to Identify What Boundaries You Need To Set to Protect Your Peace

Hey there!
Merry Christmas!!! This is my absolute favorite holiday, FYI.
It celebrates Jesus, love, benevolence, and unity. Which are all a few of my favorite things! (cue music)
My gift to you today is a method to protect your peace and banish those holiday anxieties by setting biblical, peaceful boundaries!
I realize that there are some debates about whether boundaries are good or bad. In my experience, and searching of the Word, I have found enough evidence that boundaries are good.
HOWEVER.
These are not boundaries for other people or against them. These are set by you and for you, my friend. You need peace of mind. You want to be free of Anxiety. Now is your time to take action.
Proverbs 4:23 "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it."
 
Here's the thing. This is not making a fearful decision.
This is making an executive decision about your peace.
A king does not have guards because he's a coward. A king has guards because he is protecting his kingdom.
That's you, my friend. You are the king (or queen!👑)of your kingdom, and you need to set up some guards to protect just that.
