Here You Are; Courageous

"We want to know an extraordinary life without the prickling of fear, or the weight of uncertainty that comes along with it. We fight, and we flee, and we freeze, and we forget that this is what it means to be human."

Navigating life with an anxiety disorder can seem impossible. From uncontrollable panic attacks to fear of normal bodily functions, obsessive thinking, chronic avoidance and 'what-if's'. When you have tried everything to feel normal again, only to feel worse than ever before, it's hard not to lose hope.

We are told to fight our fears, to be stronger than our anxiety... but what if the attempt to 'fix' ourselves is only taking us further away from who we truly are? What if the way to feel better was to fully accept ourselves, anxieties and fears included?
Here You Are, Courageous is the invitation back to wholeness that we need now, more than ever.

What people are saying

  • I wanted to let you know that even though I only had a few sessions with you, I felt like our sessions were apart of a turning point for me mainly because you made me feel normal and helped me get rid of the shame that I felt everyday with this. I still have things I need to overcome with anxiety, but it doesn’t feel impossible anymore because I’ve seen how much progress I can make with it.

    - Michaela

  • When I found you, I felt like for the first time in my life there was someone going through exactly the same thing, and I felt so understood. Your videos are the reason why I can leave my house in the morning, the reason why I went back to driving.

    Lucrezia

  • You are the only (literally ONLY) human I know who has come forward and been so transparent about agoraphobia, toilet anxiety, car anxiety and traveling...You've boldly put your fears and guidance on camera and I am so thankful for that.

    Emily

  • This is the first time I have felt seen, heard, and found someone who explained all of it exactly as I'm experiencing it.
