Waking Up With Anxiety: How to Cope and Take Back Control
Have you ever woken up with that familiar tightness in your chest, your thoughts already racing before your feet even hit the floor?
You're not alone. Morning anxiety is incredibly common—especially for high achievers, perfectionists, and anyone carrying a heavy mental load. In this episode, we’re talking honestly about what it feels like to start the day already in fight-or-flight mode—and, more importantly, what you can do about it.
Together, we’ll explore simple, powerful ways to cope with morning anxiety, from understanding the root causes to implementing mindset shifts and daily habits that help you feel grounded, calm, and in control. You’ll learn why being aware of your emotions isn’t weakness—it’s strength. Because when you start to understand why you're feeling anxious, you take the first step in becoming the most resilient, empowered version of yourself.
Let’s reframe anxiety not as a personal flaw, but as a message—one that, when listened to with compassion and curiosity, can lead you toward real, lasting change.
