A question I’ve been sitting with: How much of my anxiety is mine, and how much belongs to the world I’m plugged into? Everywhere you turn there’s news of injustice, cruelty, hopelessness, trauma and horrifying violence. And I honestly just want to cry and give up. But I can’t. Why? Because there’s a huge part of me that believes that life is good!

Identify your anxiety

I wholeheartedly think with every fiber in my being that life is joyous, sweet and that there are wonderful people on this planet who are eagerly waiting to connect and engage with each other.

Hey guys, I’m over here!
