Ep2 - Using Your Anxiety

As we start the new year, it’s often a time for people to reflect on the past, and what they might like to change for the future. For people who have struggled with anxiety, trying to factor that in can be difficult. What are we supposed to do with our anxiety? Do we just write that time off, try and move on, and not let it impact us any more? Or can something more come from it?

In this episode, we’re sitting down with Pip - someone who suffered (and still suffers) from anxiety in certain situations. When she found herself more able to deal with the challenges her anxiety brought, Pip chose not to move on from her struggles and ignore them, but instead embraced her calling to study counseling and begin to use her own experiences to help others.

Take a listen to this episode as we chat with Pip and hear her story, and how she’s used the anxiety she’s been through to better serve people now.

We’ve also shared a blog post based on this episode called ‘A Conversation With An Anxious-Girl-Turned-Counsellor’, which you can read here. For more of Pip’s story, check out her piece on our blog, ‘Is Self-Care Biblical?’.
