Each week on Two Anxious Girls, we’ll talk about life, work, motherhood, fertility, relationships, and all the chaos in between, from the perspective of therapists who are very aware of their own dysregulated selves.New episodes every Monday!

Episode Is All Stress Bad? Understanding Stress, Anxiety & Your Nervous System Cover

Is All Stress Bad? Understanding Stress, Anxiety & Your Nervous System

When you hear the word stress, do you automatically assume something is wrong? In this episode, we unpack a surprising truth: not all stress is bad. In fact, some stress can help us grow, adapt, and rise to important challenges. The problem is not always stress itself; it's what happens when stress becomes chronic and our nervous systems never get a chance to recover. Together, they explore: ✨ The difference between stress and anxiety ✨ Why excitement and anxiety can feel so similar in the body ✨ The difference between eustress ("good stress") and distress ✨ Acute stress vs. chronic stress ✨ How chronic stress can keep your nervous system stuck in survival mode ✨ Why anxiety often lingers even after the stressful situation is over ✨ Practical ways to support your nervous system and recover from stress If you've ever thought, "I'm stressed, so something must be wrong," this episode offers a different perspective, one rooted in compassion, nervous system awareness, and understanding how our minds and bodies respond to life's challenges.

Episode Body Image, Perfectionism & The Anxiety Loop Cover

Body Image, Perfectionism & The Anxiety Loop

Why does anxiety so often convince us that if we could just fix one thing about ourselves, we'd finally feel okay? In this episode, we are exploring the connection between body image, perfectionism, and anxiety, and how our bodies can become a place where anxiety tries to create control. We unpack: * Why appearance often becomes a target when life feels uncertain * How comparison spirals fuel anxiety and self-criticism * The hidden link between productivity, discipline, and self-worth * Why perfectionism keeps moving the finish line * How compassion-not punishment-helps break the anxiety loop As therapists, we see this pattern show up constantly in our work. As anxious humans, we've lived it too. If you've ever found yourself believing that confidence is just one more accomplishment, one more pound, or one more "fix" away, this conversation is for you. And remember: Your body is not a problem to solve, and your worth is not something you earn through perfection. Follow, rate, and review Two Anxious Girls wherever you listen to podcasts.

Episode Why Anxiety Makes You Need Control | Control Is the Anxious Girl’s Love Language Cover

Why Anxiety Makes You Need Control | Control Is the Anxious Girl’s Love Language

Why anxiety makes us plan, micromanage, and struggle to let go. In this episode of Two Anxious Girls, we are talking about the sneaky way anxiety disguises itself as “being responsible,” “having it together,” or simply “caring a lot.” We are unpacking the connection between anxiety and control, including: * Why planning can feel emotionally protective * The urge to micromanage partners, kids, schedules, and outcomes * Why uncertainty feels so uncomfortable for anxious minds * The illusion of safety that control gives us * What healthy surrender actually looks like Twoanxiousgirlspodcast@gmail.com @TwoAnxiousGirlsPodcast ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Episode Why Your Nervous System Is Addicted to Chaos Cover

Why Your Nervous System Is Addicted to Chaos

Why does calm sometimes feel uncomfortable… or even wrong? In this episode of Two Anxious Girls, we explore a powerful and often overlooked concept: how your nervous system can become conditioned to chaos and why stability can feel unfamiliar or even unsafe. We break down the clinical patterns behind this experience, including nervous system conditioning, attachment dynamics, and how early or repeated relational experiences shape what feels “normal” in adulthood. We also explore how healing actually works, not by eliminating your reactions, but by retraining your nervous system to tolerate and eventually trust calm, consistency, and emotional safety. Because healing doesn’t always feel exciting… sometimes it feels quiet. And that quiet is where safety begins.

Episode The Anger Beneath Anxiety: Why Anxiety Can Make You Irritable Cover

The Anger Beneath Anxiety: Why Anxiety Can Make You Irritable

Why do so many anxious women feel overwhelmed, but never angry? In this episode of Two Anxious Girls, we explore a powerful and often overlooked truth: sometimes anxiety isn’t just anxiety, it’s unexpressed anger. Many of us were never taught how to safely feel or express anger. Instead, we learned to stay agreeable, accommodating, and “easy to be around.” But when anger gets pushed down, it doesn’t disappear. It often shows up as overthinking, tension, people-pleasing, and emotional exhaustion.
