What if anxiety isn’t the problem?
In this thought-provoking conversation, Dr Jodi Richardson is joined by psychologist and author Diante Fuchs to explore why so many people continue to struggle with anxiety despite trying therapy, strategies, and self-help tools. Dee shares her powerful Anxiety Trifecta framework, revealing the mental, emotional, and physical factors that can keep anxiety stuck.
Together, they discuss:
Why anxiety is a signal, not a flaw
The difference between ordinary anxiety and stuck anxiety
How fear of anxiety can keep the cycle going
Why uncovering root causes matters
The role of the nervous system in ongoing anxiety
Dee’s practical EASE Method for responding differently to anxiety
How acceptance, compassion, and engagement can help you reclaim your life
This episode offers a hopeful and refreshing perspective: there is nothing wrong with you, and anxiety may have more to teach you than you realise.
