Hi I’m Anxious - Over-functioning, anxiety management, high achieving women, anxiety, overthinking, perfectionism
Welcome to “Hi I’m Anxious.” Are you an over-functioning, high-achieving, over-thinking perfectionist but an amazing woman who also suffers incessantly with anxiety? You are not alone. Hi I’m Katy Dahl and I am an HR professional, business owner, entrepreneur, wife, and mom and I have suffered from anxiety for what seems like forever. For as long as I can remember, anxiety has been part of my life. It’s the ugly little friend that rears its head at the time that is most inconvenient… when I want to be most present with my family, at the high pressure business meeting, when I am awake in bed at night worrying instead of sleeping. Anxiety has crept into otherwise perfect moments in my life and stolen that joy from me. l I was recently diagnosed with anxiety and I found that there were some tools for managing it. I don’t think I’ll ever be free from anxiety, but now I am equipped to overcome it and enjoy life despite it. Together, on this podcast, we’re going to work through mind management, physical health, and getting the support we need. We’re going to hear from experts, therapists, and psychologists, and we’re going to dive into the tools you can use so you can go from “Hi I’m Anxious” to “Hi I’m way less anxious.” So put down that third cup of coffee, swap it for some lemon water, we’re about to get this thing under control.

Sweet soul,
As high achievers, we tend to put off or delay celebrations and fun in our lives, don’t we? We might make sure that celebrations happen for others, or we do whatever we can to help them have an enjoyable experience, but we tend not to do the same for ourselves.
Well girl, I’ve got your back on this one! In this episode, I’m going to tell you about how you can incorporate plans for celebration, fun, and joy into your planning routine. I hope you’ll come listen!
Also - This week I'm hosting a Town Hall for my free Facebook community on Friday January 17, 2025 at 7:00 pm EST/6:00 pm CST. I want to meet you and get to know what you want from the community in 2025. Consider this your invitation to join us!
I can’t wait to connect with you soon!
Wishing you freedom to live the life you want, despite anxiety,
Katy

Sweet soul,
Overthinking can plague you as a high achiever. I know how hard it can be! But in this series, we’ve worked through how to identify when, where, and how overthinking is coming up for you, so you can identify patterns of overthinking. Our next step is to identify one small step you can take to plan and prepare in advance to get through overthinking the next time it comes up for you, or avoid it altogether. I can’t wait to dive into this episode with you to teach you how to do this.

Overthinking - ugh! I know you’re no stranger to overthinking. But, are you aware of all of the ways it shows up for you? In this episode, we’ll talk about ways that overthinking can show up, because recognition is the first step in making change. Your assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to acknowledge how overthinking is showing up for you -and I’m here to help you!

Dear sweet soul,
As a high achiever who struggles with anxiety, I bet joy is not something you find much of in your life. You work hard, but tend to put off things that bring you happiness and contentment.
If you even knew what brought you joy, how would you even find time to do those things?!
Don’t worry, sweet soul. I’ve got your back. In this episode, I’ll share with you how you can find what brings you joy, and also how to fit it into your tight, high achieving schedule.
Wishing you freedom to live the life you want, despite anxiety,

Sweet high achiever!
We are nearing year end, and it’s a great time for you to use a review and debrief to help you get some anxiety relief.
In this episode, I’ll share with you the benefits of using a review, what you can avoid by using a review, and how doing this practice can help you through the struggles you have as an anxious high achiever.
Then, I’m going to help you through a review process!
On 12/01/24 at 7:00 PM EST/6:00 PM CST, I’ll be hosting a Year End Personal Executive Debrief and Review. We’ll work together to review how the year went, what went well, what didn’t go well, and what we want next year to look like. I’d love to have you join me! The link to join is in the Facebook group.
