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.

A simple, effective strategy you can use to overcome overwhelm
As anxious high achievers, we can typically identify when we’re feeling anxious - which can seem like most of the time! But, can you identify other emotions or feelings? Are there nuances of emotions similar to anxiety that you’re labeling as anxiety? Are you feeling things that are similar to anxiety, that you’re labeling as such - but really they are something else?
In this episode, we will discuss how to identify our emotions, and then sit with them. I promise, it’s not as scary as it may sound.
I hope this episode helps you, friend!

We know that there are so many strategies available to us to help fight the things in our lives that cause us anxiety. Right? We know what the tools are. We have read about all of the tips. We have saved screenshots of the tricks.
But how often are we just getting down to basics and doing what we know we should be doing or not doing what we know we shouldn’t be doing? How much do we take the advice we dish out to others about what to do when one is struggling? When are we putting to use the tools we have learned, the tips we have read about, or the screenshotted tricks waiting in our phone’s camera roll for when they may be needed?
In this episode, I share one strategy I’ve used to successfully overcome overwhelm, and get quick relief from the anxiety it causes.
I hope this episode helps you, friend!

Do you have anxiety around sleep? I have talked with so many women who describe worrying about being able to fall asleep when they go to bed. Or they worry that they will fall asleep initially, but if they wake up during the night, then they worry about being able to fall back asleep. Anxiety can be exacerbated by lack of sleep. It can be a vicious cycle.
And we all know how important sleep is to our overall health and wellbeing. If we aren’t sleeping, then everything is just harder.
In this episode, I share with you a couple of tools that I have successfully used that you can also use to help you fall asleep, or get back to sleep.
Included in these tools, I mention:
Insight Timer
Nothing Much Happens
