Anxiety Reset Podcast

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr Rebecca Ray, clinical psychologist and author, to explore what may really be sitting underneath perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the patterns we use to cope with life. We unpack how survival responses learned in childhood can quietly follow us into adulthood — shaping how we behave, relate to others, and respond when we feel overwhelmed.
Rebecca also explains why simply understanding why you do something isn't always enough to change it, and what it actually takes to interrupt those familiar spirals. We also hear about one of Rebecca's own hardest experiences and what helped her move through it. If you've ever wondered why you keep falling back into the same patterns despite knowing better, this episode is for you.
We talk about:
How childhood survival responses quietly run adult life
Why perfectionism, people-pleasing and numbing are trauma
The reason why understanding isn't enough to break a spiral
Rebecca's own hardest challenge — and what helped her through it

In this episode, Georgie gets personal - sharing a life update that's been 18 months in the making. Between time in Bali, her wedding in Italy, and working through a SIBO diagnosis, something bigger has been unfolding underneath it all: a slow, sometimes painful evolution away from an old identity and into a new one. Georgie talks candidly about what it feels like to know a shift is coming long before you're ready to make it - and why clinging to the old way isn't a failure, it's part of the process. If you've ever felt yourself outgrowing a version of you that used to feel safe, this one's for you.

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Sarah McKay — Oxford-trained neuroscientist, educator, and author, whose work is helping us better understand the female brain through every stage of life. Together, we unpack what neuroscience actually tells us about women's brains, from motherhood and matrescence to perimenopause, while busting some of the biggest myths that still shape the way women think about themselves.
If you've ever questioned your memory, your focus, or wondered whether your brain is "changing for the worse," this conversation will leave you feeling informed, reassured, and far more compassionate toward yourself. We also explore the science behind human connection and answer one of the biggest questions of all: are men's and women's brains really that different?
We talk about:
What we know now about women's brains
The brain myths you still believe, debunked
What in-person connection does to your brain
Are men and women's brains different?

In this episode, Georgie shares 21 things she's noticed after a decade of anxiety work with high-achieving women - the patterns, the myths, and the truths that don't usually get said out loud.
From why a diagnosis often never comes, to why successful people are so often anxious, to why "calming down" can actually backfire - this episode is a wide-lens look at what anxiety really is, and isn't.
You'll hear why suppression drives more anxiety than stress does, why the goal was never to eliminate anxiety but to understand its message, and why softness - not self-criticism - is what actually works.
If you're ready to go deeper, The Anxiety Reset Method and Master Your Relationship Anxiety are both available now.
I've got you.

In this episode, I'm joined by the wonderful Olga Newman, whose unique approach to facial massage, fascia release, and breathwork completely changed my perspective on what's possible when it comes to ageing naturally. I was lucky enough to have one of her treatments before we recorded this conversation, and I honestly felt all the tension in my jaw and neck melt away.
Together, we explore how years of anxiety and chronic stress can leave their mark on our faces, why shallow breathing and tension patterns matter more than we realise, and the powerful ways breathwork, fascia release, and self-massage can help us look and feel our best—without relying on Botox. If you've ever wondered how stress is showing up in your face, this episode is full of fascinating insights and practical tools.
We talk about:
What years of anxiety and stress look like on your face
Why shallow breathing and pelvic tension so often show up together
The way chronic tension (or release) can change how we age
How self-massage, fascia release, and breathwork can work better than Botox
