Anxiety Uncovered

Anxiety Uncovered is the podcast that helps young people understand and manage anxiety- while supporting the adults who want to empower them to succeed.. Hosted by Joe Rowntree- stand-up comedian, presenter, and anxiety specialist- the show explores what anxiety is, why it affects us, and most importantly, how to manage it. Each episode is packed with evidence-based techniques, relatable stories, actionable strategies, and free resources to help you lead a more peaceful life. This isn’t just feel-good talk- it’s science-backed support, grounded in psychology and neuroscience. Along the way, Joe will be joined by students, teachers, parents, and trusted experts for the honest conversations we all need to have- think of it as getting expert advice from a friend who really understands what you’re going through. Drawing from his academic background in psychology- and his personal journey overcoming PTSD and OCD after a traumatic incident- Joe brings warmth, humour, and deep insight to conversations about mental health-all shared in a relatable style. Whether you’re a young person facing anxiety, or an adult supporting someone who is, Anxiety Uncovered offers powerful advice and fresh perspectives. It’s a reminder that no one has to face anxiety alone- and that together, we can face it head-on, understand it better… and even smile through it.
