How much do you really know and how much of it have you forgotten you know? We start with a simple question that can quietly change your whole mood: what if your anxiety is not proof you’re incapable, but proof you’re underestimating yourself. From opening a door to navigating new places and new roles, we tease out the everyday knowledge you use on autopilot, then ask why we dismiss it when confidence ma...
What happens when you wake up one day and realise you’ve been living on autopilot, shaped by other people’s ideas of what a “good” life should look like? We sit down as two therapists and gently pull apart the modern obsession with having a big mission, a clear passion, and a dream you can explain in a sentence, then we look at what that pressure does to your identity, your confidence, and yo...
What happens to your mind and your relationships when life goes from comfort to chaos, and you’re forced to start again? We begin with that jolt, then follow the thread that matters most for anxiety relief: the moment you stop fighting reality and come back to what’s here, right now. When the brain keeps time-travelling into regret or worry, the body pays the price, so we slow everything down and talk ab...
That constant voice in your head can sound like “motivation”, but it often turns into a stream of criticism that drains your confidence and ramps up anxiety. We talk candidly about the “chitter chatter” many of us live with, why it can feel non-stop, and how a single harsh thought can set off a whole body stress response. As therapists, we also share a simple intervention you can use in the m...
We talk about the emotions we block without realising and how they can surface later as anxiety, anger, numbness or even physical symptoms. We share personal childhood stories to show how healing starts when we acknowledge what happened and allow ourselves to feel safely.
• emotions we often repress, including anger, sadness, frustration, grief and guilt
• how repressed feelings differ from conscio...
You can be heartbroken and still be alive to the day around you, and that tension is exactly where healing starts. We’re two therapist sisters, and we talk candidly about stress, anxiety, and the quiet habit many of us slip into when life hurts: trying to fast-forward our own days. When your mind is locked on what’s wrong, it can feel impossible to notice anything good, but we explore how attention can b...
“That’s not true” can be the spark for anxiety, arguments, and weeks of silent resentment. We take a different approach: truth is often your personal version of what you saw, heard, and felt, and someone else can experience the same moment in a completely different way. Once you stop treating truth like a verdict, you can start using it as a tool for self-awareness and calmer communication.

We unpack self-sabotage as the sneaky moment we block our own progress right when something good is about to happen. We share real-life examples from dating, work, confidence, and even getting a pet, then map out practical ways to spot the pattern and stop it.
• defining self-sabotage and why it often feels unconscious
• common signs like cancelling plans, procrastinating, picking fights, and m...
We explore why kindness is not just a moral ideal but a practical way to calm anxiety by boosting control, connection, and confidence. We unpack the “helper’s high”, share real life examples where kindness helps and where it does not get returned, and end with a reminder to bring the same kindness to our own inner voice.
• kindness as a simple anxiety relief hack
• the helper&...
We are taking a summer break so we are digging into our previous archives and today we share the importance of hugs.
We count fruit and veg like it’s medicine, yet we ignore one of the simplest forms of human care: touch. We’re asking a cheeky question with a serious point behind it: what would change if you aimed for five hugs a day? Not just romantic hugs either, but safe, gentle, respectful touch that ...
We are taking a summer break so we are sharing one of our most listened to episodes. Here we explore what “living a rich life” really means when you are not wealthy, and why the feeling of richness often comes from attention, gratitude and small choices. We share stories from growing up poor, the money lessons we still carry, and practical ways to spend with more meaning and less anxiety.

We are taking a short summer break and will be back in September. We will be uploading some re-runs and some of our classic episodes.
Sleep does not respond well to pressure, and a busy mind can turn bedtime into a struggle. We are the Anxiety Relief Sisters formerly also known as The English Sisters, and we guide you through a sleep meditation designed to help your body soften, your breathing slow, and your thoughts...
Your clothes are doing more work than you think. They are not just fabric and colour; they are signals, a kind of body language, and a daily lever you can pull to change how you feel in your own skin. We talk about why we started dressing alike, how a consistent look can create a clear identity, and why that “we’re acting as one” feeling can even help clients feel held and supported.
F...
Most of us don’t listen, we just queue up to speak. That tiny shift in mindset explains so many relationship arguments, workplace misunderstandings, and those moments where you feel invisible even while someone is looking right at you. We dig into what real listening looks like when phones are out, attention is split, and “uh-huh” becomes a cover for not taking anything in.
We break listenin...
Motivation gets talked about like a magical mood that either shows up or doesn’t, and we think that belief is exactly what keeps people stuck. We challenge the “I’m not motivated” story and explore a more practical idea from Jeff Haddon’s The Motivation Myth: motivation is often the outcome, not the starting point. When you begin, even imperfectly, you create proof you can do it, and th...
Your world can look bright, heavy, romantic, hopeless, exciting, or flat and the place you’re standing might not have changed at all. We’re talking about the line that stops you in your tracks: we do not see things how they are, we see things how we are. Once you really sit with that, you start noticing how state of mind, emotion, and attention shape your day-to-day reality more than you think.
We...
The most believable lies are the ones we tell ourselves. That quiet “it’s fine” story can feel calming for a day, but it often leaves a low-grade anxiety humming in the background because part of you knows the truth is waiting.
We talk openly about self-deception and denial, and how they show up in everyday life: putting off a doctor’s appointment, ignoring the feelings you do not want...
Perfection looks polished on a screen, but it can feel brutal in real life. We are surrounded by curated bodies, flawless success stories, and now the rising presence of artificial intelligence that seems to do everything faster and better. So what happens to our mental health when we start believing we should be just as smooth, just as productive, and just as unbreakable?
We talk honestly about why being hum...
Some days it genuinely feels like you’re sliding backwards: you lose momentum, you doubt yourself, and the comfort zone starts to look like the only safe option. We challenge that story with a simple idea that changes how you see progress: if you take two steps forward and one step back, you are still one step ahead of where you started. We read our short piece “One Step Ahead” from our book Stress...
If you’ve ever thought, “Why doesn’t my partner get me the way I get them?”, we’re going straight into that uncomfortable truth: we’re asking one person to do the job of an entire community. When your partner has to be your best friend, therapist, problem-solver, adventure buddy, and biggest fan all at once, the relationship can start to feel heavy, tense, and full of disappointme...
