In this episode, we talk about that strange feeling in your stomach when something just feels off. Is it your gut instinct? Is it anxiety? Is your body trying to protect you, or is it reacting to old fears?
Meredith shares a personal story about being invited to dinner and instantly feeling unsettled. There was no drama, just a clear feeling of discomfort that led to the big question: how do you know when to trust that feeling?
Let's explore how instinct and anxiety show up differently, how to read what your body is trying to say, and how to respond when you are not sure what to do. Sometimes your body gives you a quiet no. Sometimes your brain jumps in with panic. Both are trying to help, but they do not always mean the same thing.
If you have ever felt unsure about a gut feeling, this episode will help you slow down, listen in, and remind yourself that you are not overreacting. You are just learning how to trust yourself.All the links: https://linktr.ee/anxietymakesmepoop
