Mind Pilot Episode 86
When you only have one way to cope, injury, schedule changes, or a moved away friend can leave you stranded. In this episode, Dr. Jana Price-Sharps teaches how to diversify your coping, pick strategies that truly lower anxiety, and avoid helpers that accidentally inflame it. You will hear why calling an anxious friend can escalate panic, how a glass of wine can turn into a bottle after a rough day, and what to try instead, from happy playlists and favorite photo albums to getting outside, mowing the lawn, fishing, or crafting. Use a simple three by five card to list five or six reliable options, then reach for it when your brain is spinning, so your body can recalibrate and your sleep, mood, and digestion improve.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
