Elyse Meyers: Anxiety, Neurodivergence, and Learning to Live with Your Whole Self

Tik Tok storyteller and bestselling author Elyse Myers joins Chrissy to talk about overthinking, anxiety, neurodivergence, and why sharing the most awkward parts of our lives can actually bring us closer to each other. In this conversation, Elise opens up about doing things scared, rewriting old survival patterns, and learning to stay present in the moments she once ran from. If you’ve ever replayed an embarrassing memory on loop or wondered why your brain works the way it does, this episode offers practical tools, gentle humor, and a reminder that you’re not as alone as you think.
